bigbadjedi Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Whenever I load a quicksave, the frame rate drops significantly. Usually, it comes back to normal in 2-3 seconds, but sometimes it doesn't. If that happens, no amout of reloading the save again will make it come back to normal. Not even if I reboot. However, if I exit the current game, start a new game, and load my save from there, the framerate will be normal again... at least until the next "bad" quicksave. Moreover, realoading a "bad" save again may decrease the framerate even more. I've gone from 60fps to 20fps at the same exact location. The problem seems to occur in clusters, i.e. once it starts, it's likely to persist for the level. And also seems to occur at some levels more than the others. It would always happen on Atrus and Cairn, but never on Yavin. I'm running JKII on a Celeron 1ghz, 384mb SDRAM, Geforce3, Win98, Nvidia 29.42 drivers. I tired other driver versions but the problem persists. Game settings are 1024x768x32, 3x AA, all quality options on highest, except Simple shadows. Any ideas?

Regs Posted July 30, 2002 Share Posted July 30, 2002 The good news is you aren't alone and someone else has the same problem. The bad news is I don't know how to fix it. If I start a new game and then load I don't have the framerate drop, just like you described. I have a Geforce 3 on a Athlon XP 1800+ with 512 of DDR. I'm nuts for framerate and any drop drives me insane. So this is pretty much ruining my gamin experience :-p I wish I knew how to help, I hope you find an answer.
