[BUG?] Game goes 1fps when the fortress is collapsing

February 25, 2009 1:21:13 AM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

I noticed it basically everytime i play (both vs players and vs cpu) that when there is the animation of the fortress collapsing everything goes at 1fps.

Game is played in high quality but with AA disabled. The game, elsewhere, runs supersmooth. This issue applies only to Beta3, in Beta2 was all 100% fine.

on Vista64, Q6600, 6gb ram, 8800GT

 

log (was a 1vs2... cpu oppenents):

I noticed the same - the game gets reeeeealy choppy at the end-sequence with the collapsing fortress, but the game normally runs perfectly smooth.

Confirmed from here. It lags while the fortress is collapsing and the screen starts to pan around but a few seconds later all is OK again.

Confirmed here too. It's not a big deal since the game is over but it's still a kind of bug.

Yeah. If you somehowmanaged to destroy the enemy base, you just want to lean back, enjoy the deservable feeling of beeing victories and watch the game at 1 fps... No wait, somethings wrong in this sentence, just what could it be?

 

Or, to put it simple:

Also confirmed

Same for me with :

AMD 64*2 6400+

Nvidia 9600GT

4GB RAM

Win XP SP3

 

I think it's not a config problem but a latence bug due to calculatieng achievement and other things...

Same here. The audio goes all choppy too - but I'm having that problem when it gets crowded during the normal game anyway.

I got a nice Phenom 9850BE with an HD4870 vid card, and 8gb memory, and it lags insanely bad. So, it's now a known issue.

When it dies, why not make it more of a cutscene? Have it take a snap shot, where the game freezes, then spins? It'll look sloppier, but if it's all CG, it wouldn't look bad.

Any endgame sequence seems to cause a massive performance hit, though it isn't as bad as it was before the last patch.

I do like that play continues for a few moments, since it allows for a few last-second kills and whatnot...

I doubt its an actuall graphical issue, Imo it seems more like the achievement system uses up ALL your cpu power trying to calculate what achievements you should gain and which not. In games where you only menage to get one achievement if any, the citadel crumble doesn't lag more then the game in general.

That was in a 0v4 game I played which was over really fast. Perhaps the devs should check if the code for assigning achievements somehow gets stuck in loops or something else that causes it to lag the game totally.
