I have a dual monitor setup so I can watch the changes in game as they happen on task manager, the most significant things that happen is, the first time you open the research panel, it goes up from 460 to 580k memory usage, but I don't think thats it, whatever is happening I can determine happens early in the game, the only thing that significantly slowed down the game for me so far is researching basic equipment, it snail paced turns, and from that point the game became extremely slow, so w

The scaling in the mods is a little messed up, if I scale things it does not properly convert to the proper size for say a tactical battle, If I want a castle wall all I can get is a dinky castle wall, If I want it to be bigger I cannot do that it only scales up to max, you cannot scale it to completely fit the size of the tile, in the tile editor before you use it in the map editor.

Ya I would like to also have the option to tac battle them all, If I auto attack a bandit party with a def rating of 55 and combat rating of 66, with my party which has a def rating of 656, and an attack rating of 702, I lose which makes so much sense, then if I attack them I use Infernal on their party and they die. I dont see how they can win when I have more then a 10x advantage on them.

Ok well, I tried running a custom map with no mountains, and well, no that still OOM, however I think I might have found something, I researched only civilization this time for a long time since I put no monsters on the map at all assuming I would not have millions of barbarian hordes attacking my mines and crap like heroes of might and magic, alas I was wrong, so getting to the point I began to research the war tree, and the second I selected the basic equipment my game began to la

I was screwing around with the map editor, and it seems the more mountains I placed the worst the lag got. OOM... I think there might be something there, it was only the mountain that would lag it I tried everything else. My next test is to make a map with no mountains at all and see the result, I will keep you informed

I wanted to see how the game would handle a custom map, I made this using the mod 4 editor, you can just throw it in your map directory, http://www.4shared.com/document/kM2scALB/Beta4.html http://www.4shared.com/photo/QloQ7p75/Beta4Thumb.html Thats a link to the Beta4.xml map file and the maps thumb <

Nah it seems to be spam memory increaseing in the map editor as well, I'm going to stay on it and see if I can get it to crash. I'll keep you posted.

My memory usage goes up 100k the first time the research window loads, My memory, every 2 - 3 turns after go up 30k, if I don't pass a turn I can build an do other things and push it up by 100k then when I pass a turn it stays at whatever level, the most noticeable difference for me though is after the research window loads, it goes up 100k and then about 10 - 30 k after that every turn, its usually 10k a turn 30k when I complete something, however the ram fluctuates, even if I

I can tell you right now when it goes up in that save game, usually on the trasitional screens between tactical combat, and the map, as well as each turn, if I stay Idle and do nothing It does not budge, but during transitional phases it jumps 30k for me memory. Here I'll start a fresh game right now and then tell you when it happens in that one and post it.

Ya the games memory usage ramps up like huge, but for no real reason, you can have a game with 12 city's crash you out. but reload the same game, and play for an hour before it crashes you out again. and watching the memory usage it starts at a reasonable amount and gets more and more bloated, I'll post my save game after work.

Want me to post my saved game, I'm pretty far in, got almost all tech researched, have bunches of city's the game itself plays ok, my memory usage starts out fine but it seems like every 5 turns or so it goes up about 30k until it reaches well over 1000k memory usage, but its the same save game, starts out good and fast but gets slow really fast, then I reset, reload I'm good for 10 mins then laggy again, I have a AMD Phenom II Quad and a 9600 Nividia on this machine, also using

After I crashed out of memory, I left open task manager to watch the memory usage when I first opened the map that gave me the out of memory error, because I have autosave at 1 turns, memory was at around 500k, after about 30 mins it slowly continued to rise until 1200k I quit after that, but I'm just saying, I take it Road Geometry is still ramping it up.

Monday is a Holiday where I live so this weekend will be pretty sweet,

How exactly do Mod's and workshop additions work? I know we can make things, how are they shared with the community, will there be a bank of downloadable material we can browse in game? you also stated about adding it to the a canon status or something how will they be reviewed? Also will we be able to make custom tactical maps, like inside structures, as well as outside, just curious. Also is there a way of exporting/importing art assets, if so what format are they in, and are they a

[quote who="Omnax" reply="7" id="2693520"]I do not want to be rude or anything, but have you considered make smaller squares in tactical combat? I mean, at the moment, if you attack somebody, that unit runs arround in that square, which is a little bit stupid for me.... also, how you will add something like a sweep attack etc... which attack more units arround? Would not be better to have smaller squares, where bigger units take more squares, like 4 for dragon and one for normal army et

Actually I was reading a financial report about why a lot of gaming had moved to console, and apparently it is because they can reach a much larger audience. Where as some of us understand the inner workings of a computer, how to build and maintain the system, and understand the system requirements of software, a large amount of people do not, so much in fact that a lot are wary of playing computer games and would much rather have an XBOX which enables them to plug and play rather t

Id love to see you make an X-com, or Syndicate :P Course I am waiting on this for X-com fanboys http://www.ufo2extraterrestrials.com/faq-press/

My quad runs the game fine, well except when the AI goes all crazy and does whatever he does to make the game lag like heck, and half the world is his city. whatever hes doing I don't know.

I don't think World of Warcraft should fall under that list, since blizzard has it as part of its portfolio.

I just want the Mexican box,. just for show on my Chinese computer desk, and I'm from Windsor Canada, right across the border from you guys so where do you get the CD's from? Id rather buy online, can't remember when the last time I walked into a computer shop was, and I hate console games since the ps2 generation I haven't purchased any so. its all Digital for me.
