Subject: Decal is OWNING my computer
My computer is not even a week old. For some reason, my FPS is around 3-10 with decal running. My computer can obviously support this game so i dont know what the problem is. Without decal, i get about 400 fps. I run dual 8600's 512mb each. Im also on vista 32x home basic.


Thanks

Export System Information so we can get a better idea of what's going on, what you say makes no sense

Disable lifetank, try again.
Disable quack, try again.

See if it is decal or a plugin that is destroying your performance. My money is on LT. tongue

I am having the same problems. If I run decal on my laptop, I get terrible framerates, and if ANY plugin is actually on my screen (not just minimized to the bar) - it's unplayable.

I thought it was a heat issue, but if I disable decal immediately, it works fine. It does *not* matter what decal plugins are running.

I can't post an export right now, I will tomorrow evening.

Core2Duo 2.0GHz
2GB DDR2 533
Vista Home Premium 32-bit
GeForce 8400M GS

This system should chew up AC/Decal. My desktop is far worse and runs it like a champ.

Is there a problem with decal and Vista? Or processor affinity in dual cores?

While not an expert, I am running Vista 64x, with a Dual Core processor and have had no problems on my desktop machine.
