Game not running smooth!?!? | Forums

[vinny171983]

Whenever I click on the button for the news update or captains log while@sea, it takes literally 2-3 minutes to open, and if i want to switch to a different tab, it takes just as long. Also, when using compressed time, it runs real bad to where, i only use compressed time up to 1024. WTF? I was running with high graphics, now im using medium, didn't seem like a problem until i patched my game.

Windows XP
Intel C2D E6600 2.4
2 Gigs RAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
2x320 GIG, 7200.1 Seagate w/ perp. recording
ATI 1900 xtx 512 RAM

Whats the problem with this game?

Also got same problem. Seems as if it get longer and longer to open the radio message tab as the patrol goes on. Starts off fine, then gets slower and slower, late on in a patrol causes hang for 4 or 5 minutes before showing the messages.
Mouse cursor doesn't move, game time freezes, and get whatever noise is playing at the time looping. Managed to ALT-Tab to Task Manager, could see game was using 100% CPU during hang.
Can use captains log, and objectives tabs ok, but any attempt to switch to radio messages causes it to hang while it opens.
Same results when using the M key as well as the on screen buttons.

Had the same problem until I installed RamSaver Pro.
Seems flushing/defragging memory periodically did the trick.
Might be worth a try

Many games now are coded by running heavy code generator but devs cant look deep inside the code cause lack of understanding or lack of time to read their proper code (?) ... its the new coding generation .. use objects, matrix of object but cant look inside a simple adress code who is taken and has not been flushed ....
after a new .. do a flush .. simple nope ?
