Blockland Crashes on Launcher (Dad's Old PC)
(1/4) > >>

Specs:
382 MB RAM
SiS 760
AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3000+ ~1.8 Ghz

This is NOT my computer, it's my Dad's.
Also, Blockland retail worked in an older verison, it's the launcher I think causing the problem.

That's about as much help as Apple tech support?  Having trouble?  Buy a new computer.

Right now, his priority is getting a new house.  Not a new computer.

My laptop has 12 gigabytes of ram. Your dad's computer has less than 1/24th of that. I'm sorry, you are using antiquated technology incapable of playing a modern video game reasonably.

In order for things to be more fun for everyone else, such as raising max brick limits, max player limits, adding more features, removing the cap on physics vehicles, older technology has to be dropped out of support. Your computer has to be at least 10 years old, and like an old dog that faithfully served his family, it needs to be put out of its memory.

There is no voodoo magic or secret console command I can give you to make Blockland run on a computer this ancient.

*There appears to be nothing wrong with the launcher.  It's the computer.  Post the startup sequence of the console.log

**Understood, but why complain over this being a problem when the solution is impossible.  Better to lock...
