The blood effects are simply new sprites - any effect on cpu would only be on client machines.
I'm very interested in what types of setups are seeing increases in cpu usage and what types are seeing decreases though. Are you using any addons? Ping boosters? Does it jump after a certain number of players on the server? Specific to any maps? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Fencik Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 8:06 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlds] DOD 1.2 CPU ARGHHHHHHHHH Hmmm...at first glimpse I would guess that the increased decals with the new blood may have something to do with it?
