Reply to Research / UI windows drastically reduce framerate in Technical Sins Forums

I had read through that one, but I actually don't experience any slowdown at all with infocards or messages. The entire game runs perfectly, except for when one of the larger UI windows is open. It also seems to lag more with windows that are larger and contain more elements; for example, it slows to a slideshow crawl when a research window is open, while the diplomacy window for example slows down a lot less (but still noticeably).

Just a bump for anyone else with this issue - also adding, the framerate drop is still coming up just as frequently after the 1.02 patch.

Oh! I forgot to mention - I actually did just upgrade to the newest Catalyst drivers (8.1) - it made no discernable difference.

The game runs very smoothly, even at high settings - however, when I open any of the larger UI elements (Diplomacy / Pirates window, but particularly the Research window), the framerate slows to an absolute crawl, and the mouse lags along with it. The Research window is the worst by far - while there is noticeable slowdown with the other elements open, it's still not very difficult to click on what's needed. When the Research window is open, however, the framerate slows to something

Thanks - I'm sure I can run GC in the background, I just love being able to tweak resolutions and run things in windows... I'm a multitasker, what can I say... ~SDC~

Quick question - window mode/res? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Just wondering how to switch resolutions or run the game in window mode, if possible. Thanks! ~SDC~
