How the hell are people even playing this I have a 1660 Super and 16gb of ram but even when I set all the video options to the lowest I still can't play shit like sometimes it lets me load into the sandbox but then if I spawn a character or two I just get a not enough memory error and crashes

If it's happening in the sandbox editor, just click to change the way the camera works, or just press alt

Every time it happens to me, doing that fixes the problem
what do u mean ? just pressing alt does literally nothing. ive tried a lot.

when this bug occurs, the game window does not respond at all. my last selected object moves with the mouse but i cant do anything - cant change camera or whatever. only parts of the UI respond.

I have a 1080, and it barely pulls in 30-60FPS on high. 32 or 16 I didn't see any difference. Maybe your processor is weak or your OS is messed up.

In addition to being a tracker, we also seed every single torrent on our platform. We do this to allow for quick downloads on any game, and because most people don't bother with seeding which would leave us tracking mostly dead torrents (which is kind of useless).

The "problem" is that having multiple machines seeding 16tb on a 24/7 basis costs us money – money that is donated to us by our users for a service that benefits them.
When RPDL was started, all our torrents were public and we didn't require users to log into anything. This worked great and people loved it, until we realized that multiple third-party sites started sharing our torrents as their own. This meant that we had a lot more traffic from people who weren't aware where their torrents originally came from.
Seeding every game on F95zone at high speeds provides a good service and equally good experience to users.
We are crowdfunded, and can't provide our service to the users donating to have us exist if our machines are busy seeding to people who have never even heard of F95zone or RPDL.

That's why we went semi-private and now require accounts. Doing so allows us to attach a passkey to each torrent, and if we find our torrents being hosted on some other website, we cut that torrent's access to the swarm.

As for the rest:
1. We don't collect any access logs, account passwords are hashed and salted, there's no verification process, and you can use any kind of gibberish username/password you want.
2. I can't personally vouch for this as I'm a part of the team, but torrents under the RPDL name have been posted on here for over a year and a half. In that time, we've posted upwards of 30,000 torrents and haven't had anyone report them to F95 staff for containing any virus or malicious content. Our process consists of taking files from the links in the OP's, compressing them the most we can with 7z, and uploading them as torrents – that's basically it.
3. Concerning single-use accounts: yeah, we have a lot of them. Last I checked we were somewhere above 100,000. They're not ideal, but they allow us to maximize the privacy of our users while also being able to manage our service.

I hope this provides some clarity regarding our service.
We also get that needing to log into a random website to access a torrent is not for everyone, that's okay too.
If you haven't downloaded the update yet, I checked McAztec's torrent and got some pretty good speeds with it, so you shouldn't have to wait too long for the game either way.

At the end of the day, what matters is people getting their games one way or another.
Enjoy the latest update.
Thanks for the clarifications regarding the process and all, it makes sense now.

The fix for the single-use accounts would be to actually make the accounts more meaningful imo, to make them have some use (or purge them after a few months of inactivity but I know accounts don't take that much DB space).

I saw many private trackers use a points system to keep track of what's what and prevent excessive leeching. They keep track of your ratio on the torrents and if you drop down too low you cannot download anymore. You get points for seeding (or for donating actual funds or crypto or whatever to help with hosting costs) and you can use those to buy ratio basically. The problem with this is that it only works if the tracker is truly private and invite-only, otherwise people can just make new accounts.

I guess it works as it is either way if the point is only to identify the torrents. Good work so far!

ok let's assume he's paying people, you remember this is 100k a month correct? if the team is big that every update should be a big one per month. explain to me like I'm 5 years old the process where 100k a month is not enough to speed up the game updates.
hi, can you tell me the name of the game of your profile picture please? I would gladly appreciate that

Wow and here come the usual suspects out to attack people with AVERAGE computers, with the "You stupid, learn more and your pc is trash" straight away with the insults, I shouldn't have to think or do anything by myself, devs should optimise the game for me. I may not have a supership with the invalidia gpu or whatever its called, but I can atleast expect 144fps and no stuttering I can play AOE 2 just fine and it was released like what 2 years ago? I seen it appear on steam the microsoft game. Internet tough guy insulting my compuet I got from my granny when she died.

Heres my computer and set up in question, speaker set up:love: (Not to brag apology in adnavance). Just from looks alone it should run wildlife AdeptusSteve get the team to pull their socks up pls

guys why you being mean? The game will run. And as every true game knows 'If it runs, it can be played". So yeah even though it will take 36 hours to open, with a 10000ms offline ping lag

Try ctrl + alt + del (the usual way to the task manager). But don't start the task manager. Just abort and be back in the game. Now your object should not be attached to the mouse pointer any more. I'm using Win 10 and occasionally have the same problem.

any recommendations for which torrent to use?
Both have good speeds and contain the same content.
One has a bigger download size (13.9gb), but won't require extracting, the other has a smaller size (9.6gb), but will require extracting.

Welp, it's been a good run. I can't pay for the uncensored version(when all up to this point have been uncensored). So, farewell.

There is an uncensored version, it's available at gofile here:
or trough the torrents posted earlier by me and the rpdl team on the previous couple of pages.

I appreciate your response,
On paper you are right, those are possible solutions to issues that come with having a public tracker, or a semi-private one with no restriction on single-use accounts.
Despite that, we'll likely never implement one or the other. Doing so would require us tracking our users' activity, and would go against our main goal of providing easy access to games, to all.
Additionally, maintaining a ratio for F95 games would be a PITA. For any of the top 500 games on here, sure, but what if your niche is abandoned games released 3-5 years ago by indie developers? It would take some time to get anyone leeching, and when that does happen, chances are you'll be competing with our own machines anyways.
We need money to run our service, but requiring that people pay to access our torrents would be counterintuitive.
