like sometimes the dj just makes the hook get super long, like i get a normal hammer height boost. Does that mean my timing was too early or late? etc (edited)
That means you didnt hammer bottom tee?

Why would I hammer bottom tee

hey. after reinstalling windows, i started getting some sort of delay in teeworlds and low fps for my computer. tried looking in the forum, didn't help. any ideas? edit: other games work perfect (cs:go - 350 fps on max) and etc edit2: also in entities fps is fine around 2000(delay is still present) while with textures it can go down to 200 on some maps(

Guess since you reinstalled it worked before? Then you can only try the classic stuff: update drivers update windows install missing drivers(gpu, mouse whatever) change settings to max performance in windows and/or drivers
11:16
and ofc try clean tw config
Avatar
I thought speedly worked like you would jump right before hammer, and hammer works for me perfectly so I thought thta was the way, isnt it?

Updated drivers/deleted config - problem remains

Updated drivers/deleted config - problem remains
used drivers from the website of the branch? amd.com nvidia.com ..
Avatar
then i can't help you, but if it worked before it's probably some setting or some other driver
Avatar
If you got any ideas which setting it might be - share, I’ll try playing around with it, much appreciated
Avatar
not really, but since it sounds like you are unhappy with your FPS(if they were better before) I'd start and search for prefer performance options Also i'd try to be sure its not just some mouse setting that feels weird, e.g. is triggering the hook really delayed or does the gameplay just feel weird then i'd search for mouse drivers then i'd look in my motherboard options unplug devices etc.
Avatar
Mouse movement is fine, the delay feels exactly like vsync, in nvidia control panel it’s disabled
13:15
Also something I’ve noticed, on integrated the FPS is better however still not perfect and delay is present
Avatar
integrated might aswell have less delay, bcs of how the laptop's screen is plugged to the device components, but yeah laptops are kinda weird xD
Avatar
Been playing like that for 2-3 month now
13:23
But it’s a pain
Avatar
well i can only hope for you that the nvidia card has a direct connection to the display and not some weird extra rendering performance that is channeled through the integrated card in the end
13:25
my brother's gf for example has a gamer laptop that just doesnt even allow the integrated gpu to work at all, probs bcs its completly disconnected
Avatar
Well, if it worked before, I can assume that the hardware is fine
Avatar
well you can press f1 at cleint start and see what gpu is used, if u sure nvidia was used before it might just be the nvidia or intel driver that is blocking (edited)
13:30
13:30
while using integrated intel thing
13:30
fps is around 800
13:30
13:30
13:31
switch to nvidia - boom 300-400
Avatar
yes i heard that alot
13:31
my only assumption is that the nvidia card is throttled in power consumption somehow
Avatar
my assumption is that tw before i wiped out the windows was on the integrated gpu anyways
13:32
but somehow it was doing better
Avatar
oh ok, yeah i really dunno if you can fix the nvidia gpu to run better, i also have a very old laptop where nvidia is worse for non 3d games either the intel gpu is just good in 2d rendering(e.g. the shaders aren't complex, so the card doesn't do complex calculations) and/or the nvidia card suffers too much from bad cooling + the PSU(the power it can draw from the system)
13:34
i also dunno how stripped the GPUs are, e.g. if they are missing fast VRAM or just have less shader units(used for the math on the GPU)
Avatar
also look at this
13:43
13:43
13:44
with entities fps even goes up to 2000
13:44
that's on integrated
13:44
delay gets better
13:44
but some still present
Avatar
yeah thats probably bcs intel gpus are not so strong, so as more time is spent on the GPU the worse it gets on intel vs the supirior nvidia cores but therefore intel is directly in the CPU(less delay, faster vertex scheduling, doesnt consum alot of power etc.)
13:50
I'd love to suggest to enable "modern OpenGL" in the graphic settings, but you will probably encounter intel driver bugs
13:51
but that might improve the performance a tiny bit also disable health hud, score hud
Avatar
no point to disabling hud
13:53
i think
Avatar
less pixels to render, more fps
13:54
simple as that
Avatar
true, but the thing is it was consistent before
Avatar
have u also installed intels latest driver?
Avatar
i think so
13:55
but im not sure atm
13:55
if everything is correct
13:55
u have todo it like in this guide
13:55
bcs many laptops dont want you to update
13:56
but yeah, i really just can say, search the internet to check for max performance settings, make sure your cooler isnt dusty, the laptop has direct energy, not from the battery
Avatar
Thx for the advices, I’ll keep on looking for a solution

Join a team and use the /practice function
14:27
(works on all maps)
Avatar
@! OG ई╬ R.S.KAR don't we document the process on the readme?
Avatar
Ah ok thanks
Avatar
Or make your own map
14:49
“Training map”
14:49
That’s how I practice anyways
Avatar
I thought about it but im busy and would rather spend my time playing
Avatar
It takes 5 min to make a training map) anyways /practice is good too
Avatar
also might want to bind /rescue for easier /practise 🙂
Avatar
Bind r say /r

What does it do?

Teleports you back to a platform once uhave fallen in frz

Ok will do

how do i do this? map yun gu 2

How do i test a custom skin?
Avatar
in tee settings there is a skin directory button
19:33
put it there, click the reload button in the tee settings
Avatar
Ok thanks
Avatar
My tee has a strange outline around his feet hat isnt there in the skin (tried reload already)
Avatar
send png xd
19:54
Its a modified glitch skin
19:57
Thats the colour depth not the version of the game

u need to use dilate.exe
19:59
in steam u can rightclick ddnet and go on manage-> browse local files
Avatar
It didnt work
20:00
Still the same
Avatar
drag and drop the image into it
20:01
then reload ofc
Avatar
Didnt work
20:03
Is it meant to do something other than open then close?
Avatar
yes modify ur png
Avatar
Well rip it didnt work
Avatar
mhhh
20:05
check when the image was last modified
Avatar
It did update the modified time
Avatar
did you also reload?
Avatar
else i dunno what outline u mean
Avatar
Around the feet
20:08
Theres a purple outline that isnt part of the sprite sheet
Avatar
i dunno i dont see it ingame
Avatar
the pink is there if you disable alpha channel, you need to dilate the skin
Avatar
well he said he did xd
Avatar
I dragged the image onto the exe to open the image with the exe. It did somthing then closed
Avatar
oh it is still there after dilate
20:12
need to manually remove it
Avatar
But nothing changed in game after reloading the skin
Avatar
wtf is ur dilate broken
20:12
it works with mine
20:12
20:13
wait i gonna check that 😄
Avatar
for me dilate just extended the pink
Avatar
yeah that sounds wrong
Avatar
Idk how to manually remove it in krita
Avatar
ah yeah but looks right
20:19
the original has a alpha of 5 purple glow around it
20:19
20:19
i just have a dilate version that ignores it, bcs of reasons xd
20:22
but ignoring these low alphas caused trouble with some mapres, so i had to revert that
20:22
but yeah u gonna alter the image then
Avatar
I cleaned it up for you @Sk3tch12E
20:24
Woo no problems now.

How do I upload a skin?
