very slow or freezing battle animations

May 23, 2003 11:08 AM from

Hi I just bought GC the other day, and even with the latest Detonators and the 1.03 patch, I have to keep battle animations turned off because they either play at somewhere around one frame every ten seconds, or it just plain hangs the program... I was hoping somebody knows what the problem is, because I'd really like to be able to have the animations on...

You're not the same thread that I replied to yesterday, are you?

Please run dxdiag and send it to me at [email protected]

I get sluggish battle performance too, but I'm on a dual PPro 200 with a meh! graphics card. If it really gets bad I'll move it over to a dual PIII 1G...

Has this problem been solved? I get this same problem. I am playing on a AMD64 3400+, 1 Gig RAM, Radeon X800 Pro running Windows 2000. I am running version 1.20.

I too have an AMD64, only 3200 though, but find there is no issue with the program running slow.

Could it be that it has a problem with Win 2000.

Generally problems with the battles are due to problems between the sound card and Gal Civ.
