[b79.6] Laggy servers, too high rate of chunk updates

[Terex 108]

I really can't provide any information. My mate from Australia and I (in Germany) used to play TFC b78 on MC 1.6.4 without too much lag (say response times of breaking stuff within 1 second). Our ping is (360 ms) with Hamachi.

 

Now with TFC b79.6 (clean installation) the game is unplayable. The lag is so bad, it takes well over 30 seconds for a response. We tested vanilla MC 1.7.10 with no problems. We also added Optifine to help with the chunk loading, but made no difference with the TFC mod. I also found chunk updates remain very high (100 updates or so) even after a while, say 10 min. Also on single player, i find the rate of chunk updates remains very high. Finally, my mate also reported flashes of the underground repeatedly loading in and out of view. 

 

Any ideas? Do you also experience much laggier online multiplayer worlds than you had with TFC 78?

1.7.10 is ridiculously laggy all on its own compared to 1.6.4. TFC just makes this problem more obvious, which is why build 80 will probably just be the update to 1.8 as quickly as possible.

Is it just me, or are all the great mods with a lot of intense development always racing to keep up with official releases?But yea, here's hoping the developers catch some good luck in the next build. Eager to see what they have in mind as far as all the suggestions here are going.

Thanks for the encouraging replies Good things will come to those who wait.

For me it was laggy, too.

Well, I fixed it by starting Minecraft with more Ram and since I've done this, I have no problems anymore with 58 mods installed and Shaders Ultra + FastCraft 1.9.

Racing is not the correct word, cursing, throwing tantrums, rewriting everything from scratch *again*, but no racing.

In case anyone doesn't know: in the launcher edit the profile, select "JVM arguments" and write "-Xmx2G" into the field, where 2 is the amount of gigabytes of RAM you want to use, you can write any number here that your PC can support.

The JVM arguments will definitely help for SSP or client side, but if they are having tps issues on a server then they'll want to adjust their launch parameters. Again it may end up needing more RAM, but like the client too much is also a bad thing. From what I'm seeing on my SSP client 2G for RAM is plenty for clients and I would not suggest going higher unless running shaders/HD textures. I do suggest bumping up the permgen as well. -XX:PermSize=128M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M I use this in the JVM arguments I have for a very full pack and they seem to run TFC well.
