Asheron's Call runs 100% fine, with every plugin etc ... UNTIL I decide to open MuleTradeIt! ... then it just starts to FPS lag like crazy, the "Start" menu is fine, but if I go to set prices/points/messages etc, thats when the FPS lag starts ...


Any Ideas?

before you go to start up muletrade it, turn off all the other plugins.

once mule is in place to sell stuff & before you turn on muletrade it change view to keypad 5 overhead view.

you can set prices ect BEFORE starting muletrade it

I've noticed this as well - as in I can perfectly replicate opening the Alinco3 window to edit it in game, all tabs reduce the framerate considerably except the Alert tab. I've noticed this in other plugins as well but will try to make a more complete list tonight.

Decal Views are not very efficient. You should use VVS plugins where possible (and convince the authors of the other plugins you use to support it).

yes lino, very commendable concept. but as muletradeit hasn't been touched in 2 or 3 years, doubtful it will get converted to VVS.

some of the things mentioned above will help, and we can always HOPE that the updated release of Decal (when it is available) will offer some help for the older non-updated/able plugins.

Actually Gouru is working on it. Slowly, but there's been progress.

I wouldn't hold up that much hopes for the old view system ever working much better. It's possible, but no one wants anything to do with that code.

So a little update ...


After having tested Alinco + Go Arrow and MuleTradeIt!.....

The only time the FPS issues seem to present itself is if I open any decal plugin and the dark brown texture is present, like the screenshot below:

http://img195.imageshack.us/i/fpslag.jpg




Prior to me formatting my laptop, I was able to run all these plugins 100% fine, I format and then the FPS issue starts. (Which is why I believe its not shotty oldschool decal plugin programming)

Can post my export again if need be but can be found at start of the post.
