[Vilica]

Hey Guys! what PC i need to play RS II or III with high vegetation quality ? at the moment im with GTX 1060 6GB intel core i5 6600k 3.5GHz, 8GB ram DDR4 2133.
and still when put high Q.V. in battle im with .. 20 max 25 fps and after 5 min battle bumm roma stop work blabla, what need for this option ? because i feel and nvidia tesla cant help me

Lowering the resolution increased my fps significantly while playing RS2.6. But vegetation was on medium settings.

I have a self build rig, AMD6300 6x 3.5 GHz (turbo boost to 4.2 if I want) 8gb RAM, 1Tb hdd, Sata III, 2gb GeForce nVidia gtx 750. My settings are; Terrain, Building, Effects & Vegetation on high, Unit detail & Grass on medium, Unit size is large and I use Widescreen. Campaign shadows, Glints/Reflections are left unchecked. I use Shadowplay for recording my Let's Play's and I have 30-60 fps (variable) and rarely have any lag. My OS is Win 7 Pro (64 bit). You can check out my channel to see for yourself if you like (RS III Athens campaign), the link is in my signature below. PS. I know RTW only uses 1 core, but I use my computer for other things.

I think I understand where you are coming from, In this folder: ....\data\_IMPORTANT_STUFF\Alternate_Strat_Trees <You will find a 'reduced lag' folder. Copy and paste into your RTW directory\data >this should help quite a lot.
Thank you for supporting my Let's Play on youtube

Roma Surrectum's trees lag because they are unoptimized, I'm currently optimizing all RS vegetation models to 1/3 to 1/10 of the polycount without sacrificing too much detail. Also I made several new models and made new variations on existing models.

I already send some of my models to dvk.

These models reduce the prevalence of framerate drops (below 30) during to the point that they are almost non-existent when running the game on rather high (not highest) graphics on my main PC which has a 3.2Ghz processor as long as there aren't more then 8000-10000 men on the battlefield. at 8000 men I experience small framerate drops (down to 20 fps) in very dense forests. However the game keeps running very smooth till 10000 men at more open battlefields.

Also I have plans to render 1024x1024 sprites because rtw's automatically generated sprites are of very low quality. This would make far sprite distances obsolete.

This looks amazing...

[tone]

Yes, some of the RS2 poly counts were a bit high!
Keen not to lose the beech and birch trees though.

[Mamlaz]

some of my models

Impressive work man.

[20ninescene]

@tone I'm currently working on the beech and birch trees. I had finished them but I accidentally overwrote them so I have to make them again :/
@Mamlaz @Zarathoustra Thanks, I also made some mushrooms, however I made them a little too big

Update: I did another test run of my trees in vanilla, this time with more success: (please not that everything except the trees is 100% vanilla)

Awesome work

That's crazy !
This is for Cimbri's berserkers right ?

[Mamlaz]

I made some new trees out of existing models:
This is an example of a sweet chestnut tree made out of an European hornbeam

Top tier stuff

[LavaCreeper]

This looks very good, hopefully dvk will add them to RS. If they help the framerate that much with little quality loss, I see no reason not to .

[20ninescene]

Well you'll get a better framerate plus better graphics

[Vilica]

Thanks you!

Was this ever released?

[Roman Soldier]

Did you ever release the mod?
