Title: Need help with random freezes.
Post by: Templar_Ratigan on November 29, 2011, 01:49:53 pm
Ok so I require some help on this.

To put a long story short, when im playing crpg I get these horrible split second freezes where the game appears to pause, or be loading something, and then it suddenly speeds up and everything is back to normal speeds again.

But then after a period of about 10-60 seconds it might happen again, sometimes it happens continually throughout a round.

Since this last patch it has become unbearable to the point of making crpg an unplayable mess. Now I cannot understand why it is like this, other modules in M&B do not do this, native does not do this.

And I have little to no problems in any other game. My pc is more than powerful enough to run this game, yet im running in dx7 in the poor and weak hope that it might have solved the problem, it has not. It also has nothing to do with ping as I usually run a stable 30+ ping on any EU server.

So if anyone could help me with this and possibly pinpoint the problem and can come up with a solution I would be extremely grateful.

Im posting this here because I believe it needs to be seen as I have heard others experiencing the same problem, to a greater or lesser degree.

Many thanks in advance.

So true.

I just cba to play because of this. Too frustrating.

There are times when my game just hangs up, and plays like 2 frames only, like it's stuck.

Retarded.

Had the same problem. I finally did a full uninstall and then reinstall of mount and blade and crpg. It fixed the problem and I found out it probably had to do with incorrectly installing the patches/hotfixes.

Have you tried lowering Texture Detail in the launch options? I did that and it feels like it happens less often, could be something else though. I have it on half way. Maybe theres just too many different items the game needs to store in memory or something.

I used to get those too. When the launcher first came up (for M&B not cRPG) I went to settings and unclicked "Load Textures on Demand". That decreased the freezes drastically. I used to get them every minute or so, now it's more like every half hour.

Ok so bump, nothing suggested has fixed it, getting really frustrated now.

It seems to be happening every 10 seconds :S.

I get the same problem, oddly enough it happens the most when I'm in an intense duel :\(the worst time for it to happen)

Yeah, im bumping based on the fact that it's still happening.

I would love to know why it is just this module and this module alone. For example PW mod has an enormous amount of information and it doesnt freeze like this one does.

Try setting Flip Queue Size to 0 if you have AMD, or Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames to 0 if you have Nvidia. Fixes freezes and input lag in some games.

Ill give it a try, but it is only this module, it isnt even in native and other, far more demanding games, dont seem to give me any hassle.
