You used too many textures (likely from too much variety in objects). You can maybe increase -mt in 21990 a little, but it only can go a little bit.

Got it Just needed to increase the mt a little. everything is good now

I'm not sure what you mean, you've exceeded amount of textures allowed for that level using -mt, if you add more object types, just gets worse and worse and more textures will be messed up.

That's textbook texture overrun. You need to increase the texture allocation for all MP instances of the stage (2-4 player settings are not shared so you need to set them all). Runway solo's original settings have an insufficient texture allocation for multiple special character models or multiple types of aircraft. It's remarkably tight.

Of the known patch issues, these are all memory-allocation related:

• Heavy blackouts in Aztec
  Increase vertex and geometry allocations
  
• Depot experiences MILD blackouts
  Increase vertex and geometry allocations
  
• Weapon placements will explode and go into a forever loop in all levels
  General allocation insufficient for single instance of smoke and/or explosions, causing buffer overrun.
  If NGEE ROM, also decrease object count if near cap, as smoke code doesn't check for object instance cap (bug closed in NGEJ and NGEP).
  Also also, check that you made them indestructible. They should normally be but these things can be overridden.
  
• TINY texture blackouts on computer monitors in Bunker 1
  Increase texture allocation. May also require a larger general allocation if a monitor has no image at all (failure to allocate attached data controller).
  

The issue with larger levels lagging has to do with the density of geometry and number of textures applied. Complicated models with a large number of textures require more time to be processed. Culling and clipping isn't magical; the RSP has to take everything within line of sight (and sometimes things outside it) and determine if it's visible, then pipe that to the RDP before rendering it. The more data being processed the longer that takes.

So, yes, although numerous duplicate objects eat up a marginal amount of physical memory each, rendering them is an entirely different story. Your lag is due to flooding the pipeline, not any issue on Rare's part.

Man is this thing a beauty. I'm pretty proud of this map. I MAGICALLY stumbled across the correct allocation values to allow ZERO texture loss on this lovely beasty. Perhaps this will become a multi favorite? Check it out to see for yourself. Thank you SUB and ZOINK for all the advice as usual . I'm thinking of doing my other PAST maps over again and integrate them into this mod as well. Amazon and Sumerian plus an Aztec mod called MAYAN. Keep an eye out. MultiX

OFFICIAL UPDATE:

Chop Shop is a complete modification of BASEMENT. The level seemed so lifeless and empty I decided to give it a fresh new look. Lifts, diagnostic machines, car segments, and a small office layout hopefully make the level feel completely different. Thanks as always to Subdrag and Zoinkity for founding the editor. Enjoy and please rate!! MultiplayerX

Known issues: Mild polygonal thrashing. Very small and not bad enough to interupt gameplay. Have no idea what causes this. Could be all the scaled garage doors I had to use to lock you into the level .

No but if you want MIST I can blow out an additional binary. You just have to remove one flag Takes minutes to adjust. Let me know Multi

nice well actually i meant lifts as in when they raise your car with a platform in the air to work on it cool level though!!

Mist raised my curiousity by asking if the cars in this would blow up when they get shot at, etc. Looks and feels better that way soooooooo here's a patch and this will be in the final version of the mod. Multi X

SUB you can hold off updating this on VAULT unless you want to. This will be included in the next map release anyway.

FLAG PATCH - Vehicles now destructible:

I woke up today with an ingenious idea for "The Island" in multiplayer. This is the final version I will be undertaking for it. It is COMPLETE from my end

Boardwalk is the FINAL version of The Island in multiplayer. The Island is now OFFICIALLY a completed GoldenEye multiplayer level. I came up with an idea to create an ILLUSION of a "boardwalk" that reaches all the way to The Island from the pier . The level has also been extensively clipped out to make everything "FEEL REAL". I discovered a way to use invisible objects to WALL OUT any place in the level you can walk off or out into the water. The level has been tested for accuracy. Hope this fulfills everyone's multiplayer desires of this area and don't forget to thank Mr.Kane for all floor clipping!
