post here your experiences with 102.0 engine.

since when is 102.0 default for autohosts?

i for myself have the impression that it lags hard. even on small maps. it is close to be unplayable.

examples
Multiplayer B423109 10 on FolsomDamDeluxeV4
Multiplayer B423107 11 on Into Battle_v3

maybe devs could set up a performance measurement like they already did some time ago with that googledrive excel table?

post here your own experiences.

also, using a new engine version as default on autohosts, isnt that something worth a news? (sorry if i have missed that if it was announced)

trees are performace killers for me. i was experiencing lags on Quicksilver, but now some lagging occur even on Altair Crossing. usually the workaround for me is to micro units with high camera pan on which trees are not rendered.

I still don't know how to disable those animated trees

The funniest part is that the tree eligibility tester in the tree vertex shader detects streetlights on Intersection as valid trees.

Looks quite uncannily terrifying.

The engine passed the performance test for me and there were no widespread complaints so more rigorous testing was not required. We were using an engine very similar to 102 for a few weeks previously. DErankAdminmojjj can you run the profiler?

I had problems with every 10X.0 engine. Takes centuries to load, lags after 10-15 min on bigger maps, even with lowest settings...

I blame your CPU

Spring 98 was slower than spring 91. Spring 10X has been consistently slower than spring 98 was. Except for animated trees it's really nothing new.

Contrary to everyone else Spring 102 runs a bit smoother than 100 used to and 98 ran much worse than 91 and 100. 100 definetely ran better than 91 to me as well.

Spring 100/101 was fine. Please switch back autohosts.

It would be good to gather actual data first before jumping to conclusions don't you think?
Someone like AUrankAdminGoogleFrog should make a benchmark sheet assess which one performs better.

Been back for a day. Observations:
Config

- FPS has tanked to ~60fps at gamestart / pregame in tree heavy maps. Usual: 220-300.
- Mid game fps: 22-30 (3v3) - Usual: 60-70 fps
- End game fps: 17-22 (3v3) - Usual: 55-65 fps

Conclusion:
Tree rendering test map required?

i have had the same results that Shaman has had on two different computers, one a 4th gen i7 with nvidia 765 the other a 1st gen i7 with radeon 5870

Fixed in https://github.com/spring/spring/commit/f57b19a61e46cfa61f9a3bfef1452c9805b04111

Thanks for the reports!
