| Summary | 0005261: 101.0.1-408 QTPFS out of memory when loading Epic | ||||
| Description | I tried to load the map Epic with ZK using QTPFS pathfinder. I looked at the memory usage and, within a second of 'generating path cache' the memory usage of Spring climbed to 3.7GB and crashed. | ||||

As in, you are handling the out of memory so perhaps the intention is to fix it. I prefer the paths generated by roam to those generated by the default pathfinder. |
|
|
It definitely used to be be possible to play Epic without needing a vast amount of RAM - and iirc that map was created in days when computers wouldn't normally have >2Gb. |
|
|
ROAM is a rendering technique. path cache has nothing to do with it. |
|
|
I think you meant QTPFS, and indeed it has a huge memory footprint, especially on large maps, and isn't entirely maintained. |
|
|
does it work with less threads? --- snip --- [f=-000001] [PathManager::InitNodeLayersThreaded] using 12 threads for 22 node-layers (uncached) --- snip --- with 12 threads "only" ~333MB per thread is required to hit the 4G limit. |

QTPFS works best on maps with contiguous flat areas, Epic fits the exact opposite mold as a giant random-esque maze. The performance would also be pretty bad even if you could load it (memory consumption isn't a factor of thread-count) so I don't think spending time on this is fruitful. |
