ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

I have been experiencing LAG on every character I have made. Whenever I go to an area with a lot of monsters my character will lag for about 5-10 seconds with every tile move. I have noticed that it has gotten worse as I have progressed the game.

My current character, a lvl 31 Temporal Warden is exploring Ardhungol and this issue is ruining the game for me. After clearing the first level the lag lessened, but now that I am on the second level its a pain to do anything.

I have tried changing the graphics and video options, and the following fix:

Ok people who have lags can you please try that:
Edit the file game/loader/pre-init.lua and add
Code:
collectgarbage("setpause",100)
collectgarbage("setstepmul",400)
collectgarbage("restart")


at the top of it

Then run the game and see how it feels"

Nothing seems to work, HELP?

When I left the level where i was lagging it went down considerably. The lag seems to affect certain levels..?

What version are you playing? b30 had a known issue that would result in pretty heavy lag.

I have lag in almost every level as well (b31).
But not 5-10 seconds per move, rather half a second per move. Bigger/fuller levels lag more.
5-10 seconds lag per move only on the world map, when saving.
I thought it was just my old laptop (dual core AMD Turion 1.6gHz, 1Gig Ram) that's just being old,
but for completeness I'll report it here.

Frumple:

Seems like I'm using the outdated version b30. If I download b31 will my characters from b30 still work?

No.

The issue is related to enemies with blind-inflicting talents. If you kill them, it will stop.
