#### We Tested our new experimental renderer for one hour!

UPDATE: Thanks everyone. We ran the test, and got some stats!
Heads up! Until 4:30PM PDT, we're forcing all player level 10 or higher to use our new experimental renderer detailed here: http://www.glitch.com/forum/general/26515/
This will last for about 1 hr, so we can collect some stats. Bug reporting is disabled. Sadly, bugs are still enabled.
Thanks in advance for your willingness to help!
If the new renderer fails for you, please use this url to bypass the test: http://www.glitch.com/game/?SWF_which=DEBUG

- ok... am I the only one that can't get past the main loading screen? tried manual refresh of the page a few times, but nothing so far.
  edit: guess I'm not. I'll just sit and be patient and pine for glitch while they get this worked out :)

- I don't see any change at all.. so I guess I will just continue gardening?

- Is it just me, or does sparkly look more, sparkly?
  So far the only vertical lines I've seen are in Eastern Approach, around the paper tree.

- After I reloaded, I was able to go to two streets. Now I'm stuck at Reticulating Splines. I'm on a Macbook Aire. I thought this won't affect me at all.

- mine's seems to be running faster without being glitchy (no pun intended), and my laptop isn't running as hot. But on occasion things stop loading or moving, except me, If i refresh the page it comes back.
  and now everything i touch moves it ha. It's a b*t*h to get into my storage units.
  was working fine on my home street. tried to go to a street (laccaria quadtrata) and won't load past reticulating splines 100% screen. tried refreshing numerous times. I used my profile page to go back to my home street, tried a new location (madhur hathur) loaded just fine.
  people, places, and things are invisible. Even the comments from the invisible people don't show O.o just their name.

- crops that are watered are not showing as watered. I also got a white screen when moving an SDB.
  Also meant to say that before the white screen everything seemed to be running quicker without as much lag as i usually experience.

- Clicking the little clickable bubbles over animals (the broken heart pet-me bubble, the milk bottle, the grain bubble) ridiculous difficult. Bubbles flicker on-off, leave little white fragments on screen, etc.
  Posted 92 days ago by Raw Toast | Permalink
- Hey, eric, I"ve reloaded twice and am still running this www.glitch.com/game/?SWF_wh.... I haven't been moved over, for some reason.
  Posted 92 days ago by glassy | Permalink
- Also, when i click enter to go through a door in my house ( there is stuff on the floor near the doors) everything shows except for doors.
  Posted 92 days ago by Ishtar | Permalink
- Also seeing a persistent horizontal line artifact in Madhur Hathur. ETA: zoomed out somewhat.
  Posted 92 days ago by Pascale | Permalink
- Apparently you ignored what I previously said about the blue vertical lines.

- Whenever I get super harvest while scooping jellysacs. I can't scoop anymore untill the event is gone from the screen.
  Opening storage boxes sometimes makes the furniture itself stick with the cursor while inside the box, moving it around and making mayham in your home.
  Thought I'd share :)

- Ran into Smuggler on East Spice. Turned down the smuggling quest. He's gone but not forgotten. When I click at the spot where the Smuggler spawns, I get a 'menu' titled Smuggler with no options except the 'Info' tab.

- Another one for 'stuck on reticulating splines', was fine in the streets, but happened when I tried to enter Le Mis

- Refreshed and still getting random popping sounds in the music since the reload.
  Planted herb plots can be rewatered none stop and it doesn't show up plus it's realllly slow!
  Clicked on a pig that was walking to pet it and it stop it's animation but slide across the screen.

- The bypass link still made my rendering bitmap so um yeah im of no help lol
  Posted 92 days ago by max_champlin | Permalink
- When going in and out of decoration mode, the screen goes blank. Clicking the friends list open or closed brings some of the graphics back. Also, I can water the garden over and over again, but the water bar on each plot never fills.

- My character turned invisible and so did the park ranger and a crazy quoin. Then, I switched locations and it got worse! The trees, animals, and part of the background (or foreground?) also vanished.

- The buttons to hear the story at the "Greedy Street Vendor" Street are not rendering, so you can't hear the story at all.

- I too am stuck on Le Miserable and I was having the gardening issues before getting stuck.

- Getting the white screen as well in/out of cultivate
  Posted 92 days ago by BlackWolf | Permalink
- Cannot click on door of my house to enter, must move to it and hit enter. Also the "ghosts" of items in empty SDB's appear the same as full SDB's with the same item, the ghost is not any dimmer than the real item.
  Also, I had to reload my home street twice before I could actually see anything. The background loaded, but my avatar was not there, and neither were the buildings or resources. I attempted the first time to return to the street where I had come from and it loaded the same way.

- I am stuck in the loading screen for Le Mis, refreshed and closed browser, still stuck in the loading screen at the retriculating splines part. Locked out of game it seems for a bit.
  Posted 92 days ago by Ishtar | Permalink
- The bypass URL works fine for me, thanks.

- Walking looks strange now.

- My house disappeared, so I entered the world. Now I'm invisible :D (Fess up, this is prep for Zilloween, right?)
  Posted 92 days ago by Nixified | Permalink
- When I reloaded, everything that was invisible came back. However, after changing screens a few times, things started to vanish again.
  Posted 92 days ago by Corixis | Permalink
- Everything is fine on my end! :D

- My mouse won't turn into a hand in my inventory.. but that's all I could find for now...
  EDIT: Testing out some things.. will keep you guys updated...
  EDIT2:
  - http://www.glitch.com/game/?SWF_which=DEBUG + flash 11.3 & 11.4 - Mouse Pointer: OK

  EDIT3: Hmm.. nvm.. the hand will show up in some cases.. so not sure what's happening now...

- watering gardens does not show as rendered.
  Posted 92 days ago by Mater | Permalink
- Boy, that's....SLOW. I have a really good laptop, less than a year old with NVidia GPU, and this is getting slower than the normal renderer - memory leak?
  The focus is also on the wrong things all the time- piggies in front of a tree should automatically focus on the tree as first clickable item-instead, this randomly focuses on anything-a piggy, the tree, the piggy stick....
  Same with chickens-here I get random focus on the chicken stick and keep picking it up trying to squeeze chickens...
  I can still water my plots as much as I like, the water bar won't change- instead, the green bar that shows growth goes BACKWARDS? Gardening is impossible like that.
  It also seems to respond slower to clicks, I keep running in the same direction as if lagged out (on my home street though).
  And the current blue glow effect is rather painful to look at-I keep thinking I'm seeing double...

- Re-entered my house, apparently using the iMG menu is what makes everything go blank.
  Posted 92 days ago by Nixified | Permalink
- Things seem faster and (on the street) more 3D. Have things in the distance always moved more slowly than things that are closer - keeping proper perspective - or is it just more noticeable now?
  Posted 92 days ago by ArtOfHands RoboGirl | Permalink
- had no problems with loading, moving etc...but...the only way I can explain it is - the soft focus is giving me a lot of trouble, the edges of all things used to be sharp and clear, now they are blurry - and it is painful...also had the problem with items in house attaching to the mouse and being moved and then my screen going completely blank.
  ...gonna take a break for a few and hope the headache goes away.
  (and yes - I see the link to bypass the new renderer)
  ~~Nix - I wasn't using the iMG menu at all

- I can't see myself or any of my SDBs or other things in my tower. The walls and floors are correct but nothing else is there. I can still interact with the elevator but basically I'm invisible.
  ETA: things are normal when I leave my tower.
