here are my computer specs
3.0 ghz intel pentium 4 processer with 800 mhz front side bus
1 gigabyte of DDR 2100 ram
ti 4200 vid card.
intel mobo, which is an 865 PERL so the system is made to work overclocking etc wasnt in mind when i built it..
heres what hoi 2 will do
i will ramp up my speed to the fastest setting whatever its called "extremely fast" or whatever.
well it doesnt speed up much past normal speed....
thats only way for me to tell you that the computer is dying by Hoi 2
in Hoi 1 i could do this all day long on extremely fast setting and the computer wouldnt slow down at all no matter how far into the game i was.
from 1936 till 1945 is when i usually would stop playing and i never saw any kind of "lag"
NOW Hoi 2 uses 99% of my cpu....recent games like world of warcraft, warhammer 40k dawn of war, homeworld 2, HOi 1. and all of these games DO NOT LAG my computer.
this is amazing how the difference between hoi 1 and hoi 2 means my games are played at a little faster than normal speed.
could anyone tell me whats doing this?
PS. i already tried using "counters" for units and that made NO difference.
so what has paradox changed in the engine to make it so bad on my high end machine?
thanks, any help is appreciated.
PPS. oh yea and the screen is difficult to move across the map to see things also, it lags up and jitters around slowly.
very annoying stuff
