3D Client Preview

We have a 3d client test release!
Check it out for a speed test!

Before you download, read on.

This is NOT playable release! Its a speed and a system test.
We want see how fast it is on your system and what problems appear on your system and your graphic card.

What you will see?
You can move around with a fully animated demo player on clean but rendered ground. Its IS connected to a server you have to download but you will see no objects.

You can move around with the cursor keys. Only slow moving, no running atm.

You can zoom in or out by using '+' and '-' key and move the viewpoints using F1 to F4.

There are more keys with demo function (the 'i' key will for example give a demo inventory). Some will do something, some will crash the system, have fun to test it.

There is a fully working text window for the chat which needs be tested for speed to, but it should be pretty fast.

On my system, the demo shows 480+ fps. Which is pretty fast and will give us a fine playable client even when all objects are rendered.

You can download the demo here:
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=53415&package_id=...

Download the client3d_demo_04_2009.tgz AND the testserver3d.zip.

Start the server in the testserver3d.zip and then the 3d client in the other package.

You will see all server listed, but you can *only* connect to the localserver.

There is a pre-installed account. Type in:
Account name: demo
password: demotest

You will see a player named "Test" - hit Return and you will put "in the game".

In the left upper corner you will see the fps, please report that and your experience or problems here in the comments.

Happy testing.

I'm using a Win XP, HP Laptop Centrino Duo T2300 @ 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM, GeForce Go 7400 256MB. I got max 160 FPS with a average of 130 FPS. It looks pretty smooth.

mk here im using a intel core 2 duo 3 gig cpu 4 gig dual channel ram windows xp and a nvidia 8400GS graphics card. with that i was getting around 1500 FPS max and around 1000 on heavy loads.

i also tried my integrated graphics with it (intel G35 chipset) and with that i got around 400 max and 100 under heavy load, still very smooth. no graphical errors i noticed with either.

i think before u get all technal what about people who cant afford the graphic card maybe should pick bettween 3d client or 2d client on the same server. should make it all the difference the looks not server.

I was getting 1200fps on my AMD Athalon Dual 4400+ with a GeForce 8800.

Very impressive 3Dclient with smooth movement.

fps 105 to 125

Intel Core2 Duo E4600 @ 2.4Ghz
memory 3.00 GB
32 bit os vista

No Graphics card ....onboard Intel graphics

60 to 90 fps is what I get with Planeshift and Eternal Lands so with objects I think this will be comparable.

uhm, 2000?? Ok, i got my graphic card with the idea to have a "mid class" one so i know that whats fast on my is fast on most others, but thats some difference... I have a quadcore overclocked up to 3ghz with 4gb memory. So, it really must be the card.

Well, here goes...

Got an Intel Core 2 Duo here at 3 GHz, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 for the graphics. Currently running Windows 7 beta. Was consistently getting around 2000 fps, and was only when I was walking around a bit and getting those stretched tiles on the screen where it dipped a bit, down to a little under 1000 fps if I had a lot of them on the screen as well as a few widgets open. That was about the lowest I could get it. Having the inventory open dropped it to about 1650 fps. I could rotate the camera fine and zoom in and out. Only problem I had was I couldn't minimise the client, or even move the cursor outside of the client window, so it's impossible to interact with anything else with it open, though I think that will be a bit obvious.

Anyway, it seems to utilise both cores, which is nice. First core was at 100%, second was around 80% or so. Though I have to say I haven't heard my graphics card make such a racket, despite playing other games that should hammer the graphics card a lot more. It's probably due to the fps being so high so maybe it is pounding on the graphics card a bit. :P

I would now go and test it on the laptop since its system specs aren't so good, but its graphics card decided to give up the ghost, so that's out the window. :S

I suppose I could dig out my old Pentium III 500 MHz desktop with its awesome ATI Rage Fury card. Yeah.
