Myth II 1.6 - My 2c

[AblitERateOR]

Firstly I'm aware you're probably aware of most of these probs but i thought id put in my 2c anyway.

The UB icon for the 1.6 update (not sure about the normal icon) is not very smooth and the white background hasnt been rendered transperent, looks quite nasty in the dock lol

The UB is smooth, all lobby and game lag is gone and fps has gone from 60 in 1.5.2 to 160, though I would have perhaps expected higher not that it makes any diff at all. Just 2 lil things.. holding down the up arrow in game to see previous text flickers. Also the F5 key now just turns fps on instead of autocam

[CIK]

The icon and flicker are fixed already. Try using F12 for the autocam. F5 & F12 where autocam and I took F5 for FPS since the key for FPS isn't on a Notebook.

I'm guessing you are using the Intel build, because the PPC has been found to have a serious OOS issue.

yup im on an intel comp. F12 triggers expose so its not very helpful for autocam, it was nice having the toggle for team/friend foe colours moved off an expose, maybe we could have a non conflicting key for autocam?

ok, i am using build 283b UB and i founda couple more things, im sure you're prolly aware of them but thought id post them just incase..

myth often crashes to desktop if cmd-tabbed during loading.

the biggie: 'Open saved games' does not work, just crashes myth from both the main screen and in game.

From the myth log:
