Help with loading speed.

[Pengo]

Hi

I've done searches on this topic, and read that you turn the graphics down and turn off shadows, ect., to increase turn speed. Here is what is happening with me, does this sound normal?

Once I finish a battle it takes a long time to load back to the campaign map. And by a long time I mean a long time. For some reason too the campaign map scrolls really slowly. When I hit "End Turn" the game freezes for a while before the other faction logos appear.

I've played a bit with this mod today and think some of the ideas behind it are great, the problems above, especially the long loading after a battle, almost kill all fun for me. I've never had these problems with other mods.

I understand its probably just my computer (1.8Ghz 1Gig ram 256Mb Ati Mobility) and that I am probably clutching at straws because this mod runs slower than others and my computer is yesterdays technology (I can't upgrade for a year or two either..... which means when I do ETW will only be 6 months away from stable )but any advice would be appreciated.

If you turn off your Anit-virus program and anything else you have running in the background it should help a bit. Also make sure you are making the most most of your virtual memory ( Check out your page screen)..

Cheers for the reply mate. I use AVG so I'll shut it down. I use Comodo Firewall too so I'll disconnect and switch it off too. I don't know anything about virtual memory or my page screen so I'll google it

hi!!


look, back when i had only one gig of ram memory it was ultra slow, unplayable.

for each hour of play i had to wait the loading for 20 minutes.


but then i expanded my memory configuration up to 4 gb and it was all just fine loads takes half a minute now.


it is said that if you have 2 gb of ram memory it should load perfectly fine.




1gb of ram memory = around 25usd... maybe less depending on the type of pc you have.

more or less as a good dinner or a movie with your girlfriend at the theatre
