    • Game Performance

      I won't bring you review of changed skills and bonuses (my level isn't big enough to try it seriously, just lv 60).
      But I and my friends have problems with game performance. In demon tower, when player is fighting lot of enemies, the game is very slow (lags). Sometimes textures are disappearing (I can't see the walls and floor - they are black as background, I can only see other players and mobs). I think this is not about HW, my is: intel core i5 7300hq, ddr4 RAM 8gb, GTX 1050m 2Gb and I have the same issues (lags and missing textures). This happens to me in Demon Tower, and Spider Dungeon. I suppose that problem is in game engine. I saw recommended HW requirements: Win 7, Win 8; Pentium 4 1.8 GHz; RAM 1 GB; Hard drive 3 GB, Graphics card with more than 64 MB RAM, Support DirectX 9.0, Windows compatible mouse.
      If the game engine is made for work with only 64MB graphics RAM, this causes missing textures. It should be improved and teach game engine to be working with at least 256MB, like I haven't seen a computer with less then 512Mb Video Ram a couple of years (today low end PCs are being sold with 1 Gb).
      And lags in demon tower, caused by more then hundred monsters, are caused by RAM and CPU engine limitations (and/or graphics ram). If the game is optimized for 1 Gb RAM, all the information can't be rightly stored and used (like game options, hundreds of monsters, and a lot of other necessary things ( server connections etc.)). This means that you are "kicked from the game" or the game is very slow. Also memory usage should be improved to support at least 2 Gb RAM (Today every low end pc has 4Gb ram).
      I think the mentioned specs shouldn't destroy any PC (If you buy very low end pc (+- 300€), you will have mostly twice as good pc as I mentioned you will need). And mostly PC's that you own are much more better.

      And something to beta 17.4
      I am really pleased to hear that you are balancing skills. Some skills really needs to be improved (attack up (+- 50 only physical dmg on P is "nothing"), spark, leather walk (because max speed restriction), some "throwable" spells that can be easily missed because enemy can quickly move - shooting dragon, lightning throw, dark orb and ninja archer spells, and so on ... I also find out that lycan spells are too much strong against me (I don't know I have never played lycan soo much (just lv 40) but when I go pvp against lycan he usually wipes me out by one or two spells that I think is not so much "tactical". Maybe I wasn't lucky and he had defenses and strong against me bonuses. I am looking forward next betas and I like interview (PvP and PvE balances and better anti-cheat future...). Some new free time activities like is fishing or mine would be fine. Also the cooldown of 6th spells, (warrior, ninja) that takes 60s to recharge, the spells are unusable for PvE.

      PS I have account on czech metin2 forum and I don't want to create a new one just for this message on international forum.

    • A computer having integrated graphics (like the ones from the Intel Core I3, I5, I7) uses shared graphics memory...that is, taking part of the RAM and uses it as graphics memory. The amount of graphics memory is set in BIOS and is usualy 32 MB or on newer models 64 MB. Game engine is made to match alot of hardware configurations, not everyone has a PC/laptop with dedicated graphics card.

    • I think that the game engine needs a improvement. For example in dungeon like Red Dragon Fortress, Spider Dungeon, Meley Lair or Demon Tower, where there are too many monsters, the game sometimes lags and in the case of maps lv100+ it kicks you out of the dungeon.
      This is a problem that it needs to be resolved because in my server, there are too many people who have equipment, lvl and other things but they can´t go to Meley or Red Dragon Fortress because of this.
      In addition many people have computers like GaarasamaGreekServer here and still suffer fps losses in certain areas of maps 100 or in Meley.
      In my case with the Tower of Demons, I have seen that a good solution is to remove the shadows in the the game, this makes it run much better and this way at least in my case does not generate low fps in this map . Now on the other maps, even with this, very often happens the low fps (Inside Red Dragon Fortress or Meley Lair or Nemere).
      My computer in my case is an AMD FX-6300 and has a Radeon R7 250 video card, the good thing is that with this in the tower of demons I do not suffer low fps but as it is an AMD has the bug of the frozen screen that already more of one must know, in which one has no other choice than to close the client and open a new one to make it work again.

    • The game can't use dedicated graphics card

      Hello,

      Many PPL have this problem when playing the game ( i know that metin2 is an old game and this changes aren't easy), i am just asking if its possible to solve this problem beacause with onboard graphics its a struggle to have 2 account conected, i already tried everything possible to solve this with no sucess.

    • You can check the linked image and you'll notice the usage of the graphics card in the Monitor and in the upper right corner of the game window. (the 3 red values are from graphics card, the blue ones are CPU load and FPS count). It is clearly the GeForce card used not the embedded one. If you don't know how to configure it or your PC, please ask a computer specialist for that
