I updated the app and fixed some sound, memory, and decompiling problems. I also fixed the problem with ADI thanks to swamp fox. Check out Vicis

NICE! that sounds like it will work for me for some reason.

EDIT: would not let me rebuild because of some error. Object out of reference or something like that.

Thats what I said

But we should keep a format
Computer Type - PC
Processor, Type and Speed - Pentium 4; 2.8GHz
RAM - 1.25GB

Code: Select all

[b]Computer Type - [/b] PC/MAC
[b]Processor, Type and Speed - [/b] _________ ; ____GHz
[b]RAM - [/b] _______MB/GB

code for the next person(fill in the blank, and pick between PC and MAC)
Minimum - Decopile and Rebuilding time is 2-4 minutes

Computer Type - HP Pravilion PC
Processor, Type and Speed - AMD athalon; 2.4GHz
RAM - 512MB

Thats the stats of my home PC and it take around 30 minutes for the whole proccess of decompiling to rebuilding and I need to shut off all apps to prevent locking up.

hey guys heres my pc stats

p4 duo 2.8 with 4 gigs ram

entire build took less then 15 mins

1st decompiling took took around 1min 15 secs, if i remeber

still looking for help on barrier creation

Computer Type - MAC
Processor, Type and Speed - Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz w/HyperThreading
RAM - 1 GB

Takes 'bout 10-15 Minutes to decompile, rebuild, move spawns, resign, ftp, and enjoy. So, good timing for everything I guess. Like 1-2 minutes for both the decompiling and the rebuilding.

EDIT : I can listen to music, and be in entity's bsp viewer with no lag to my computer at all.

Oh, and btw, for whoever wanted to make barriors, you take a huge wall/bloc/mach or anything with collision and null all of its shaders. Then, you place it in entity (or you might have to place it before you null the shaders.)

Or, you could use my idea....well, bungie's idea. Create AI turrets, make them stay in one spot, and surround the area with them and give them great aiming. So, once you get in a certain range, you get pwned...by AI turrets....sweet!

I say that this app should have a minimum of 2.5 GHz Processor, 512 MB RAM For resonable speeds around 20 minutes
but we should still wait for more results

XTHIRST · Post by **XTHIRST** » Wed Mar 07, 2007 11:34 am

well, 512 might be pushing it ... Id say 2.5 ghz and 1GB ram.. that would give good results to everyone

My 512 mb Ram did not give me even close to twenty minutes, more like 6 hours, but it worked. I think that you should have to try and at least have about a gig of ram.

XTHIRST · Post by **XTHIRST** » Wed Mar 07, 2007 12:04 pm

Mine is coming along quite nicely!

MAJOR TIP!

Ok, I have 1GB of ram.. say thats not working for me and I want 4 gigs of ram, but I don't wanna go and buy it. Well, heres my/your fix.

1st - Go to Start > Control Panel
2nd - Click on Performance and Maintenance > Adjust visual effects
3rd - Click the tab named "Advanced"
4th - At the bottom there should be a "Paragraph" named Virtual Memory.
5th- Hit the button named "Change" and make your settings look like this -

6th - Hit "Set" and then hit "ok" and then hit "ok" again.

7th- Restart your computer and you have 4 GB of ram!

Computer Type - PC
Processor, Type and Speed - Dunno ; 3.06 (Or 3.6, I forget)GHz
RAM - 1GB

Takes >30 minutes to decompile/compile.

Also, I'm guessing the paging file thing takes room from your HD? =/

latinomodder · Post by **latinomodder** » Wed Mar 07, 2007 1:27 pm

lol I just added 8 gigs of ram on two partitions.
BTW in vista you can use flash drives as memory

If you don't have that option you can always use the disk cleanup tool and the defragmenter
