They released smaller client that has compressed textures.

I downloaded it and i think it works better than the normal client.

Will the bot support the lite client?

I don't know cause my bot wont update even on normal client.

Edit:
I think the only thing that has changed are compressed images and sounds so it will take less resources from computer.

Fix:
Managed to get bot working and its farming eggs now on the lite client.

Is there a dramatic difference in quality that you can see/hear? If not, I may just switch to the lite version.

I think the quality of objects are sharper now and I think it looks better that way. It won't give huge improvements compared to normal client but i think its noticable.

Can't say anything about sound cause i haven't ever used those.

This is exiting.

Can anyone give numbers on how much less resources it takes while running?

dont get that muche excited, when i hear texture are compressed i belive they made install smaller and game folder smaller but u almost certainly have to decompress all of it on live when using in game, and because of that imho download and rom folder will be smaller but the game itself should take more resource rather than less, plz some who have it confirm that while running two same configured windows one by one and look how are they going

Fist after a couple of hours using the slim client i can say, that nearly the same amount of RAM is used on my machine, but I saw some things become better during normal botting: the CPU usage decrease from 28-37% to 22-34%, also the FPS seems to increase by 5-8 FPS.
But still the usage of some Addons will decrease your speed an waste some ressorces.
If you have a slim Addon folder you have high speed RoM (-Bot) XD

Additional: Yesterday we had some server lags. But first tests in Instances the Slim client to be "FPS shit" like the full client... Mybe its caused by server or the slim client has the same problems.

Can someone else give some more opinions?

I think my memory usage increased actually. Logged in, and allready up to 500mb of ram...Usually its around 300mb until i load zones. FPS seems to have increased though, slightly smoother.
