Very slow resource loading

platyna · 04-08-2009, 12:27 PM

Is the update server so overloaded? The game is downloading resources from the web with amazing speed 57 bytes/s. Ping is ok, and my Internet connection is also ok.

Regards.

Consider yourself lucky. I've been cruising along at 24 bytes/s and I've had it running for over 12 hours now.

Yes, I know about not loading all of the resources at login, but the game is unplayable without all of the resources loaded (missing objects, terrain, textures, etc.) so I'll wait.

Check your log files I found that in my case it wasn't really downloading, the regnum error log file showed a ton of "Unable to download Resource #######"

This, sadly, is normal. It's very slow as ten million trillion people are trying to download the resources at the same time, so with all the strain, it does go verrrry slow.

Also expect the game to be abit laggy for the next day or two, while people download the patch.

P.S. Mine did at 26 bytes/s.

Yep, Ive beer swerving around 8 bytes to 24 bytes.

This is where NGD could implement torrent technology so that users can seed their resources and create a huge swarm (instead of bombing the same 3 servers over and over for 72 hours!)

Maybe the game client could use a web port to run a light bittorrent client that is built in, and only enable it during updates?
