Problems

Post by rich12545 »

Just got it and several things wrong.

Movement, especially vehicles, is jerky. Kind of a start - stop - start - etc.
Scrolling is not smooth.
Normal view is too far in. I use 1280x1024 (set in options) and it looks like 800x600.
This is what I've noticed from just trying it out.

I have the game and patch installed.

Specs are dual core duo 2.8 gig, geforce 9500gt 512meg, 2 gig ram, 500 gig sata2 hd, winxp pro, should be good enough for everything to run smoothly. But it runs like my computer is maybe almost as good as it needs.

Got CoI a few days ago and it works fine. What's wrong here?

Can someone please help. It's pretty unplayable as is.

From options

Are you running "Fast"?

No, medium.

And a question, why are the scenarios in both the instructional and user made folders?

EDIT: Just tried it on fast and it works better but the jerkiness is still apparent. I'm running both on medium until I get better at it and then will move to fast.

Andrew,  I took another look at CoI.  It's like the normal view in MT is equivalent to the up close view in CoI.  Or pretty close.  There needs to be a way to set it back and see more of the battlefield.

And an annoying thing.  How do you get the unit name to stop blinking when it's chosen?
