OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Post-patch: Game very sluggish

More info:

The game isn't using more CPU (it's actually 0-6% while idle) or RAM (120K mem usage according to task manager while in a PBP game). It's just... slow. Painfully slow.

I also tried disabling my AV (which is AVG Free) and it made no improvement at all.

Other games are still playing fine on the system. (Which is good, because had anything gone wrong with my fiancée's WoW time last night, she woulda yelled at me).

When it comes down to it, I can live with the interface slowness. But the PBP slowness, as mentioned, makes the game completely unplayable for me.

I don't understand why the game has slowed down visually in all manners, but seems absolutely fine when it comes to sim speed. While testing earlier, it still only took about a minute to simulate a full season (with no minors, of course).

I'm at a loss.
