Merge Warp
« on: March 31, 2004, 02:52:28 PM »
I LOVE the new AH.

BUT!!!

There is a real show stopper, and that is the lag on merge issue. When it loads textures/geometry for the nme plane. Completely destroys the immersion and gameplay.

I noticed we get the message "xxxxxx.res recieved" (I think it was .res) at these warps. Can all these be pre-loaded at initialization? Or at least loaded when an nme enters icon range, so it's not as big an issue?

Thanks!!!

Those are the skin files and they start downloading as soon as you connect to the arena.

Not for me they don't. They only load when I get to D3 or so from another plane, "then" they load.
