Re: Warp Speed
Hello all.
I'v got an interesting tidbit for this discussion.
Ages ago I reported on this forum that my copy of SE IV will run dramatically faster if I first start SPW@W (Steel Panthers World at War), then exit SPW@W.
This phenomenum extends to all aspects of the game.
IE inital load time on a cold start is approximately 15 seconds
initial load time if SPW@W started first is 5 seconds
Time to process the 19 computer players turns goes from approximately 1 Minuite to less than 30 seconds.
The ships just teleport across the map, etc....
My system is a Celeron 660 MHz, with 128 Meg of RAM.
I was attributing the increase in performance to some portion of SPW@W program manager remaining resident, or something like that.
