Title: slow menu
Post by: Forbes500 on February 02, 2008, 05:27:04 pm

For some reason (and only on inferno mod) the menu's are extremely slow, as are the mission briefing screens, once ingame, everything is smooth & fast, but the menu's are super super slow, the cusor is very slow to respond & when the game draws the ships & weps in tactical database or ship selection screens its very very slow.  Was wondering if anyone else encountered this or if anyone knew of a fix.

Thanks

∞ It happens when I run Inferno with all uber-features on and media VPs on my aunt's computer, which is a bit old. ∞

Its not really a big deal, since gameplay is normal speed.  Just odd that only the inferno mod does it, the original FS2, and all other SCP mods work fine.  I'm nearly finished the mod neways, but for the benefit of others who encounter this issue, would be nice to have a fix available, so it doesnt take 20 minutes to set up loadouts & stuff.

Are you running on OpenGL or D3D ? Changing to OpenGL made menu slowdowns dissapear for me.

Depends...he might be running retail FS2 without the media vps and Inferno with the media vps. They slow down everything.

Are you running FS Open or retail? If you're running FSO, do you have the SCP patch for Inferno? If you're running FS Retail, are you using the patch? If you're running retail, get FSO. And switch to OpenGL, D3D is no longer supported.

But yeah. Two words: OpenGL.

That's one word. Three if you break up the acronym.
