Re: Crawling ships?
I have a P3 600Mhtz / 128MB RAM and Windows ME. They work fine. I'm guessing it is the video card. Might look for newer drivers.

Re: Crawling ships?
There is a setting under options in tactical combat that speeds up movement. click on options when in tactical combat and then check fast tactical.

Re: Crawling ships?
Besides the fast combat obtion, turn off the cd music, and turn off the hexs, these are also listed under options. all of these will speed the game up for ya

Re: Crawling ships?
hexes are quite useful
as for fast game, i believe thats actually the reason why my game's aint too slow anymore (cant say, been only playing PBW simul lately)
fast combat is boring, i watch (not play, watch) the combats for a reason you know

Re: Crawling ships?
I have the same problem when playing with sound. Simply turn off all music and sound and ships will move fast again. If you like the sound of weapons during tactical battle - turn it on for awhile then turn it off again.

Re: Crawling ships?
If you are running under XP, try running SE4 in 2000 compatibility mode.
