I think many of you had at some point the problem that the game stopped with a black screen or where running so slow that a action needed more than 2-3min, when there was a black screen i mostly thought the game was hanging but, it wasn´t.

In Pete´s plugin is a nice option to take away the fps limit, try it maybe your game isn´t hanging up, butt running just as fast as a snail.

but never 2-3 minutes

how fast is your computer?
and could it be cuz a movie was playing?

Paste your configuration (particularly what you have for your GPU) here. BoF 3 shouldn't be that slow.

Don´t take that wrong, it´s just that the game runs very slow when i rest, or when a new member comes into the group or what i told you before with the spell, the rest run´s without problems

Try dynamic instead.

Limit 30 + 50

Eh? Is it thirty, fifty, or eighty? If you're using NTSC, it should be 60, PAL, 50, and you should have the use FPS limit checked. Do you have frameskip on, btw? Turning it on might help.

 

[Guyver]

Ok

I will try it, when i have time, then i will write again.

the emu crashed all of the time and froze with my old diamond viper 550 (nvidia tnt) but it works fine with my radeon 7500. could be your graphics card

BOF3 is a very light game, try using less of your system to improve speed.

 

[Rargh]

Disable the mask bit (it produces some graphics glitches in the BoF games).

Also, does it take a long time for your characters/ennemies to cast a spell?
If so, play from an iso (as you may have noticed, the voices and sfx need a lot of cdrom access)

Thanks guys,
the slow running when i rested is gone, and the glitches are to.
Now all i have to do is play till i meet this enemy again and see how it runs.
