low fps maps
Some of the maps I play have really low fps like "concrete" and "ziggurat" while seemingly more complex maps such as AI assualt (excellent job btw) play just fine even lowering texture, # of AI, #of factories,#of power generators all dont seem to make a difference. sometimes it speeds back up after I pause (catching up I guess) but it gets slow again. I have a 64 mb integrated video card on a 2.6 ghz pentium

Re: low fps maps
This might be the problem. Most on-board video devices don't support openGL, and other rendering protocols. Try finding even a 32MB card. These run around 40USD on ebay. look up the GeForce 4 MX 4000. That's what I have and it seems to do just fine. I had a GeForce 5800 before, and WZ didn't run that much smoother on it. Anything other than on-baord should fix your problem.dant3 5tra5t wrote:...I have a 64 mb integrated video card...
Also, how much RAM are you running? 256 should do for running WZ fine, unless you're in Vista. Is WZ Vista compatible?

Re: low fps maps
try playing on 2 or 4 player maps that should help.

Re: low fps maps
A crappy video card can do that, low RAM doesn't help either.
Stick with 2p maps
Stick with 2p maps
and it ends here.

Re: low fps maps
