Ok guys, I know I haven't even finished the Mega-weekend but my Exams are upon me

For the next two weeks there will be no updates but then after that, summer holidays

I'd probably hit 2 matches a day during summer.

So yeah, sorry about not posting anything, exams suck

Best of luck in the exams. I think they're a little more important than XFF..

Come on, face the facts like a man: Cry like a little girl!

No, that's just a sad little girl - this is crying

So, we have ourselves a new patch. The question is: Will it have any effects on Fleet Fest?
Anyway: We got noticed in the 40th issue of the X-News

Yeah that was awesome! I had no idea this competition was that big.

And no, 2.6 didn't affect anything and neither will 2.7

Except perhaps the perfomance. But what about M8 behavior?
BTW: During my testing I had problems to find out which turret number represents the individual turret on individual ships. Would it be possible to get the script telling me which number belongs to which turret?

2.7 COULD impact positively on frame rate - Certainly has for me.

And shouldn't you be revising TJ?

Technojerk36 · Post by **Technojerk36** » Fri, 4. Jun 10, 07:03

Well yeah, performance could be impacted.

As for revising, I am. I can go back and fourth between the forums and studying. I tried that once with a full fledged game and the unthinkable happened - I died on easy

Tested the performance with a spam fleet on my now low-end system. The only difference I notice is that after a certain amount of enemies are dead the performance goes very rapidly upwards. Though at the start it's as crappy as before. Maybe faster systems benefit more from the patch.

Systems with more than 2 gig of memory should be the beneficiaries of the new patch - I have a poor system but with 4 gig of memory and the performance increase is 'stunning'.

Same 4GB of ram. But I'm on 32 bit. So not much of a difference.

Gavrushka · Post by **Gavrushka** » Sat, 5. Jun 10, 13:32

I am a 64 bit system - BUT 32 bits address 4 gig too yes? Should run the same on 32/64 bit systems with 4 gig I had thought.

So it can... scratches head.

Now where did I get that idea from?
