Who uses the debug.dll

Just answer the question, do you use the debug.dll to help the devs in determining the cause of the many crashes.

I always use the debug .dlls. However .5 has been crashing without generating the report.

Although so far I've only crashed on TC_Marshes, which was an issue with .4.9 as well.

My FPS is too low, so until I figure out how to OC my CPU (seems to be the bottleneck) I can't turn it on without crippling my FPS

I didn't use it yet, mostly because I've never had many crash problems.

0.4.9 crashed about... 3 times? And two of three times were because my HDD wasn't properly connected anymore due to the SATA cable being squashed between the gfx cooler and the motherboard (stupid SATA connector positions).

I considered using it in 0.5 due to more frequent crashes now but I suppose I'm not the only one with that problem.

I think the debug .dlls should be mandatory.  Screw the performance hit, it's very minor and this is a beta.  A minor inconvenience now for a great benefit in the future.

How minor is it?

I managed to squeeze some FPS out of my rig (due to discovering how to make it show FPS) so I may turn it on as long as it won't kill me in chaotic fights (which take about 20-30 FPS off of me currently)

XTREMEFX2.pak is what, where, why?



Sure it felt different but so did my wife after the kids were born. A little loose but it still gets me off every time. -- Suspect

always had them on, cannot model or anything so its the best way to help the mod,not that any of my crashes in 0.5 have generated any reports
A hunger to fight, a thirst to conquer
As battle cries flow from the depths of my soul
Lightning strikes behind the war field
The enemy attack force becomes clear
Fools they were to challenge us.
They will pay with their lives.
For we will not give up
I am a warrior
