Avast AV Gamer mode
Not so much a bug report as a heads up.
Not so much a bug report as a heads up.
I've used Avast as my AV for over a decade and it's saved my system from some right nasty viruses over the years, but I haven't kept the program up to date for about 18 months.
Today I updated it and found a "Gamer Mode" has been added, it's meant to make online gaming easier and use less resources.
It causes a couple of issues with Xsyon however, trying to log out can take ages, and don't die unless you are within 10 meters of your totem, as it wont warp you out and go to the loading screen, instead you are left where you died but in ghost form, that is until the game goes unresponsive and crashes.
Thankfully it's an add on that can be uninstalled from within Avast, and once it's gone Xsyon works as normal again.
