Title: Changing Resolutions
Post by: batch on July 31, 2009, 03:07:51 PM

Skuzzard if you run out of video memory does the game automatically set you back to a lower resolution to free some of it up?

now an explanation for the question.... if I watch my video memory via ctrl+I   I can see as Im gettin within 90% of total and rising...... as I continue playing all of a sudden everything will get real grainy as if I switched to a lower resolution..... I then glance back up at my vid memory and Im closer to 70% of total and holding

not that it matters much either way.... it is what it is.......... just curiosity really

The game will switch modes to keep from using all video RAM.  Not an ideal situation.  It would be better to disable other features than to run knowing the game is running out of video RAM.
