Spring RTS Engine

ouch maybe i chose the wrong word, i mean line of sight actually.
Pressing L, but I dont want to lower graphic setting, missing shadows.

Is it possible to make the unexplored areas dimmer?

i knew this,but still cant rotate.

for example when I am using Rotatable overhead camera, I turned to a very bad angle and want to change it back to default view, can't I just pressing 1 button, without adjusting the angles.

In my point of view, except OTA, the other camera mode is no playable. They scroll too slow,in max speed. Although the can rotate, it rotate too fast. Can't set back to default camera view after changing angles.. Hard to control. Actually the Rotatable overhead camera is not bad, but need to scroll ...

what is ota means?
overhead camera?

spring should have a better camera mode, maybe just copy the c&c3 or other 3D rts game's camera view?

when I play a game, I get 400 ping usually, but my ping will suddenly rise randomly to 900-1000ms, so stange!

Somewhere in the nVidia settings, or you can open up task manager and right click to do it. It helps because the nVidia drivers do something horribly wrong in an attempt to boost the speed a tad and end up slowing things down tremendously. nvidia multi-core optimizations != setting affinity so wher...

How to set "process affinity to just one of your cores"? and why does it help?

I don't have this problem using the original spring.exe, but only when I use the spring_76b1_pre76b2_EXPERIMENTAL_bugfix_a2cb4258, that bug fixed the flash bug in the previous post, I got the -40 ping problem.

If it is fixed, how can i download the fix and apply it to my spring?

I see myself is 0 ping in other people's games, i ask the other players, they said i got -40 ping.. but i feel the game is so laggy..so strange

in that experimental release the unitsync.dll make my spring client crash.

How to save a camera angle to a key?

I just discovered that flash happens only in other people's server, when I am hosting myself, I don't see any flash.

Is that true it releases tommorrow and fix this annoying bug?

Yes you are right, when I diabled antialiasing, black lines gone.
