Rome total war weird lagg

[roykev3]

Hey guys

I just bought Rome total war and installed the Roma Surrectum 2.5 mod. Now that I wanted to play it it laggs really bad on the battlefield. this is because I have a newer graphics card that Rome total war isn't designed for. but how do I fix this so that I can play this game with my new graphics card?

Specs: GT630
i3 540
4 gigs of RAM

Why don't you raise this in the RSII forum?

Edited: Forgot I could move it....

See this thread: here.

Also - what settings are you using in-game?

yea thanks this actually worked still a bit laggy here and there but it's not that bad

ooh well the lagg is back... seems to happen when I'm near trees

it happens at Roma Surrectum 2.5 and the vanilla Rome TW... at the RS launcher I set the vegetation to low and all the other settings to low as well except unti size which is at large. I also have unit shaders on

alright so that link said set the vegetation to medium but I set it to low because I thought it was better.. but now I set it to medium and it runs pretty good right now but whenever I zoom out sometimes I get really big lagg... I played a siege battle (3200 vs 3600) and that went pretty well actually thanks for the help

It's because this game was made for single core processors, it doesn't utilize multi core.... and it depends heavily on CPU more so than graphic card....
i got a $2000 gaming PC and I get like 20 fps with a somewhat large battle with 3-4 full stacks
