to point the effect out, well my game was laggin really bad with like 50 npcs on a forest area.
NOW i can play with up to 300/400 npcs depending on the landscape with no lag at all.

I can use polished landscapes now i dont know who think buffersize for the renders should me 16 by default but he should stop sniffing glue for sure...
Ive no clue what other settings may helped

It will lag with 50 npcs in a forest area, I have the same graphics card as you.
no it dont lag with 200 :grin: even not with polished landscape modification

Thank you it worked for me, it was a big improvement. I have been forced to use Direct X7 before but now i could enjoy the game with Direct X9. However, it still lags as hell if you are in a place overcrowded with fighting soldiers :sad:

good to hear that :smile: - maybe you turn off corpses and rag dolls thats a big performance killer tbh
 
well the only significant change ou cannot make in the games menue was


render_buffer_size = 500 from 16 - i changed it to 100, i recognized significant performance boost and increased it to 500
 
I just recovered my long-lost password to my account here, just to say: thank you Kazhul Doran. I was about to shelve this game because of the lag, but your solution fixed it! Seriously, the guy that set buffersize at 16 by default should get fired. Devs should apply this simple solution in the next patch for all players that dont read this forum.

And by the way, the manual says, that if you have multi-core CPU, ragdolls will not slow down you game, because second CPU will take care of them.

8800GT
4GB RAM
Q6600 @ 3,2Ghz

Well this made my game horrible, I stupidly did not make an original so can anyone post the original file?
Delete the file and start the game, it will make you a new one. You'll need to redo your settings though.
 
just redo the changes you made ? ^^
or atleast the buffer render size to 16

the rest can be changed through game menue options

lolz I didnt notice ANY change at all.

So you game is still laggy as hell?
Mine was, and after the change I play smoothly with everything maxed out. Before that the game started to lag just seconds after armies started to exchange blows. It was unplayable, like slide-show.
