Hi, i just downloaded this mod, and i must say , it's awesome. Really i think it's better than the original game. Anyway, i have some kind of problem with it, whenever i select a car, or any unit, the game slows down a little bit, it's not a big deal , but it's anoying. My specs are :
amd dual core x2
ram 2gb 667
nvidia zotac 9500gt

any ideas :D ?

Thanks.

I don't think it is related to the LA mod. Did you already try other mods?

That's a common problem. My computer is even better that yours and my game lags slightly when a unit is selected. The only thing in the LA mod I can think of that could be causing this is that the daylight gradient was changed in 1.7. Try another mod (or play with the original units) and see if you get the same problem and report back here.

Don't be rude.

And i think this can be because of the massive models LA mod uses, and the AMD dual core processors. Might try these two steps :

Install this .. http://www.techspot....-optimizer.html

And do this : .. http://articles.tech...11-6168870.html

Ok, I tryed setting the procesor's affinity, so it only uses 1 core, But it was the same, Then I tryed Florian_Hamburg_Mod_V1_0 and it worked fine, it's weird, the game slows down when i select units only, if i deselect that unit it runs smoothly again.

Aii, too bad :(

I had the same problem too, untill i just bought a new computer with Intel processor. i had the same Dual Core too :(

To me it seems like the game slows down when there is not enough memory or cpu to load the selected unit's models and scripts.. i always got this problem when selecting two cops for example getting cones or fire equipment.

wow not enought memory or cpu, are you suggesting that this mod needs more memory and cpu than gta iv? wich runs fine by the way. I tryed a few other mods and they work fine.

I find it hard to believe my Core 2 Quad Q9300 overclocked to 3.4 GHz, 4 GB of RAM, and an overclocked GTX 260 is having problems playing the game.

Sorry, my bad :) But AMD Processors ( some dual cores ) do have issues with multi threading in some games ( and GTA IV fully supports all types of multi threading, something EM4 does not ).. not all. But of course, it might be some other issue :) Better speak with hoppah.

Core 2 Quad is Intel and not AMD dual core :)
Hence, no problem.

That was rude? Its a legitimate question. People never run a defrag and wonder why after a year of use there pc runs like crap. Because the datas spread all over the hdd making the hard drive work much harder to find needles in a haystack worth of data. People run a POS antivrius like Norton or Mcaffe and wonder why there pc runs like crap. Well first of all the programs are bloated, and secondly there protection is worthless. I can pretty much guarantee any one running an anti virus like mentioned above, would find many viruses in there PC if they bothered to scan with Malwarebytes or Nod32. Then again with the lack luster security they had they most likley need to resort to something like F-Secure Rescue CD. This is designed to boot up under linux and scan you hard drive so windows doesnt load, preventing viruses from loading at the start of windows and becoming embedded in the OS.

Oh and I wouldnt trust the app, unless it was made by AMD, and even the I deal with computer building on a daily basis and never heard any one mention that app.
