compression lag all of a sudden

[vrgadin]

im not sure i understand whats going on. iv been enjoying sh5 for about 3 days now and all has been fine. i loaded up the game last night and i have horrific lag when in time compression, making the game literally unplayable { 1-2 sec pause every other second} to go from trondheim to scapa flow at x1024 takes well over an hour now..... what on earth happened the game was fine yesterday!

This happened to me

Turned out I had pressed screen capture shift+F11 instead of
screen shot Ctrl+F11.

There was about a thousand shreenshots in my sh folder

Me too! I wanted a screenshot and I couldn't get it to stop.

They should implement a fix on this command. I had the same problem

Could be a number of things. Depending upon your system specs, if you were using your computer extensively before launching SH5 you could see that. If your antivirus decided to update or scan you might see that. If your mother tells the cop to kiss her *** before taking the Marlboro out of her mouth you might....oh wait, that's not right.

Seriously though, if it was running good the last couple of days and just started to bog down look for something eating up the memory in your system.

Another thing to check is any MODS you may have installed recently. If you have installed MODS start disabling one by one until you get a smooth game. Or, conversely, disable all the MODS and add back one by one till you get the lag.

Hope this helps a bit,
