    Default Game is slow

    During the main menu and the menu for choosing whether you want campaign, custom, ect, the game runs fine, but once I go into either campaign selection or custom battle selection the game slows down quite a bit, and takes a while to get through that.

    Any help? Also, during some battles, the game crashes completely. Kind of annoying, but I now save at the start of every battle just in case. But it's unfortunate cause earlier I managed to trap my enemy and was killing them very well before it crashed, and when I reloaded the enemy didn't make the same mistake again and I suffered.

    The original Rome Total War runs fine. Barbarian Invasion and Alexander (the bases of this mod and FATW) suffer the same thing. It makes no sense cause the animations for BI and RTW are the exact same on the menus.

    so it is surely not about the mod. maybe reinstalling rome total war and its expansions would help.

    try to not launching the mod via JGSME, that program actually overwrite the RAM memory and can be pressing in system with minimum specifications, better manually make the shortcut.

    It's not just the two mods that suffer from it. Barbarian Invasion and Alexander also suffer.

    So you think that reinstalling should help?

    I tried it with BI and when I tried playing again the same thing happened. If anything it was almost like it got worse. It makes no sense that BI should run slowly when RTW doesn't and they use the same menu screens and animations.

    Hm this problem once happened to me before. I guest you're using another RTW folder. Try to reinstall LOTR mod. If it didn't work. Try to create another RTW without any mods then install LOTR on it

    It doesn't just affect LOTR. This slowness affects Barbarian Invasion, Alexander, and any mods I have installed under them, such as this one and FATW. RTW is the only one that works perfectly. I have reinstalled BI and it did nothing to make anything better. I think it has more to do with the BI and Alexander than it has to do with the mods.

    as I said, this could be related to registry, RTW has the correct registry, and both your BI and Alex are placed in wrong line, or doesn't exist in registry

    I am using it too. It does it no matter if it is on or off. And wouldn't it affect the original RTW?

    ...That's not really helpful...Lol

    It's frustrating cause I love making custom games and it takes forever with it being slow.

    Windows Vista Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001)
    Inspiron 1545
    Bios: Phoenix ROM BIOS PLUS Version 1.10 A02
    Processor: Intel Pentium Dual CPU @ 2.16 GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.2GHz
    Memory: 3034 MB RAM

    Anyways, so I managed to speed it up a bit, but not long after the game starts going, it starts slowing down a bit. I recently had a virus issue but I thought it fixed everything.

    Anyway, any ways to speed up my pc a bit more?
