[RESOLVED] Main menu mouse lag & is there any way to improve ghosting?

[fearedbliss]

@Ülthör I've released the fixes and you can read more about it here: viewtopic.php?t=200

Let me know if it works for you .

@Ülthör @Manny I have a new fix for the Main Menu (D2Win.dll) that should solve this problem once and for all. Once the fix is in, the fix will just work and you won't even need cnc-ddraw anymore as a workaround either. I'm doing some final testing and clean ups and then I'll get it ready for release. I should be releasing it a little later today. Stay tune.

Nice!

@Manny The published changes includes the fixes for the Main Menu in D2Win.dll, and also I've optimized the CPU fix for In Game as well which is part of other stuff in D2Client.dll. That optimization was applied to all the versions including 1.10. make sure you update all of your Singling files. I added some instructions for that in the release post, just in case.

Thank you @fearedbliss!

I just finished updating all my platforms (1.05b, 1.07, 1.09b, & 1.10) with the new Singling files. I like to keep my Cactus fresh with the latest & greatest

@Manny Haha nice. If you wanna test if it works, you can run D2 with -w flag which will cause it to not use cnc-ddraw and will use the old d2 renderer. The game should not lag in the main menu. You can remove the -w when you are done. Let me know if you experience any weirdness in general.

It works great in 1.05b and beyond

Nice @Ülthör. Glad to hear .

After launching 1.05b, it also works in 1.00 now!

[fearedbliss]

Haha. Yup @Ülthör, I fixed it for 1.00-1.09b. And also included some slight cpu enhancements for 1.10 as well.

Tried testing it with the -w flag and it worked perfectly without any lag. Good to know the fix works even without cnc-ddraw, but I will continue to use that for the nice config & shader support. Anyways, awesome work on this! Thanks again.
