I died on the runway because one wheel fell off when i was getting to the main part because the approach is TINY. Banner was ma driver in the tank.

Some idiot who wanted to know why he was kicked ...
"was i kicked for taking the aircraft?"
No, because you dont know how to taxi ...
"But i was near the take off !" (runway ...)
BUT YOU CANT TAXI ! IF YOU CANT DO THAT, I DOUBT YOU CAN FLY !
Trees ... 2x 8800GTS in SLi all maxed, 25 FPS >_<
Cain had his system on LOW and he got 5 fps ...
Plus, no offence to Rhino, but the map seems to "fake"

EDIT: Plus i parked my challenger on a hill, and it was bouncing around like f**k, got out to see why, and i died, leaving poor Jake on his own >_<

Dude you must suck lol :P get on a local, challenger can take 3 slams and you can empty all rounds from your apc and itll just start smoking :P
Quinling is epic and brilliant, just requires everyone to work together which no one wants to do.
And banner I'm afraid you will still die from someone who is firing 650rpm of 7.62 bullets in your general direction, even when youre 50 metres away :P
Guys who are complaining about lag, how much RAM do you have?
I hate to say it but i had no lag. Admittedly all i was doing was fucking admin duties which pissed me off but no lag whatsoever.
2 Gig PC6400 800mhz Corsair ram
Leadtek 8600GTS 256meg g-card
Plus a few other special bits
No 'lag' (fps drop) when I play, and I have a very average graphics card but 2gb RAM and Core 2 Duo
I love all the maps, i CAN fly and taxi, the CR2 is the nuts, its just lagg thats getting me down i hate this F***ing PC.

mines fine and my comp went "out of date" 2 YEARS AGO and it runs it fine
Guys, if you're experiencing heavy lag on Qinling try lowering your SOUND settings.
I know that sounds counter-intuitive, but trust me - things like the rapids and waterfall (plus the new ranged noise reduction) eat up memory and processor power, particularly if you've got an X-Fi audio card. The way X-Fi renders the new sounds can cause a little bit of lag, so if you lower your settings from Ultra to the next level down, you should find lag vanishes, or is at least reduced.
Certainly if you've got sound settings very high, drop them a notch.
Gotta say though, I've had no lag - but then a month's salary went into this rig last year, my penance for being such a geek lol.
I've only played the map for about 45-60 minutes. I loved it. It's wide, it's open, it's rolling hills (something there aren't enough of in PR - fed up of insta-mountains), it's got amazing viewdistances, the trees are gorgeous and plentiful yet spaced well enough that you can drive off-road.
If you use a RP correctly with a good squad and a car, you can stick together well and move quickly. I had a good deal going on with Hesky yesterday before I had to head off (gf wanted attention lol).
The only time i've ever had lag in any PR maps is due to sound, but it lasts a couple of seconds. ie when a jet goes over, a helicopter or the bloody annoying horn blooting that some dicks in vehicles do constantly to let the enemy know where we are.
But, and this is a big but, i use on board sound, it urinates all over the audigy card and is a damn site better than any sound card i've ever used.
However i've got everything, and i mean everything banged up to the nines so i expect a big of lag especially at the begining of maps.
Shall give your suggestion a go Masq, it's annoying when trying ot leap out a vehicle and attack but you can't because you lag a bit.
S'worth a try then. Rhino's said a few times now that the way Qingling's new effects - the rapids, mostly - behave isn't quite like anything else in the mod, so it's causing a little problem for a few people sound-wise.
What's your onboard? I had the latest version of the Realtek stuff on this board before I disabled it, was really quite pleased with it generally but hated the drivers for it and wanted a good 5:1 system so upgraded to an X-Fi card - which sounds pretty damn good and handles the surround better than the onboard did.

Al Basrah lags like **** near the city for me, i've been told to reduce my texture settings ....
But i dont want to :(
I think my lag on Quinling was memory based, it just happened twice in 10 mins, then dissapeared.

Sorry to say it matey, but if you don't want to then deal with it.
A compromise has to met somewhere, even me with my supposed beasty machine have to compromise in some places.
When I had vista and 2GB of RAM, it lagged on high textures. Felt a bit like internet lag, but no. Reducing to medium and it played fine. Now I have 4GB and I can put textures on high again. Qinling seems to be producing the same lag as i had before, so I think turning textures down to medium again would solve it. But every other map is fine and it isnīīt that much lag anyway, so I will leave them on high. If you are getting lag though, my suggestion would be to try textures on a lower setting.

Neg on that one mate - if you're only laggy on Quinling and not Fool's Road, try dropping your sound settings by one notch if they're very high at the min.
Or, try one and then the other lol, see what works :)
All i can say is *bollocks*, moaning just gets me going :rolleyes:
I have an old system, x800pro graphics, AMD3500+ CPU, 2 GB ram, x-fi sound.
No lag. In game setting at Medium, res 1280*1024 @75hz. (i dropped my sound to High)
The map looks very sexy for both heli and tank wars... i reckon it's gonna be one of my favs.
If you cant taxi its not the mappers fault. (even if the drop off the runway seems a little big :o)
and @ Banner.. trust me it is soooo much more fun to play at Medium settings than have loads of lag... I used to have all setting at High.. which was fine till Basrah came around on the rotation. The extra bling is not worth the lag.

Banner shouldnt need to run at medium with his Pc.
I lag like bugger on this map. Shame cos it's a gorgeous looking thing and I could have epic fun with a full squad and a RHIB on that lake
Banner shouldnt need to run at medium with his Pc.
errr
Al Basrah lags like **** near the city for me, i've been told to reduce my texture settings ....
Sounds like textures should be on Medium to me...
Maybe he 'shouldn't' need to.. but sounds like he 'does' need to. :p if you know what i mean.

I have one 8800gtx running everything on high with no lag on any map - surely 8800GTS x2 should outperform that??
Sadist_Cain
09-01-08, 12:58
surely a 7600GT-Z should outperform an x800? who knows what demon has possessed mine and banners PCs
said it once i'll say it again. i get no lag on thereand my settings are banged right up except sound at med or hi.
8800's in SLI shouldn't cause any lag unless the pc is not set up correctly. Simple as that.

I take it you guys with lag have checked for spyware/malware/adware etc?
Also, uninstalled your crappy limewire & other PtP stuff?

that is actually my favorite map to play at the moment......
you can use the SOFLAM alot more often....great size of map, better tactics are used....
clues:
don't park on treestumps, or try to run them over at highspeed,(not the dead trees laying down, the stumps sticking srtaight up)
when taxeing, don't aim stright where you wanna go around turns, there is a whole plane to taxi, not a cockpit, when taxeing you turn very hard, so go as far foward then turn
only lag i get is the helicopter glitch....
i'm only useing 1.5gig ddr ram , geforce 7600 gs agp x8
graphics set to ultimate, then moved textues and dynamic lighting down to high....
and on my logitech g15 i watch to see how much ram is being used and it's only at 85% full on the biggest of pr maps....
Banner if you've got problems with lag, check sound settings.
If they're on ULTRA, drop them to HIGH. Should fix it, simple as. Sounds in 0.7 are more complex than in 0.6, and X-Fi cards piss about with them to the point where it becomes a bottleneck.
It's what i call a "Kashan Map" plane, tank and helo fest" large areas that take forever to run across if no wazzock stops to give you a lift - as happens practically everytime i've played unless i'm on TS with a squad.
I spent nigh on a full Quinling map rotation just running everywhere the other night, was not impressed.

Well the textures are down to medium ...
Not much difference visually tbh, but the lags gone :D
Sarge
I have noticed that it is my View Distance Scale that is making me lag. I have to put it low so i have less lag. I have a Highly outdated Laptop where most of my options are on low lol. I put My View distance on 100% last night, I lagged a bit but it was playable. I'm going to try the sound solution. I don't have a clue about my PC.
There is a link which was posted in my clans Forums About lag/stutterin Issues.

never have had that problem on the server i play on, PM me if you wanna know the ip and name, i wont advertise it.......
only problem i have ever had, was running out of vodka on this map ;)
and about the lag, i must agree about the sound, never really thought about that, i love the sound on this map, our tank sqaud hops out at the same time and can mark enemy tank from 1.5 km almost exactly (hops out, driver switching to f3)
i have found some servers have way tooo many noobs that don't want to learn or care, found one last night playing Ejod desert, thats why i stick with my same server i always play, muture players 98% of the time, DVB used to be a good server, but when .7 came out they all left for some reson.....and uninstalled the mod from the server :(
