what kind of computer do i need to run fire in the east?

Post by Iamstrategygame »

I am trying to play fire in the east. By the way my cpu is I7-7700k was the fastest gaming cpu and gtx 1080 duel. I have 32 gigabyte of ram. Even with all this power on this 7 thousand dollar computer fire in the east brings my computer to its knees. Please help me thank you!

Sometimes it is not the fault of the machine. How does this scenario make your machine slow?

If duct tape doesn't fix it then you are not using enough duct tape.

Can you be more explicit? What are the symptoms you are having?

FitE has no AI. And if you do run a computer side five minutes for as large as the scenario is would be nothing. Scrolling with the big maps is problematic. Using the arrow keys can help. Clicking the minimap helps. It takes forever for the jump map to load so maybe not such a good alternative. If you zoom out and know what unit to select then select it and then click on it in the unit panel in the upper right and you will jump to that unit. But yeah, sluggish scrolling on the huge maps. It isn't your computer.

FITE is one of the bigger scenarios and it's got a lot to do, to do what it does. If you're running WIN10, which I suspect is the case, you could try running it in compatibility mode for WIN7. It might run a little faster that way. There's a fix for this, I just don't remember what it is. Lemme think about it

Mouse scrolling is awful, yes, but the arrow keys ameliorates the problem somewhat.
