Author Topic: Slow on a great laptop  (Read 646 times)

Okay I am playing Blockland (my favorite game) and I have too much lag at Low/Medium, no jokes, I was on CharNoble's server a few days ago and it lagged alot. Could be the servers fault also, but even in SinglePlayer I load some things and it slows down.

I think a reason could be that it was OpenGL and no option for DirectX/Direct3D and OpenGL is slow. Imagine playing Counter Strike: Condition Zero at 5fps and in OpenGL with a few problems, DirectX*/Direct3D fixes all the problems (it also gets better graphics.)

So please BadSpot try in V20 to get DirectX/Direct3D, thanks.
Also post help below.

P.S. I do have the latest drivers to upgrade to.

If you think this is a good laptop which needs to be overclocked to 2.1-2.3GHz it gets hot at 2.0GHz.

The graphics card is crap, that is why it lags.

So any ideas? What's HyperMemory?

It's not crap. I have that graphics card and it works great. Try clearing out the non .zip files in the addons folder. It worked for me.
