MechWarrior001 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Hey, new here. I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 and playing SWGB 1.1 under Wine. However, I get low performance. The main menu lags a bit, and 1024*768-1280*1024 is unbearable practically. I'm using a Nvidia 7800GS (AGP 8x) and 384MB of SDRAM. My CPU is a AMD Athlon (462 Socket) at 1.2gHz. Anyone know of any fixes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigundr Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I would say to upgrade your computer, but SWBG isn't a demanding game, so the problem eludes me. It might also be a problem due to to the low memory, as it could clog up the game along with the OS that's running. What is the native resolution of your video card, as you MIGHT be bottlenecking it, but that's a guess. An Ubuntu user might be of more assistance, though.

MechWarrior001 Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 My monitor is a samsung 932B (Running DVI-Single) at 1280*1024*32@60Hz. I believe the native resolution is 1280*1024, but I've seen it go far higher when I connected it my living room TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no1 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Well lets not forget the way SWGB is programmed means it constantly tries to use 100% of the processor running it when in fullscreen mode. I know Wine isnt perfect either - maybe thats whats causing the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
