I am currently playing this game and as much as I am enjoying it, it runs like $#$#. I had to update my drivers for it not to crash every 5 minutes and it still lags like watching a slide show when I move around the maps in certain instances (still not sure what the trigger is). I am wondering if it's **** coding from a **** company, and as many problems as I have had, if I will have the same problems with Armored Princes/Crossworlds on windows 7 64 if I decide to purchase either. (big ?)

I am willing to bet it is something on your end. What are your specs?

My guess it's something with the CPU or there is some software/settings conflict on your system. Could be due to Win 7 64-bit, but it'd take others who have the same platform to verify if they're having the same issues or not. I run Vista 64-bit and use the same GPU chipset you do with quite a bit less RAM too and the game runs silky smooth for me. I assume you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the game already?

I had problems too and I read around where it says that the problems are with Nvidia cards. My problems consisted of stuttering (a lot) and sometimes it would freeze my PC. The stuttering usually happened where looking at certain directions (moving the camera would stop it from stuttering). And from what I have read (I have no link) this problem does not exist in Armored Princess

Yeah, it's like the one anti- Nvidia game. Damn you ATI! heh. No, I didn't try reinstalling, I didn't change anything to make a difference. The download and installation was fine. I am guessing it has something to do with either the coding or compatibility. (guessing the coding)

See if NVIDIA has released an updated profile for 3D. I know that helped me with DA:O before I upgraded to dual 9600s.

Odd, I know my brother is able to run it at 25 FPS on his notebook.

Gotta be some kind of conflict on your system...I have a Q6600, 4gb ram, 260gtx, and windows 7 64bit and the game runs absolutely smooth. In fact all three games do (The Legend, Princess, Crossworlds). The game scales down really well too, but that doesn't matter because your system should have no issues running it maxed.

Its not Anti Nvidia.. I have all 3 Kings Bounty games and they all run extremely well.

A very well optimized game.

Sounds more like a conflict between a driver or a program you have on your comp.
