Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) Technical Problems Running choppy as hell ;( DirectX info inside

heh.

ironically, the beyond divinity demo, it still has the same stuttering problems an lag..

Im this close to putting 98 on here.. XP Pro is just a hog when it comes to resources, and i guess its bein mostly used by the os itself.


Oh, for the hell of it, i ran DD.. and alt tabed out.. and looked at my taskmgr(never did this) but div.exe is using 161megs! and my CPU is at 100% im alomst postive this is why its stuttering, cuz the processor is at its max.. now i need to figure out whats wrong.

Could direct 9.0b be the prob? I dont think i have a direct 9 card.. i could try 8

My CPU goes to 100% playing Divinity, which was using 130MB when I just checked.

A couple people have had problems with DirectX 9, though that was with crashing, not performance, that I recall. Beyond Divinity was ported to v9, so I think problems with the demo imply a DirectX conflict is not the issue with Divinity.

Well..

I think i got a tinybit of performance boost.. i went ahead and installed 2000.

But, it still stutters not as often.. but it still lags when im walking through lots of trees.

there aren't any inside the d- wiait.
