FPS and meph tileset
« on: January 08, 2017, 07:24:12 am »

I've enabled LAA with meph tileset, but the FPS is pretty bad. I got an FPS death (2 fps) early on just because of a surface fire. Will I get better fps if I use a smaller tileset? My computer is high-end, so I'm not talking about my computer's performance, but rather the performance of the game itself.

Use the settings in the thread I just posted for it to work properly.

Short answer: Yes for lower end computer.

Long answer: A smaller tileset bring better FPS, but it is unlikely that it was your issue. Some worlds have really busy caverns that destroys FPS and recently DF have started getting slow when bad stars get aligned. Try generating a new world and see if you still have the problem.
