Downloaded the new client, checked drivers they are up to date. I can log in ok to the lobby but as soon as I try to play the loading thing comes up and then everything freezes for a few mins, then it all shuts down. :@

The client runs fine for me. it seems to be faster than the old java based one.
When i look at my task manager i see the process uses less processing power which is nice.
The client loads quicker than the old one.
for now i see one disadvantage. I cant scale the user interface to my preferred layout.
greets,

I downloaded the client, and was bummed to see adverts at the top of the new client. Is this something that goes away after initial login for members? I didn't even bother logging into the new client once I noticed the adverts, I just closed it down immediately. Really did not like having these on there...

This new client is far closer to release than the last one. There are still some issues with animation states (animations continuing while in fact the player state has changed and another animation should be displayed).

All in all impressive progress.

So far the client works okay, no disconnects and such. However, I find the shadows are applied with a too heavy hand! Especially is this noticeable in Prif. Instead of the glowing crystal walls we're used to and love, everything is now grey, grey, grey and a murky grey at that. Would prefer that shadows could be scaled instead of just turned on or off. Off gives too little definition, on is too much, especially in lower light areas of the map. More feedback to follow but those shadows are just not acceptable, at least not to me.

The light source that shines on held runes should get a dimmer, soul and death runes are too vague.

Prifdinnas looks like there are clouds hanging above it and I don't think that's right. Maybe there the sun should be more straight up so there are less shadows? Or walls could be small light sources as its crystal? Oh it's the brightness setting. Maybe you should set it's default setting higher.. :x My ideas dump thread

I know my computer is old, but I can not even get NXT to run at a playable frame rate even on the most minimal settings. I'm talking like 3-5 seconds to move a couple squares unplayable lag.... Help? or am I just screwed until I buy a new computer?

My PC specs are:
Windows 7 64 bit
*** Athlon 2 X 220 2.80 GHz
4 GB Installed RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE n force 430

Also random items like sharks and some polygons of objects are just black. And when I change a graphic setting or tele I have to turn all my sound back on for some reason those actions shuts all audio off in the game. Thanks and hope the feedback helps also.

EDIT: I don't want to come off as so negative! What I have played and seen seems amazing! I actually am very excited for it. Just want it to run smooth :P

Would love to play but: I have 3 brand new laptops a sony vio, a dell and a hp, all with windows 10 and fully up to date I can download the launcher but the client will not download on any of them error 13,28 on all 3 pc’s, I have used explorer, chrome and firefox no joy, thanks for the invite though.

I am getting similar problems to Elder raven with 3 sec delay at least in all movements and like him I just want it to run smoothly. I have tried all settings and the 3 sec delay applys to all from Min to High (cant get ultra but probably comp cant cope). Also when teleporting or moving a great distance there is nothing there when I arrive but over about 6-10 secs everything fades in (only way to describe it). Also had some instances of the mini map going black after teleporting.
Currently it is ok to use if doing something static like fishing at priff or hearts of ***lenor, I wouldnt like to be trying to do a slay task or pvm or running round on a quest.
Have to say really loving the graphics and really wish i could have smooth game play with ultra draw, but will be happy with smooth and high (please and thankyou :) )
Great job looking forward to seeing how this progresses, massive improvement for me since last beta weekend.
