Re: Sidra - New Game In Development mack (0 replies, 10 views) (2004-Apr-4) Spodi, the engine is only in alpha stages. Yes, I'd agree it will need a lot of optimizations. Try typing /putplayer in the console at the bottom of the screen. Also, you can hide/show the console by pushing the ` button next to the 1 key.
The game takes advantage of your video card. Right now it has to load a .BMP tileset into memory, there is the back buffer, primary surface, and it has to create a surface for heads and bodies.
I *think* in 0.7.7 you can push F1 to change your screen resolution. Try that, it should bring up your fps. If it doesn't work, then we might of removed that option (sorry hehe).
Version 0.9.7 is out now, but our website (as of right now) is down, my friend hasn't told me why so I'm guessing they are rebooting or updating the server.
You can download 0.9.7 from www.apg88.com/sidra if you'd like. |
