hi, ummm...it seems that when i bought this game (i was so excited) i thought it was gonna run smoothly, even if i had to put it on Low graphics and everything. The Specs even say that i could play it.
I dnt kno if its my computer, but the game lags sooo badly, its going about 3-5 FPS.
My CPU is a AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+, 2.01 GHz
I also have bout 1.75 RAM
And my Video Card is a NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT
And if that wasnt enough.....sometimes the games sound itself would kinda lag to. I mean....u can hear it....but it kinda glitches over and over.
Please help, and THNX!!
I have the exact same problem.... 3 frames a second would be great... im getting like 0.5.
Choppy, crappy sound
CPU AMD 64 X2 4200+
2 Gb ram
NVIDIA 260 gtx 896 MB.
THIS SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN THIS GAME!
Can anyone help?
To both of you...
You might want to try running the game with the /nosound option. How to do that is described here: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/348389
If this helps, could you please report it in this thread: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/348232 That way we can keep the same issue in one thread and maybe get the dev's attention a bit better.
your computer is really slow; the biggest clinch-pins are you single-core CPU, and entry-level GPU. i suggest you start saving up your pennies for a new computer; shop around and building it yourself and you'll get a killer setup for under $700.
thnx for the suggestion, but wat do u mean by "entry-level GPU"
the cheap stuff that's not really expected to play games on.
it was an okay card when it came out, however that was a few years ago (and Demigod is brand-spanking-new).
The game should be fine on that GPU - won't be great but I don't think should cause the lag you are experiencing
I suspect like a lot of us the issue is a problem with the sound side of things which is causing the game to lag.
I have an AMD 3200+, 8800GT, 2GB ram. Running with the /nosound switch I get +40fps, without it I am lucky if I squeeze 20fps.
Try it and if it works then post to http://forums.demigodthegame.com/348232
Tals
thanks alote bullet and talsworthy. Since i dnt have the BUCKS ($$$) to actually buy a computer right NOW....i'll go wit talsworthy idea.
But in bout 6 months, i should be able to either upgrade my pc, or buy a totally new one. Dnt kno which exactly, but when that time comes, i'll choose.
If any suggestions, i'm happy to hear them
I have experienced the full aspects of the Nosound Performance Issue, with framerates being slow and sound being choppy whereas I had a whole new generation Geforce Card (GTX 260), no problem with any other game on Full Details, and 4GB RAM. I have found a solution to this issue that I haven't seen reported in the Technical Support forum. This solution has been found by some users and reported in a "Supreme Commander" forum section. The user reported a bad link though, whereas I will supply here the right link. This is a problem linked to corrupted DirectX library. A file ( d3dx9_36.dll ) may be downloaded here : http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?d3dx9_36 It needs to be installed in windows/system32. This file has same size and about same date that the original file I had there, except that the date I had was 4:04 PM and this one is 3:04 PM. After copying & pasting this file there, I experience absolutely no issue. Sound is smooth, game becomes smooth like hell. Please try this if you are experiencing problems. And report here if this works
