JUST WHEN YOU THINK IT WORKS
« on: August 25, 2009, 08:48:46 PM »
After last patch I did some things on based on some tips from players. I was getting better frame rates than I ever have, but then, the creature from Patch 7 hits. Now 30's is as good as I can get sitting in the tower on an empty base.

Lower your max frames, your RAM is very low, update drivers. There you go.

Did you try lowering the shadow texture resolution or turning it off altogether? I think its on by default with the new installation.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.
