With warbot, I get 25mb out of AC, and 25mb for the skunkworks program. With LT, it goes up to 100mb for AC. ;/


Could it be a combined problem of Decal's alpha-state and Turbine's horrible code?

With no characters in game, my acclient is listed as 130mb. I can duel log, with tank on both. Buffing on both is a strain, but can do without crashing.


But I often see client run between 150 and 250mb


These are full screen modes.

Frelorn just locked that thread on Turbines forums regarding this topic.


Does he have any clue what PR snafu he just committed there?


/e shakes his head sadly.


I feel so slapped.

Let's see, he said they were aware of it, unable to reproduce it, and locking the thread because it was getting off topic. Sounds like he was doing his job to me.

I'd say his reply was a forced one thats a few weeks too late. I'm canceling one of my accounts as I always keep my promises. Possibly two. The only thing keeping the third up is friends and ELTank. It's on the edge too though.

Well, in typical Turbine style, they have officially blown off the problem.


Frelorn locked the thread on the Turbine boards basically saying they can't reproduce it, thus it is a non-problem.


Gotta love it.

Try reading again, that isn't what he said.

One more thing to kill AC I guess. That a bunch crap if they cannot reproduce it, as I have 4 computers, all with AC on them. My systems don't have the same hardware, and I get memory problems on all of them.

It has been stated many times before that this board was intended for players to help other players. While our supposrt folks do post here every onece in a while, it is not part of their job to do so. If you are having issues, please feel free to call or email our support staff. They are very helpful when it comes to resolving issues like this.


As far as this matter goes, the team is aware of some issues with memory leaks, and we are always working to try and improve performance. The biggest problem we run into with an issue like this is reproducing it. If we cannot reproduce the problem, then it is very difficult for us to fix it.


The issue appears to be related to certain configurations, but even in those cases we have not been able to consistantly reproduce the issue. We will continue to try and get this resoved for everyone, but until that time I will be closing this thread, since it has degraded to threats and strayed a bit off of the original topic.

Maddy, given his track record, and given what I know of the problem, I have to believe he blew it off until proven otherwise.


I am not at all happy about the level of non-support shown by Turbine in recent months.
