You have posted this on several threads now.
I have a similar computer but my video card is an ATI. Version 1.3 runs about the same as version 1.2 on it. ...........when all else fails, I reinstall. |

I just did a quick mission from a fresh install and got the same result. I was playing the battle of midway and I was forcing the ships to shoot at me however, so the fact an entire fleet was trying to kill me might have something to do with it.

I may be off on this one, but while experimenting to find the problem with my Traffic Reduction Mod with 1.3, I noticed that in general, (campaign only I guess) more CPU time is being eaten by what I can only guess is the AI, since it has been upgraded quite a bit. That would be my guess. Smarter AI does tend to always slow down a game.

I've had a drop in FPS too. From 15-25 ingame with 1.02 to a steady 6 FPS with 1.03, all special effects off and no other ship in sight.
P4 2.8HT XP fully updated 2 GB RAM 256 MB compliant card with latest drivers. |

Very important:
The drop of FPS is a known behaviour of SH4 3D engine. It happends because the rendering of the water is too complex for the video card and, periodically (like every 20-30 frames), it runs out of memory buffers. The buffers are then flushed and it starts with a clean cache. The only solution is to lower the quality options that affect the rendering of the water. PS: this never happends on very powerful video cards because they can handle the water even at the greatest quality.
