Tuning SH3 for a slow Machine

Grayson02sept1980 · 02-25-08, 03:25 AM

my Machine has a 7200rpm harddisk still you're right... it sucks!

The problem is I have 1 GB and it is taking up both slots so I will have to buy the 2GB completly new... not really an upgrade but a replacement meaning extra $$$ to spend...

Will consider it though.

Thanks for all the help folks!

Update/Edit:

Just asked a friend and 2GB are not that expensive... he will order them for me and when I have replaced the 2x512 with the 2x1024 I will tell you if it makes a difference

I've tried to remove this goddamn slow blur effect before, but I didn't get it.

first, TT is useless here. TT can change values of "DropsDuration", "BlurDuration", "Radius" in "CameraEffect" of "obs_periscope" and "periscope" without OLC GUI, but all those functions just do some chage about blur effect, they aren't stopping blur effect. then I used UltraEdit to remove the whole parts of "CameraEffect" in Camera.dat file, it would remove the blur effect successfuly, but both persicopes become unrotatable, even I did touch any values in "RestrictedRotation" function.

in Effect.cfg file, we have
[BlurEffect]
MaxBlurMipMap=4
change this value to 0 will still not stopping blur effect, which just makes blur intensity lower, but, yes, blur effect slow down ur machine as usual.

adding ram shorten the loading time, but i'm pretty much sure it will not help with blur effect problem until u got money to change ur millions years old vedio card

anyone got the solution how to modify this Camera.dat file?
i'm listenning...

btw, I command U-69 with GWX+OLC on Mobility Radeon 9000

...still will try the Ram update nevertheless.. the Chips are not that expensive

I also did some cleaning with a program to make RAM free and also get rid of some ueless programms... now my system is set up 100% optimal .. as good as it can get

I also found that the problem mainly occurs during bad weather effects... if the weather is ok and waves are not that igh it is there... the problem... but not so strong
