Author Topic: Blockland + Dual Core? (Read 1243 times)

This may be a stupid question, but does blockland use dual core?

It's openGL and not top of the line, but just in case.

I'm about to get a new PC with a Dual core in it, this wouldn't change my mind but I'm just curious. Answered.

yah. badspot even linked somewhere an AMD dual core fix for open gl or torque or something.
something about the game running to fast on a few processes without it

I've always wondered, If I get a quad core could Blockland still run to fast. My dual core makes it run too fast already.

Do you have an AMD Dual Core processor? There's a fix for that, but I'm not sure for quad cores.
If you do have AMD, the patch to fix that is here.

I've been running Dual Core with Blockland for months now, nothing different.
I'm using Intel, but if you use an AMD dual core Blockland may run too fast, in which case you'll have to download the patch to fix it. I'm not discouraging you from getting an AMD processor though.

I tried a little test to see if it does use both cores. I am not sure. It appears as if it does use the second core.

My friend has a dual core, and in most games it only uses 1 core, which = like 1.2 Ghz.
