  • i compiled nexuiz using mingw and msys, as in Xeno's tutorial.

    I moved the new nexuiz.exe to the nexuiz folder and played it from there instead of the original exe, and it played, but whole game was kinda stuttery. I also noticed that the compiled exe was 1.79mb and the original was 1.74mb so maybe the one i compiled collected some sort of trash?

    and i compiled the darkplace engine using vc++ and the compiled exe was about twice as big as the original nexuiz exe and it had the same wierd stuttery problem.

    how do i fix this?

    thanks in advance for any help :wink:

  • No idea. Does the SDL one have the same problem?
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

  • Use release not the debug configuration. And you need various dlls for the dp to work properly. Get them from the lordhavoc's dp windows build.
