Its an old card, onboard i think try this, Screensize = 800x600 and put the settings all to low, shadows off and anything else that can go off.
Let me know if it works. Whats ur processor speed and how much Ram is in your system? |

Carlos ,you say you get the lag on a couple of maps only !
your vid card maybe old but it has the power to run landwarrior ,also you need very little ram to run this too so .. Are you getting the lag joining muliplayer games,when boarding a moving boat or a chopper ? if so the lag is normal for that game it happens also if you joined a multiplayer and there are ai running about they appear in frames unless your the one hosting lol these instances happen on the fastest machines in multi ,describe your lag so we can determine if its your machine ! |

Maps that lag
Maps that lag, are frequently those over 100kb. I try to keep my maps under 100kb when I am making them. When I download one that is way over 100kb, I don't even bother using it. Other things that cause lag are: Tree canopies overlapping, too many of one object, too many moving objects {like birds}, flying helicopters {more than one can cause lag}, too many objects stacked on the same spot, etc.
A biggy is if you have anything running in the background that you do not know about. The game only requirers Explorer and Systray to run. Use your Program Manager to End Task on all that stuff that automatically starts running when you start your computer, except Explorer and Systray. Hope this helps, DC
