Version 4.1.0.40 requires (for me) Avast exception

Post by Rosseau »

In case anyone else has issues and uses Avast.

Also, the Steam version is still crazy laggy, as to be unplayable. Even the main menu items takes a long time to register a selection.

Not a problem, as I have working Matrix copy installed!

Thanks

Yes, Avast did trigger a warning for the "TheOperationalArtofWar4-UpdateComp-v4.1.0.40.exe" file. It sent it to their labs to be analysed, something which sometimes takes hours to return a false positive. So I took the chance and disabled it temporarily while installing.

In Steam, it might help if you disable the Steam Overlay for the game, in Steam under Manage > Properties. I don't think the Steam Overlay works for the game anyway and it might cause lag.

Thanks Shadrach, that was a good suggestion. Do you know my friends Meshach and Abednego? [;)]

Anyway, lag is persistent. About 20 seconds just to quit the game, so glad am not dependent on Steam for this one.

Hey,
I just tried the Steam version and I can't say I noticed any lag at all.
It would need deeper investigation on your system, but since you have no issue with the Matrix release let's not [;)]

You mean these guys?
