Version 1.150 - 1.151 - 1.152 - 1.153 released

[Maxim Suvorov]

This is something I spend a lot of time looking into. Usually I'd say it's the OS memory manager's job to decide what gets paged and what doesn't, not the application's (I don't even know if there's an API for that)... but it seems to have a hard time doing that with Warband. My guess is that the game keeps accessing memory when it shouldn't, maybe because of a bad choice of data structures or programming practices. Add to that the fact that the memory manager in Windows XP is garbage and you have a good recipe for failure.

The only good coice - is to allocate mem at once at start up and to use only that allocated space. Such thing is used in Medieval2: Total War with it's huge battles and in some other mem extensive games.

Probably not really the right place to post this, but I just found out that the framerate cap affects the loading time of the game.

Will do.  Glad that this thing's getting beaten on pretty thoroughly, I think players are going to be very pleased

What if this grows into a storm of neverending exchange of memes turning the only serious normal interesting part of the forums into 4chan while spamming my inbox?.

 

[Lumos]

I feel obliged to post something too.

Too lazy to do it properly, I'm afraid...

That's it, the small bits and peaces are left out to keep it a short list.

It got pushed through steam already.
I am waiting on TW to upload the non-steam stuff.
