RE: Mouse click problem

Post by Indy68 »

This problem is being discussed already. Not only mouse clicks, but the whole GUI is very slow in large resolutions. I have spent hours studying the manual and playing the tutorial, but playing Road to Minsk in now so frustrating because of slow GUI that I decided to stop playing this game until this is fixed. To help developers in fixing this show stopper I repeat what I already wrote in the other thread:
ORIGINAL: Indy68

I have found that mouseclick -problem disappears when playing in the default window size. In full screen window (1920x1200) the game is sluggish, almost unplayable. Using slow click technique as described above helps, but interestingly it doesn't help to move the mouse over hex and wait a few seconds and then fast click. I guess the GUI thread is somehow busy (maybe not in CPU, but in GPU) , even though nothing seems to be updated in the screen (maybe the screen is still repainted too frequently, causing slugginesh)

Also, when click doesn't cause the expected action, the mouse click sound is still heard. This indicates that the actual click is noticed by the application, but if GUI is busy doing something it forgets to do the actual action.

GUI slugginesh affects everything including menu response time, scrolling, etc. I highlighted the weird thing because no change/animation is visible in the game screen but even menu is still slow. Setting graphics to low quality and sounds off doesn't help at all. Only small window size helps.

This is the single most frustrating problem, and so far the only technical issue I have encountered.

Btw, I have updated video driver.

Sir Knight!

It actually gives me time to the manual until its all fixed , there seems to be severe problems on many systems BUT I am sure it will get fixed:)

Until then the front is closed!
