Brick lag-
Unfortunately, this is most likely RAM related, meaning you have to buy more.

Not sure if thats it but i freeze alot while playing blockland, 75% of the time is bricks 5% Particle 15% the map itself 5% other.


Anything other i can do than buy RAM?

RAM is not your problem. how much do you have?

1.09 Ghz 512 mb RAM

I have exact RAM as you.. I don't have any problems..
and your CPU is a bit more stronger than mine.

My computer freezes alot.. i wish i could show you but sometimes i can look at 1000 bricks and sometimes it will freeze me.. its really dumb :/

My comp has a low memory amount. The guy who sold me my comp ripped me off, i believe so at least. 38.16 GB(Max) 10.52 Gb(Used) 27% Free Space
I have a NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200 and a Windows XP

I forgot to mention i have my settings like this on blockland;
Hware Light quality : 1.000 at the <-- (Bad or good i cant tell?)
Texture light : Same
Texture
particle
and shadow all on Minimum.
I started playing 720 480, but originally played  800 600 not full screen
Both dynamic lights off (bad or good idk?)
Disable Vsync on
and everything else is defualt
ADVANCED:
Anistropy: 0
Draw dist: .193
EVERY BOX HERE IS UNCHECKED
then
i usually play with the three (fall off dist max fall off and grass ratio) on max performance ->

1. Check console.log for crap and fail
2. Check your fps (metrics(fps); in console)

it may be the geforce 3 series.. on my old computer i had the 6th series..

perhaps your video card isn't strong enough to handle blockland? (which sounds pretty silly..)
I'm not sure what to tell you..
I'll tell you that your hard drive is small compared to allot of others.

Have you updated all drivers?

No it don't. Get a new one.

Yes my drivers are updated, I can play the game..
I freeze when i see bricks.
Probally gonna get ram stick anyways.

Blockland worked fine on my GeForce 2.

If you get more, make sure you get the right stuff. It very easy to make a mistake if you don't know what your doing. You'd be best off buying a whole new computer though.

If you bought it used, I would recommend a reformat. Make sure you have your windows install cd and driver cd's that came with it.

My ram is 1gb and 2.7ghz so I know its neither of them. Its most likely your graphics card get a new one, if you have a desktop.
