I don't have Ad-Aware. Do you think maybe AVG Anti-virus is the culprit?

Nope, uninstalled but issue remains. The problem is definitely with the information update when mousing over something.

Yes, this is my definite impression too.
And the game nearly comes to a stop when turning on the trade route overlay.

Same here Briny, locks up for a little bit when you hit the trade button too.

This issue is my top priority right now.  My hypothesis is that on certain machines the data-refresh routine is being triggered more frequently than normal.  I'm working on a way to short circuit this and avoid this data-refresh except when absolutely necessary.

Perhaps when it's ready we can make a beta copy of the update available to those on this thread who are having the lag problems so that we can test the fix.

Thanks Eric, count me in to help test.

Absolutely, I'll help test. Thanks Eric!

Sounds good - I'll test it too.

I would love to help as I am still getting off and on choppy play.  Thanks guys!

I'd be happy to test!

Has anyone tried re-installing? Just want to make sure before I try.

As posted in the Development Forum - I also get this problem quite severely and this is even with Simple Economy. This problem for me is cumulative. I can click on units and move them but afte I have moved 2 or 3 units the game siezes up. If I save the game and load it again then I can move several more units and so on...

I am running XP Pro on a Toshiba Laptop with 2GB Memory - laptop is about a year old. Have postd the DXDIAG on the Dev Forum.

Odd question, but in the interrest of solving this. Do you guys with the issues have a wireless mouse?

Kind regards,

Rasmus

yes.

Those of you in the public forum who are experiencing this issue and would like to help us out, I have a beta build I'd like to share with you in exchange for your feedback on whether it helps out with this problem. This would involve signing our beta test NDA and joining the COG: EE beta team, though you're not obligated to do any testing beyond helping us with feedback on beta builds regarding this one issue. If you're interested, please e-mail me at erikr@matrixgames.com. Thanks.

Thanks Erik, I'm willing to help with this. Email sent.

I'll test it for you too.
I'll send you an email as soon as as Yahoo Mail is working again... sigh [8|]

Thanks, those who applied should receive an e-mail from Karlis today with a NDA. As soon as we receive that back, we'll give you access to the beta forum and the latest beta build to see if it improves the lag issue for you.

Thanks for the support Erik!

Anyone get in yet? I faxed mine back around noon, no beta forum yet though.

I discovered that having the visual themes disabled causes lag on the Trade and Military screens. I can now play CoG EE on my main computer in all its Glory [:)]
