Slow Ball flight animation

Post by Frido1207 »

Hi all,

While playing my fictional league & managing all my teams games, it occurs from time to time, that the ball flight animation is veeery slow. When I turn this option off, the game runs with proper speed & without any problems.
I´m asking, because I never noticed that before. I know its not a big deal, but as I am a totally baseball noob, the ball flight animation helps me often to visualize & understand what happens on the field. Ah, btw. I´m using the 1980 ballparks from padresfan (great stuff).
Any suggetions?
thx

The only time I've seen this happen is if another app in the background takes some of the processor for a moment.

What size are the graphics you use for the ball parks? If they are not 1024x768, the ball will move verrrrrry slowly. The current version of PS contains a warning about this if it detects that the graphic is not the right size.

thx for your fast replies:
@ Wrathchild: no other applications are running. That´s why I´m wondering.
@ Bustoff: graphical settings are 1024 x 768. And I didn´t get any warnings. I run v. 1.70e

I have noticed the animation seems to take longer on high pop-ups.  Especially the kind of pop-ups behind home plate.  Unfortunatly, if it is foul, it is always caught, kind of depriving those tense moments while the catcher chases the ball across foul territory.

Be sure the ball park photo is exactly 1024x768
