Anti-Lag

Rwearjr · 08-30-17, 06:55 PM

Hi All,
Seeking a bit of help on installing the anti lag mod. I downloaded this last night, and please excuse if my memory is a bit off I am typing this next day from work. As I recall the Readme instruction said "Install into executable directory" I took this to mean "install in same folder as application" or main SH5 folder. This was obviously incorrect as my game would not start. I removed the two files and my game was fine. Obviously I didn't place them in the correct location. Can anyone clarify for a A+ hardware/ software tech that feels kinda dumb right now where in SH5 these two files go?

Ok, so after much searching I have found another thread which said the "executable directory" IS the same folder as folder which SH5 is installed in....If this is so, that is where I placed the Anti-Lag.cfg and the .dll file. As stated my game would not start afterward, got a good feeling I am missing something really simple here.

Still haven't solved this one, really hope THEBERBSTER, or any of you more savvy SUBSIMMERS here at the forum can help me understand what I am doing wrong. I have placed both these files in my Main SH5 folder, and yet again my game will not start. Remove them, and voila' game works fine. I am running SH5 on a Laptop, and the anti-lag wouldn't hurt.

HI Rw
The 2 items do go in your main game folder.
Try setting the Antilag to run as an administrator.
I assume you have already made this setting for your SH5.exe!
Have you checked the settings in Antilag that you want to use as per the instructions?
Did not have any problems running Antilag when I had a 1gb gpu.

Thank you kindly Peter. You are a great resource for all in this community your time and dedication are appreciated. I will try these things tonight. I actually had not attempted changing any of the settings within the anti-lag itself. Simply putting it into the game folder and attempting to boot up. Indeed I do have a 1Gb GPU, and can run the game now with approx 50% of the eye-candy on. I am running SH5 as Admin, and with Win7 compat also. Sounds like you are suggesting the Anti-lag itself is an executable file which can be ran as Admin? Gonna spend some more time tonight on this thing after work.

I am thankful as always to this awesome community, but alas the anti-lag must be conflicting with my machine or something. I have now tried to install it every way I can think of, altering the settings in the config text also. When these files are in my SH5 folder the game simply will not start. Just passing this along if anyone else should have the same issue. Running SH5 on an HP Beats laptop with 1gig GPU.
