Unofficial Overgrowth a208 build

[EPR89]

Heres a suggestion: When the enemy is only unconscious, not dead, we can grab their body like normal, and if we grab their head, we can press LMB while holding RMB and snap their neck. Too brutal?

When I want to kill them I generally grab them by the head and then knee them. That strike usually lands on the back of the head and kills them.

There seems to be a lot more lag and framerate drops in this version. Is anyone else having the same issues?

You can knee them when you grab them? I haven't tried that. That's pretty sweet. Oh and another thing about the grabs. I would greatly appreciate if they made it to where you can actually walk forward with someone who is still alive. Like when you sneak behind them and grab them. So that you can take them hostage and use them as a shield.

yea, go play arena, and whenever the characters get back up from being knocked down, i get wicked fpg drop. once they're standing, it's back to normal.

[Peruraptor]

Yep, If seems to be when multiple people are ragdolling.

[gawhisper]

yup I've been having great performance with the game now, with 100+ fps, but for some reason when a character ragdolls and then gets up, the fps drops a lot, to 10 or less fps, it's happening when the "getting up" animation starts, is there anyway around this?

Still getting the

The game is looking for a folder "Data", but it is actually named "data". Filename are not case sensitive in windows, but they are on unix.
In my case, I could solve this particular issue by creating a symlink, but it seems there are more issues like this lurking everywhere in the game data files.

btw, not sure if this is related, but does anybody else experience *very* frequent segfaults when running the unofficial build? For me the game is hardly playable right now, I will try again when the next alpha is out.

I have the System76 Galago Ultra Pro. I noticed with the latest update that I get more performance problems, but on a smaller scale, like more stuttering, but not as strong or as prolonged.

Thanks, didn't notice that.

It runs now, but like you getting frequent segfaults.

Trying the linux build. I fixed the Data folder problem but all I get is a window and the lines

and there it hangs forever. I notice there is no x86_64 executable any more. Is that the problem?

Only just installed the update today, yeah I have the same thing over here.

When I first extracted the downloaded archive, the exec bit on AwesomiumProcess wasn't set.

Try this:

Code: Select all

chmod +x /home/bob/games/Wolfire/Overgrowth/lib/AwesomiumProcess

Better now?
