Melencholy Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Not really much to say but yayyyy. Not sure my exact improvement since I never really looked at my fps, but it does seem much better.

Mirror Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I take back my "Woah" for now. I am now able to teleport into Burthrope and use the bank chest (finally) but I still get whitescreened and kicked out randomly. I'm running around between 8-12fps instead of 1-5fps as I used to. So there has been a fix at least, but for me, the war still wages on. :( That really sounds quite bad; have you tried speeding your computer up in any way? I cleared a few GB of space on my laptop and it ran it a bit faster, prior to this update :LAlso, turn off textures, they destroy fpsI play on safemode/lowest settings for everything. So that shouldn't be the issue. I'll clean up my laptop a bit but I used to play just fine before the bot nuke, so I would think it was in correlation with the fps issue. Like I said, I definitely have seen some improvement which I am happy about, I just wish it would stop randomly white out on me and the other issues I've ran into. Hopefully with more engine improvements, my fps rate should continue to go up. A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.

Platinum_Myr Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Software mode is usually much better than safe mode by the way. Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thus Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Anyone know how to get AA to work? I just figured my graphics card (Nvidia GeForce GT 555m) couldn't do it, or that Runescape just hated me, because there were black lines and the text was unreadable. But now even with this update AA doesn't work. What do? I was having these issues with a couple of different computers. Both times it was the graphics settings on my own computer and had nothing to do with the graphics settings of Runescape itself. Most likely, you're running the "wrong monitor" type. Check your "screen resolution" settings from your Desktop and see what "display" is offered for monitor type. :unsure: Everything's recommended and even when changing resolution it still looked weird (but a few of the lines were gone) What is your resolution?

Applejuiceaj Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Was getting somewhere in between 5 and 10 before, now in Runespan I'm getting 15-20. I'm sure it will be higher once I leave Runespan though as my fps were generally low while there before. (Edit to add - If I turn textures off I instantly get 27-30, but I like keeping them on since it makes the game look better and I can still play just fine with lower FPS (as long as its not slideshow like) so I don't mind) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Meh. Was all excited hoping that I'd be back to ~40 fps but it's still not back to what it was. I'm hoping this isn't the end of the engine improvements. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

If you meant software, you should still try out OpenGL and directX, it's definitely possible that they run better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@Dan3HitU Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Meh. Was all excited hoping that I'd be back to ~40 fps but it's still not back to what it was. I'm hoping this isn't the end of the engine improvements.I was hoping also, I'm now getting like 20-ish when I'm standing still... as soon as I move or run into other places it goes straight down to around single-figures again. Edit: I don't know if this is related to this update, but ever since it launched I don't receive any "pings" on the world-select screen now. They're all "N/A".

Neos_Matrix Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Its been nearly 12 hours since my Runescape crashed. I don't know if this 'update' was to blame. Was just playing then all of a sudden, disconnection and I had to restart my Runescape client. Then during loading, Java crashes. Updating Java didn't change anything either. I hope this update changes my fps, I have faith in Jagex :smile: Barrows Items: 1x Dharok's Platelegs, 1x Veracs's Plateskirt, 1x Dharok's Greataxe, 2x Torag's Platelegs, 1x Akrisae's War Mace, 1x Ahrim's Robeskirt, 3x Akrisae's Robetop, 1x Guthan's Warspear, 1x Akrisae's Robeskirt, 1x Torag's Helm, 2x Verac's Brassard, 1x Karil's Pistol Crossbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. V. Devnull Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I like this update as well, albeit I wish better had happened. But I won't go ranting off the deep end over a minor 1 or 2 FPS, versus what I did gain... First time since Dominion Tower's release that my FPS hasn't been rock-bottom dead. Wasn't the Bot Nuke that killed me, but instead the Dominion Tower, even though I'm only an F2P'er. Weird, eh? :huh: ~D. V. "Finally getting some reasonable performance..."

Earthman Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I think now the problem is with your calculators... :P But seriously, any normal computer should now at least run 30 fps on minimum detail. Also make sure you're not on safe mode/software, since that seems to reduce your fps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem has been fixed for the majority of people, but that doesn't mean that everyone who's still suffering from it has a bad computer. It's still absolutely possible for the same problem to exist on a smaller scale. It would actually be rather surprising if they managed to root that out for all computers at the same time.

lordkafei Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 FWIW, I was getting 9 fps before the update and am getting 20 now (that is with OpenGL, everything turned on or maxed, as full a screen as F2P can have). Didn¹t try DirectX yet; will do that later if I have time. Pivoting the view with the arrow keys is smooth and speedy.

Platinum_Myr Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Arceus, safe mode is only used if you enable it via holding S as the applet starts. It should never be used unless software mode doesn't work.

Yes, epic proportions eveytime I load up a new area memory usage just "runs wild" rs then disconnects, blacks out and all I can do is restart the utility.FPS is good though, used to get 5-6 fps in dg lobby, now its like 25-26 :) just the way it was before bot nuke.
