I destroyed RP2's vis for the next release when Canadacdn wasn't looking. Because if your map doesn't have a complete vis it just makes it run worse.

I think the limit on alpha blended meshes is somewhere around only 5000 polygons also, so getting something on a large scale that has alot of blending is a huge task. Roleplay 2 of course i split all blended meshes to below 5k, the rest of it is just seperated enough that it wont lag most people.

Thats the rp2 in current state and thats excluding everything added from level edit. Our current tests run at great fps.

There isn't such a limit, they just start running slowly Listen

RP2 never used VIS, and the next version won't use any either. It wouldn't work on a map like it.

Jerad, that "VIS" you mentioned, I am unsure how that got there as RP2 doesn't even have any VIS sectors.

It doesn't wow such a huge map with no vis sectors surprised it doesn't lag like crazy.

Maybe if you have a crappy computer, then yes, it'll lag. But the requirements still aren't uber high, since Renegade is nice and allows you not to render things that you can't see.
