Uh oh. What's going on?

When I play the game, sometimes I use time compression while still in 3D rendering mode (i.e. I am on the conning tower and I go to 1024x TC).

When the weather changes in those instances, my graphics take a momentary "hit." For instance, I go from clear skies to stormy and overcast: things get blocky while the graphics have to load themselves. However, this momentary graphic "lapse" only lasts for split second, and then all is well when the graphics are fully loaded.

Now using my example, it is possible that Dowly and Syxx_Killer's systems might have gotten overheated after extended play. If so, your system's loading capabilities might be a little slower... Thereby making your graphics load slowly... i.e. overheated computers give you temporary graphic anomolies.

I'm no computer whiz (obviously... :rotfl: ), but maybe this is it?
