Visual or Graphic Issue

[Irishfarmer]

Later in my campaign when I was battling larger castles and cities there was a problem with battle scenes. When I was facing the cities or castle in question the screen starts moving in slow motion when it starts showing the detail of the city. (ie buildings, monuments,whatever). If I turn the screen around and fight the battle backwards like I am facing my own Army it goes in normal speed. Can anyone explain this?

Cities and castles cause lag.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Cities and castles add more graphics to the screen, a lot more at larger sizes, so if your not on a top end system you take a performance hit.

Try turning the graphical quality of buildings down.

Okay, how do you turn the quality down. I am not stupid just never had to mess with that stuff before. Thanks

Ehmm...let me think :hmmm:

Oh, that would be like...IN THE OPTIONS MENU

No offence, I don't know how old you are, but if you're not stupid (as such is your claim) you could at least have tried that "Options" button. Then "Video options".

Good luck.

Wow, rather hostile there?
The guy just asked, a polite answer would've been more appropriate.
Its not like he came in here with caps and rudeness, so you don't need to use it either.

Hmm, that wasn't my intention. It's not hostile, it's more like amazement.

I did wish him good luck after all...

The smoke within cities (from chimneys) seems to be the main culprit but you can't specifically turn that off. At least I haven't seen any way to do so. Turning the building detail down should help.

I went into the options and was unable to locate this option. "Turning down to building graphics". Can someone point me in the right direction, please?

You should tick the 'advanced settings' and when you do, you'll see a load of graphics options, the building detail being one of them.
