Terrain Deformation of Thunderclap

[Antares]

Hello,
seems like I have yet another problem.

All spells that use a Thunderclap or Warstomp spell in any way seem to cause serious lags when used. As both spells deform the terrain and I have never experienced this problem before I made a new terrain, Im concluding that the terrain deformation is causing the lag.

Simple question: Can I turn it off?

 

[takakenji]

nope.

 

[Antares]

nope.

That sucks, big time. Must retrigger many spells now...

 

[takakenji]

are you using any special effects on the thunder clap?

special effects cause leaks, which may be causing your lag

 

[Antares]

I am aware about that, the lag im describing is definatly caused by these spells. when I start my map, choose a hero with a warstomp ability that is just... warstomp, and use it... there it is.

edit: yep, just replaced a spell based on thunderclap with howl of terror. no lag.

Serious? 1 War stomp caused you that much lag? That sounds like a stretch.

In the last days I encountered many bugs, where I thought: "Wait.. what? Thats makes no sense at all. Thats like you look through the microscope and see space ships flying through the solar system."

Lets see whats the next one.

Well you can remove the terrain deformation by removing the ubersplat creation using Magos Model Editor.

waves and terrain deforming models/spells really cause lag especially if more than one is activated at the same time...

if Im not mistaken, you are talking about the thunderclap effect art? the problem is the thunderclap spell itself.

you can remove the ubersplat but I don't think you can remove the waving effect of casting thunderclap...
