Hi guys.
Recently I’ve bought a new computer.

PHENOM II X4 955 BE Quad-Core 64Bits 8MB BOX SKAM3
GIGABYTE MA790XT-UD4P SKAM3
Asus GTS250 DK/HDTI 1GB DDR3 PCI-E

I’m with windows 7 Ultimate, and so I’ve installed wa then and lots of bugs appears when I open that.
So I’ve installed wormkit, and I have extracted wkColorFix also. Once I did that, I got less bugs!
One of these bugs is about the colors on AG when I open the game. Anyway, if I start to play, minimize it and then return to the game, everything becomes normal.
Another of the bugs is: if I host and minimize before edit the map, I can’t do that anymore. When I try hosting again, the right click simply makes the game minimize.
Another thing is: I need to do alt+f4 after minimize to get back the mouse control.
Anyway those weren’t the main problems for me. Game has run normal without any problem, but this week the worst bug began.
Since then, wa is always lagging or something, looks like I can’t see all frames, even if I’m playing offline!
I’ve found that in an rr game, in the middle of the map, it was kind like impossible to play (still is in the same lave in every map) but I though it was just for rr, but it’s in every scheme.
I can play elite, t17 and these defaults schemes are ok, because you don’t run as fast as you do in ropers. There is any idea? Can someone help? sad ;<

p.s: To play wa I have to put my computer in high performance! Otherwise I see like 1 frame for 5 sec., but I can play other games in mini performance (COD, Grid, Crysis, with its options on maximum) and this is like that since I’ve installed the game. I’m just telling this because it may be useful to understand which kind of problems I’ve got here.

Does reducing the detail level (by pressing Insert) help?

check your Computer BIOS. Disable any power saving features present.

Get a clock or watch and synchronize it with your PC clock. Then, run the game with the following module, and try to reproduce the lag. When the lag happens, note the exact time (including seconds). After the game exits, find and upload the files FREEZE.LOG and FREEZELOG.DMP from your W:A folder.

The more lag the better (for this purpose). And yes, I mean real-life time, not replay time.

Hmm... are you sure? There are no lines in the log between 14:48:06 and 14:52:23. Did you make sure that your PC's clock was synchronized to your reference clock?

The last entry in the log was at 15:13:00. It looks like you didn't even run WormKit + this module.
