Nah, stronger CPU won't help. More cores would. But it should be possible to optimize Salem client in this matter a bit. I'm pretty sure it doesn't "need" the whole CPU. Some additional sleep in the main loop maybe? Or between frames? Other thing is not many people run more than 2-3 clients at the same time
The client aims for 50 fps when rendering. If it doesn't get that, it settles for less, but it almost never gets that
Not for my processor anyway. If you run a custom client through a .bat file, you can view debug info like the framerate by launching with the -d flag:
- Code: Select all
java -jar salem.jar -d -U http://game.salemthegame.com/res/ game.salemthegame.com

does the default client do this now, too? That was something I specifically implemented in my version.
