This is the last announcement made on the server: Hi @everyone, this is IMPORTANT I hate to admit it, but it seems like we failed to get all the teams organized in time and we need to change the method to create the teams if we want to start the tournament soon and not in 2 years or never. That's why i believe that @SneakEP's Proposal about first getting the entire poll of players together and then deciding the teams will be optimal. So here are the rules: Click on the "video_game" Emoji if you want to play the tournament and be selected into one of the teams or tell it to me directly. Select "trophy" too if you want to candidate for a team leader spot or tell it to me directly. We have currently 30 players in here + 5 players that didn't went past the get-started channel(can somebody identify them?).This means we can get easily between 6 to 8 teams together, depending on how many want to play. Once we decide the team sizes and the amount of teams will the @team_leader pick their team. Each leader can pick whoever he wants to from the poll of players, be it a very op player or a good friend. The weakest @team_leader has the right to pick first. Each leader can pick only then the next player if every other team picked a member. This will prevent first come first served basis and help greatly with the balance. A few players mentioned that they desire a different team size instead of 4, so we will have a second voting going on right here too. Pick the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5 for your desired team size. Each player that picks the "video_game" Emoji agrees to play the entire tournament without quitting and will stay in the team he was picked in without any resistance or he will be banned from the Tournament. I hope we can start with the Tournament soon, tbh i got tired of organizing it, so i hope you will contribute your part and we can start with the fun part soon.

I'm not sure anyone knows what @Langbart is planing about BoonGUI. This project brought a very refreshing UI to 0ad. I decided to introduce in ProGUI the original BoonGUI panel. You can easily choose to switch between ProGUI and BoonGUI, and have one of them preset for Spectating and when Playing. You could already switch between mods automatically using @seeh's autocivP, but I also wanted to add the option here. BoonGUI overlay: ProGUI overlay: I disabled by default the panel to control the features such as the Trainer and Auto-Tribute. Some players were just using the overlay but the features were still draining some performance. Option page, you can define when to use BoonGUI or ProGUI, and you can enable the additional panel with ProFeatures: If you used previous ProGUI versions, and the advanced features, you may enjoy being able to customize the panels even more: I would probably also help maintaining a BoonGUI representation. I'm not as op dev as @Langbart but I'll still do it. I'll try to get this new version published on the mod downloader so that the classical BoonGUI overlay is also downloadable from it. Shame it wasn't already but I know it was a @Langbart choice not to. Since he didn't say anything, I'll assume I can/should do this.

We will kick off the tournament this weekend. I will use this topic here to post all the announcements and standings of the tournament in here, so that people who do not use discord will stay in touch. You are welcome to take part in the tournament even when you are not in the discord server. Just write down your username and i will transmit you to the team leaders, so they can/will pick you into their team. But you have to get inside the discord server if you want to become a team leader on your own. Here is the link: https://discord.gg/Zbb8rCnz This is the final registration now and you will agree to take part in the tournament with whichever team you are picked in.

@BeTe you mention that the lag specially happens during big fights. This is probably due to the corpses that accumulate and need to be rendered. There is an mod called autociv that allows you to reduce the maximum number of corpses (go to settings page, then autociv tab), you might give it a try and see if it helps.

ye that help a bit, but not so much then may some expect. and its maybe a bit of cheating (could be discussed). i like it. use it sometimes (not at the moment). => wheyNot mod or use A27 => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4_saKLFfcE

I could turn them into 3 separate civs: Iberians, Celtiberians, and Lusitanians.

You are probably referencing the release candidate for a27. These changes are not in that version, but I’m certain there will be another release candidate on the way later. so I’d say stay tuned for the next release candidate to drop, and then you will be able to play test the Sparta update.

There are mods that even make it uglier. Like @Yekaterina's. Maybe it also reduces load, she might tell you.
