hi guys, this alpha4 client is much better than alpha2 and 2021.10.0, i have had no problems at all, no crashes, disconnects or any other naughty behaviour, nice one!

go into freeview, then ctrl-v again with no spacebar, this will give freeview but with mexes and healthbars and you can adjust height, 0 and . (ins and del) on the number pad will rotate the view and there is no height restriction. if you hit space it will exit from this view.

Awesome, thank you very much Sheikah

the single threaded benchmark is the most relevant for faf https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html

except faf is not a single threaded software
pause a game and have a look in the task manager
you will see up to about 22 threads spread on up to 3 cores
the sim thread runs by itself on 1 core, usually maxed to 100%, this thread/core is the limiting factor
the other main threads such as rendering, networking and audio run on other cores

just select stereo at 44.1 k and 16 bit

dude, 5.1 and 7.1 are surround

the client window not being "captured" by the mouse cursor glitch is an old one, i use my client minimized a bit so i can have a browser open next to it (equal sizes 1920x1080), if i stretch the client a small amount then i can grab the title bar and move the client around, however if i stretch it too much little squares of desktop wallpaper show up in the client window, this has been happening for a long time (more than a year?). There is another possible w7 glitch where the chat list is broken into halves, so i have some guys A-Z, and then another bunch of guys also A-Z, and then the chat only guys, this goes back to about client version 23, but i'm not too worried about either of these glitches tbh

ofc that's a yes to testing if needed

the alpha client works fine and the line -XX:+UseG1GC is there

Awesome, thank you very much Sheikah

ok i managed to unzip it but it's too big to post, the last few lines are 2023-06-28T14:13:48.050+10:00 WARN 2776 --- [JavaFX Application Thread] c.f.c.g.GamesTilesContainerController : Tried to remove game tile that did not exist.

there is a client log but i can't copy and paste or drag and drop into the forum for some reason

new client does not start for me, neither does the the alpha before that.
