It's an Intel dual core, of 5 or 6 years ago, with it I play also the newest total war games with no problem but with the graphic options medium, the dials are white too when the boat ctd. Windows 8 64 bit. I never had problems with sh4 and his mods that s the first time. Maybe must try to low the graphic options?, at first I tough it could be the ruim uniform mod, but also disabling it and putting the compatibility options to win 8, the balao work, but the salmon sargo still to ctd with white dials

Edit when it ctd it was ever in single missions

I wonder if your computer has a setting for the "shared" RAM for the video card, to where you can direct more resource to the video display?... I'll try to get my Win8 laptop to fire up later today (its battery will no longer take a charge), and see what I can find in that. On this Win10 laptop, it shows an Intel HD Graphics 620 with 4035mb of shared RAM, with 4163mb available. I do not see anywhere in this to adjust those figures though. With one of my older Intel laptops (P4??), there was a little applet in Windows to adjust that figure for shared RAM, which helped immensely in it being able to run certain programs.

Yes but not with all games. I should go in the bios for that. BTW My battery too is burned. BTW I used the lag tool of fotrsu and seem to work. Maybe it was that. Also with ruim work. It seems but the sub s dials are ****ed up, all black, in the control room. Damn ahaha seems whenever I close a flooding there s another ready to arrive
I was not using well the fotrsu tools, since my English is not perfect sometime I don't understand the mod s thread completely

The dials doing 12 O'Clock High, or going all white or all black can be a sign of insufficient memory. While the anti-lag can cap the refresh rate and hence the fps, FotRSU also defaults to having the "V-Sync" enabled. Technically, those two should not be used together. The display might be "thrashing" from that, basically eating the video stream bandwidth. Try disabling one or the other of those.

I opened the old battery for the old laptop the other day, thinking that I could get the numbers off of the four cells used in it, and order new cells from a parts store to rebuild the set. However, even the cells are no longer manufactured... sigh. So I am now like Doctor Frankenstein, going about to and fro, looking for "dead" laptops to steal their battery parts from to rebuild my "monster" with (it is already cobbled together with parts from 3 laptops)... - that way, I wouldn't have to give my wife this laptop anytime she walks in the door

It seems that if I disable volumetric fog and other options it work, but the Gato had black dials, so I re enabled them and work like early, with the interior s mod ctd. I guess I must try to work with the options...
