CAVs are great
But :X @ the slooooooooooooooooow reception on forums and such. A bit of a reflection of our teeny community that.
Yeah, like absolutely no forum activity. Oh well, maybe it was also a reflection of how it was released in a beta universe as well.
My first complaint for 4.2 has to be the extreme clutter and total lack of slider-window organization for CAVs. D:
lolz
This is what my 4.2 looks like about half the time.

>_< @ what I'm saying in that screen shot. I’m noticing some considerable more lag in 4.2, even on 30m. Mostly when someone applies their new CAV D:
Upgrade your computer!
Totally did not experience problems with 4.1 me.
Slow reception = prolly cause a lotta people have already seen it on 4.2 uni. Not much has changed….well nothing has I guess
I wonder what they’ll be doing about user submitted CAV content.
Mipmapped pictures ssuuuurreee are nice. Only wish it was default
Sure would be neat to be able to click a sign at a “store” and a shirt that you saw was put on your body automatically
Some People Are having turbble Upgrading to 4.2 wich can be fixed upgrade then drag the xmlite.dill into the reg activewolrds folder from the beta

I notice a lot of lag when I have a group of lets say 20 to 30 cav’s infront of me. Otherwise I’d say I see an improvement in fps for me. The once laggy buildings in Zelena (like one or two) now hit around 30fps for me
Yeah I think I’m getting faster frame rates overall, it’s just cav’s that kill me (like crash sometimes) when people in a group are changing them around a lot.
That and the sign mask thing…
Mipmapping seems to be working well
Except for with masks, I think Commie was saying yesterday.
Yep, big ugly edges around masks D:
