Hi there, I was wondering if you could assist me with a problem that has recently developed for me.
Firstly, PC Specs:
32-Bit Home Premium Vista
Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.4GHz
2Gb of RAM
NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS
360Gb Hard Drive (130Gb Free)
I bought Unreal Tournament 3 right on the EU release date in November '08 and it ran absolutely fine on my system with maximum graphics. Framerates were not exceptional, but as long as it's above 30, I call that more than acceptable. Typically I was around 40-50FPS and at about 30 in a heated vehicle battle - this is more than good enough.
However, just yesterday I activated my game on Steam and applied the Titan 2.0 addon pack and started playing again. At seemingly random intervals I get massive lags of up to 15 seconds long before the game continues to load the next frames of the game.
As I say, this seems completely random, although it does seem to occur with massive intensity in the following situations:
- Entering a Vehicle from the front.
- Turning around very quickly/panning my view.
- Getting hit by so much damage that the screen fully goes red.
In each of these cases, I get a pause of up to 15 seconds before the next frame is loaded.
Also, the game continues even while I am frozen, leading to many deaths by Novice bots simply because I can't move/see.
However, this seems to not happen at all on small Deathmatch maps after about 3 to 4 minutes of gameplay.
As I said before, this only started happening since I installed the Steam version and the 2.0 addon pack.
Anyone got any ideas as to what might be causing this?
Thanks in advance.
