Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - billk1 - 09-13-2008 I just installed a new graphics card,a Visontek Radeon 2400 PCI with 256mb of ram. Now when I play any campaign series game it moves at a snail pace,even checking on Fast computer/human player it is slow. Any ideas as to what I can do to speed it up,I have the latest drivers also. I have tried all resolutions,get the same affect. Dell 530s Dual Core processor 2.4 ghz 2GB ram 500GB HD RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - von Manstein - 09-13-2008 How fast system is loading. In the same time as earlier or maybe little slower. Did you tried to reinstall the game? RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - billk1 - 09-14-2008 Load times are the same,no problem. I haven't tried reinstalling was trying to avoid doing that since I have downloaded a lot of user made scenarios. If I play it in 2D mode it is a little faster but nothing like it was prior to the new graphics card installation. Even then when a unit fires or is fired on the shots move in slow motion. RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - billk1 - 09-14-2008 Problem solved. There not being anyway to set the resolution in the game itself, I realized it runs in the mode your desktop is set at. Mine was at 1400x1050. I changed it to 1024x768 and it works great now. RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - junk2drive - 09-14-2008 Since you have a huge hdd, copy your scenario folder to somewhere else before you uninstall and reinstall then copy and paste the scenarios over the new install. RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - billk1 - 09-14-2008 Thanks junk2drive, I found my problem but your advice will come in handy if I'm ever faced with reinstalling a game and keeping the scenarios again.

Way to go Bill! Glad you got your graphics problem resolved. Now you can see my German forces in "stunning" 3-D mode! :whis: I'll look for you on the Eastern Front soon... RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - billk1 - 09-14-2008 Don't look to hard,just wait until I come up and tap you on your shoulder. RE: Problem running JTCS with new graphics card - Huib Versloot - 09-14-2008 I read all this, but on my machines JTCS runs fine on any resolutions: 1280 x 1024 on my PC and 1680x1050 on my Dell laptop. Having to downgrade your resolution to 1024x768 hardly seems a solution to me. Are you sure you have the latest drivers for your card? I know on some machines you have to set your colors 16 bit, but that's also not something I have to do on my machines to have it run smoothly. |
