The text rendering is still a bit weird (but will get used to it), the rest is pure awesome.

[imbaczek]

even the crashes? =)

Well this is kinda interesting:

When multithreaded pathfinding calculations were integrated in SVN I could do it with all 4 threads. In the "release candidates" this shrinked down to 2 and now with the final release I only get one thread for pathing. Did I miss something and this was removed / put on hold or is there something wrong?

I own a Phenom Quad Core CPU...

Just put on hold, it was causing desyncs.

Finally!

First thing i noticed in this new release was that my GPU went to 91 celcius degrees when using this new water renderer o_O

GeForce 8800GTS 320MB

Then fix your GPU temperature, having a GPU you can even get that hot under pressure can't be good (well it SHOULD survive it, but...).

[Peet]

Well the G92s are reputed to have heat issues...how is your stability at those temperatures? My G80 gts was stable at 110C when its fan failed.

random bug, one player think it might be related to him trying to give away all his stuff.

For bugs we have a bug tracker.

Please don't post bugs in this thread, it makes it a lot harder to track them.

[ZellSF]

Yeah, but I have no idea how to figure if its already been posted to the bug tracker or what to put as a description :/

Edit: seems like its fixed in svn.

[Tobi]

Even then we have help & bugs forum

i havent really got that high GPU temp, like ever. something wrong in the spring code perhaps?

Edit: why doesnt quote work here?

Edit2: OR BB code? >___>

[ZellSF]

It isn't something wrong in Spring's code, it stresses the video card, like lots of games do, this should not overheat your video card, if it does there's a problem you need to fix. Asking game developers to be nice to your misconfigured hardware setup won't work in the long run.

Of course as said that high temperatures might be acceptable, and hell, even normal for your video card so you might not want to put that much thought into it.

[TradeMark]

well, i think my GPU should handle 100 degrees... if the 8800GT runs normally around the 100 degrees in stress.

[Jazcash]

I'm starting to think Spring has more errors than Windows...

[TradeMark]

i said this once in the #main:
"<TradeMark> Was spring made by windows programmers?"
;D

Because this isn't actually a bug, I posted it here...

0.77b1 changelog
- Made units transfer their speed to their wrecks.

anyone noticed that this fails for com wrecks ?
now in "combomb" situation wrecks fly in odd places where you cant find them anymore...
In worst case the wreck flies to the opponents arms!

[TradeMark]

yeah i noticed that too, and its annoying
