spacekdet Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem ( also contacted f0dder about it .. no responce yet about specifics) when I run the game without the patch and without directdraw it runs fast of course .. so I run the game with the f0dder patch BTW im talking about CE and the sound runs at normal speed but the game runs super super slow like 1 frame every 10 or so seconds. I can get up to the first clickable screen (after ages of waiting) but the I cant run the game to see what speed it runs at because everything is to lagged I cant position the mouse in the right place to play the game. Config:PIII 667Ge-force 2 MX/ MX 400160 meg SDramXP Professional Any Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Maby the f0dder's loader you got was corrupted. Are you using the one that comes with xcomutil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacekdet Posted September 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 I've downloaded it off f0dders site and off this site and both do the same .. so I doubt that they are corrupt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j'ordos Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Is your comp good enough for win XP? I'm specifically thinking about the amount of RAM you have, which is rather low. Maybe that's what's causing the slow speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[Micah]] Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Trying downloads from both this site and f0dder's site was a good idea, because they are actually still two different versions, as I've been too lazy to tidy things up. My suggestion at this point would be to manually disable directdraw acceleration and run the game without f0dder's patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacekdet Posted September 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Xp runs fine on my comp Yeah I've tried both patchs and the ones that were with the downloads of CE UFO and TFTD. I downloaded TFTD last night and it does the same thing ... I always thought that runing a very low graphics game wouldnt have any effect considering I can run high graphics intensive games like morrowind on my comp fine .... But anyway in not gonna run it on this comp cos using moslo or a slowdown util just lags the game way to much for any enjoyment by me so I guess I just have to wait till I get this cast off my leg and do something with my 486 and try CE on that .. I've tried DOS ver. on it but alas ... speed ( On a 486 I hear you say .. yes I know it sux :crying: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
