Re: 100% cpu load

I'm not a coder, but the other devs say this is standard.

Re: 100% cpu load

some informations about your pc would be cool.
are other applications running in the background?
did u install all the needed drivers?
did u experience such problems with other games?
...

even if a "high" cpu usage is standard, u shouldnt run into problems, normally (or u got a really bad pc)

Re: 100% cpu load

cpu athlon 3800+ (2.4 GHz)
>other applications running in the background?
yes, but only teewordls load cpu (it's shown on process explorer with processes of all users shown)
>did u install all the needed drivers?
yes, i'm install newest nvidia driver
>did u experience such problems with other games?
play only cs 1.6. It's haven't any cpu problems.


Am i have right expect: teeworlds use CPU instead of GPU(video adapter)?

Re: 100% cpu load

teeworlds uses the graficcard for grafics ofc... also games take as much CPU as they can get so its normal that tw does it too.
I gues you just have lags...

You can activate the fps display... it shows how many frames tw can render in one second.
Just hit F1 and type cl_showfps 1

Re: 100% cpu load

you may try cl_cpu_throttle 1
so the process will sleep after every execution of the main loop, which could reduce an unused amount of cpu (IF it is unused, otherwise this will create lags)

Re: 100% cpu load

>Just hit F1 and type cl_showfps 1
it's become lags more and haven't any other changes

>I gues you just have lags...
now ping about 50. I'm think it isn't lags

Re: 100% cpu load

This is normal?

Seriously, I had to deactivate on-demand over-clocking just for this game, because otherwise my whole desk is vibrating with the fan when I play teeworlds. I was almost about to file a bug report, but now I'll try again with "cl_cpu_throttle 1" - so thanks for bringing this up!

Re: 100% cpu load

Teeworlds will get in the future an automatic cpu throttling which will reduce the cpu usage to a fraction of the current cpu usage. But this feature will be maybe introduced after Teeworlds 0.6.0.
