Hi peoples of total war
I'm starting to wonder whats wrong with my PC after reading several posts about other people maxing settings on ME2TW and having decent frame rates with only shadows turned off.
My problem is that I'm playing with most options on low - medium and still getting lock ups, slowdowns and lag - especially during seiges. So can anyone explain why my computer doesn't like running this game? here's my specs and settings.
AMD 64 4000, 2 GIG RAM, ATI X1800XT 512 MB graphics 19" monitor.
The settings im running the game on...
Resolution - 1100 something (tried running at 1280 and it just couldnt handle it causing it to really slow down - yet some people run it at 1600 and don't have a prob)
AA X 4
AF - Trilinear
Effects detail - Low
Unit detail - highest
Vegetation detail - highest
Texture detail - high/highest
shadows - none
grass detail - low
building detail - low
V-sync off
Bloom off
reflections on
Army/unit size - large not huge.
When using Fraps...
I get between 12 - 25 during a seige, between 20 - 60 during open battle (no seige equipment) and between 15 - 25 during open battle with seige equipment.
I even tried shader 1 instead of shader 2 and that still gave me problems in a seige. Anyone have any idea why I am getting problems?
