Installation problems and Vsync Question
 

Hey, I am having some SH3 problems with tearing. I recently installed a Nvidia 7600 GT card (very fast) and had excellent frame rates, no tearing to be heard of. Then Sh3 was CTDing on me whenever I tried to enter a career, so I uninstalled it. I did something very stupid before I uninstalled the game, which was uninstall GWX shortcuts. So my uninstall was pretty wierd, with lots of crazy messages poping up. I reinstalled, but for some reason setup wouldnt complete after it copied over the game files, just got stuck on "computing system requirements" which I believe proceeds Game shadow installation. So setup could not complete, but the game seems to work properly, wierd though.

Now, I am getting tons of tearing. In Nvidia control panel I force vsync on w/ triple buffering, which does nothing. All my other settings seem to be implemented, antialiasing and everything seems to work good. Does SH3 not support triple buffering? I have enabled synchronization in game, which seems to have double buffering instead of triple, so my frame rate goes straight to hell if it drops below 60; it goes straight to 30, which I don't like at all. (I didn't pay all this cash just to have my video card capped at 30 frames did I? :stare:) Before the crappy uninstall mentioned above I guess vsync wasn't on either now that I think about it since my frames would be extremely high, but I wasn't getting all this tearing. Don't know what to do, any help will be appreciated. Sorry for the long post.
Regards,

Oh snap!
 

Alright I was screwing around with the game, vsync will not enable unless its in game, tried different drivers and everything. I think the problem lies with the uncomplete installation. Everything worked very well up untill then. So I need to know, how do I completely remove the game from my system? To the point were it thinks its never seen it before? Because Install Shield goes all screwy when I try to install and uninstall it, so I have to do it manually, and its still screwed up. Any suggestions?

Nerver mind, fixed it
 

Got it fixed, downloaded revo uninstaller, complete uninstall, works great now.

NICE ...

Way to stick it out mate and weather that storm ... :up:
