Truk (Stay away from in TMO 2.0)

[Sandman_28054]

Having played this game several times, I should know by now not to mess around Truk from 1943 on.

Here is a warning.

Do not approach Truk from about June 1943 through the rest of the game.

Frame rates drop really, really low.

Don't know if this is a bug or what, but it is still happening.

This is a known issue. I believe Ducimus posted that he found out what the problem was, but I don't know that it's been fixed.

I didn't find the post from Ducimus doing a quick search, but I know I've seen it. It seems to be only in TMO, so if you throw RSRD on top of TMO, the issue goes away.

Sigh. Does noone read the readme's ever? :nope: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z15/subject_rod/smilies/biggrin3.gif

But the not-really-released-beta-patch fixes the lagging. Look here:

I managed to take some snapshots of what's really going on at Truk :smug:

Lovely sight, isn't it? :rock:

I read those before.

And BTW, I read those before I posted this question.

I need to stop calling it a "beta patch" and just acknowledge that its the only patch TMO is getting for awhile, and link it on the mods first post.

But yes, it fixes the truck lag as illustrated by that picture. There should be a readme in the documentation directory of above linked patch.

Maybe we should get that patch up on SHMF too...:03:

I have had no problems at Truk. But my game lags and crashes the rest of the time because I have an old XP.
