Sluggish Gameplay

[Neon Deon]

I installed the latest drivers no problem. I see a bunch of options pertaining to my video ect. I dont see anything about Fast Write or 4x.

The drivers are installed sucessfully.

Anti-Aliasing
Anisotropic Filtering

Those are set to let the application decide.

Edit - Game runs alot smoother now, dont think its going to get any further. Thanks.

ATI must have hidden smartgart.

No matter. If it is running good, then no use in reducing card settings.

Anyways looks like the driver cleaner did its job.

BTW

Here are some tweaks if you have 1 gig or more of ram.

FPS tweaks for 152.

Set windows to run system ram first(use only if you have 1 gig or more of ram).

Strart/run/ type in: regedit
Find it under 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/SessionManager/MemoryManagement/
Change Disable paging executive from 0 to 1
Highlight right click on it and select modify to change the value.

Adjust the CIV ini file.

AllowScreenShots = 0
SyncInput = 1
D3D9Query = 1
LoggingEnabled = 1
; Disable caching of file system (may slow initialization)
DisableFileCaching = 1

; Disable caching of xml and file system (may slow initialization)
DisableCaching = 1

; Set to 1 to page units out when non-visible
DynamicUnitPaging = 0
; Set max frame rate clamp (0 means none)
SetMaxFrameRate = 30

; Set to 1 for dynamic animation paging
DynamicAnimPaging = 0

Set a fixed 2000/2000 page file to partition or disk separate from the OS and run the game alone with no other programs running.

Start/run

Type in:

msconfig

Disable all on startup tab.

Under services tab check the box for hide all MS services,disable the rest, apply, and reboot.

Change it to 2000/2000 initial and maximum.
