IDEAS FOR RYZOM

UPDATE: i found out exactly what the problem was...the sound...in the settings there is a slider that you can use to choose the number of tracks that the world plays at any given time, and i had to cut it down to 4...it was at some insane number like 150+...so maybe if i had a proprietary sound driver for this PC in linux format, then it would not shutter as much, now the problem is gone, but a better driver would certainly enable better handling of the sound without cutting it down to bare minimum...

the ticket i opened up is here for the devs so they can point people to it later if they need to:

https://bitbucket.org/ryzom/ryzomcore/issue/81/particle-system-pr oblem-maybe-sound-effect

in windows os it's limited to 32 max (for me at least, with a top of the line soundblaster card)

32 is the max limit in my linux version of the client as well

thanks for the info i will check in a few minutes when i log on to see what my linux settings are for sound, perhaps i only turned down the graphics and forgot to turn off the sound but usually i  just turn it OFF since it does seem to prevent certain crashes)

i dont suppose you have any idea how to fix some of the other linux problems? i will be making a forum post shortly linking to all the linux posts i can find i look forward to your reply in that thread
