( sorry for making a new topic but i'm really desperate )
ok..my specs are 2,6 Barton , FX5900XT , 512DDR400 , WinXP no SP , Direct X 9.0c , i tried both 56,72 and 61,77 nvidia drivers ...
The problem is that all the cutscenes are VERY slow ..like 15 FPS...it's like they are locked at 15 FPS and also the focus effects seem a little messed up comparing to the PS2 version....the rest of the game runs perfectly at high resolutions...
Anyone has the same problem..? Please answer...10x a lot

Thread is not useless, just that it's not in the right section.

update everything, drivers for motherboard. I had for example horrible lag in doom3 because i had old drivers for my nforce2 motherbard, i took the latest and problem solved.

CPU:2500+
MEM:512M DDR 400
DSP ADP:TI 4200 64M
HD:80G 7200

GAME SETTING:

MY FPS WAS ALWAYS 15/30;

WHAT THE QUESTION WAS?

MAYBE THE GAME SYSTEM LIMITES THE FPS,I THINK.

It runs very well on my system...but I have strange "problem":
I can't select a screen resolution higher than 1024x768 on the options menu.
I have a pentium 4 @2.4Ghz, 768mo ddram, and a geforce 4 ti4200 (tried official and beta drivers, it's the same thing).
First I was thinking of disabling my "refresh rate program" (reforce), but the result is the same.
Damn, this game runs really fine, and I really want to play it with a higher resolution !
any ideas?
