Author Topic: While typing frame drops. (Read 568 times)

If I type while flying or in the tower. My fps will drop from about 65-80 to 8. I run graphic sliders to about high and view distance to 3 miles. I turned all of those down to lowest it can go it still does it. Is this a bug or is it my system?

Pc specs,

Win 98
1.5 gig pentium 4
128 megs ram ( I know low but dosen't do it on my brothers pc and he has 128 megs)
Geforce Mx 460 64 megs 8x

I can type in Unreal Tournament 04, Battlefield Veitnam and dosen't do this and both of them require more pc power on high details.

My framerate drops 50% when typing. If I just open the text buffer it drops a little bit but when I'm actually typing it plummets badly.

Another bug is the E6B makes the game studder while flying with it open. Also sometimes when I land I get a CTD.

Same here, glad I'm not alone. The text buffer and keyboard cause 90% of my stutters. If I bring up the text buffer and just hold down the spacebar I get a 90% FR drop.
