I may have already posted my query in the wrong thread, so I moved it here. It is I guess concerning 2.6
Having now been playing and enjoying RS II for a considerable length of time I thought I'd take a peek at 2.5 and see what new. I played 30 - 40 turns without any major issues, all good on the whole. I then drifted back to RS II......some time past and now I'm back checking out 2.5, + the 2.6 patch this time around! I have everything set up correctly, with script running. Several turns into 2.6 and I had my first battle, 2 reasonably sized armies, nothing too spectacular. However, the first thing I noticed in the pre-battle phase was a significant FPS hit as I scrolled in on my units. It's very noticable for me when I compare this to RS II where there was hardly if any drops at all while viewing units up close. I'm losing 40 or so FPS while scrolling down to view a unit.
For the record I'm running the exact same settings in 2.6 as I am in RS II, so not quite sure what's changed that might be causing such a dramatic decrease. Is it due to some graphical improvements brought to 2.6? I'm not running larger unit sizes or using a different screen res and I don't see any changes in the menu. Just somewhat puzzled over this...
