ty for response. unfortunatley i have latest vid & mouse drivers &i disable pointer trails,etc just becuase of sillyness like this. what makes this so frustrating is i have played this game just fin under win 7 before. only difference is the hardware upgrades mentioned above.
ive looked all over the place but most references r t owin xp or things ive tried. it only happens in sin so i figure its got to be a setting of some kind-just dont have a clue.
i just reinstalled sins entrenchment with the concept of playing and getting the new addon if i got back into playing it like i used to. rt now the game is basically unplayable as the cursor keeps flickering- sometimes dissapearing for 2-4 secs. i just upgraded my comp to a faster intel gpu, faster nv gpu, ssd, & dbl ram. all drivers and os r same. any & all help appreciated.
i did complete uninstall, deleted leftover files & reg entries, & new install. added mods, & so far(5 planets in) everything is running smooth. ses wha thappens down the road.
from what i gather it is.. as real life allows.
thx! i only do sp, so it sounds like i should be fine doing med or even high like i used to be able to. think il try the uninstall thing again... keep fingers crossed lol
i far exceed the req & it is a brand new install... but ty for advice. one of the reasons i hate not having a hard copy of game(i have vanilla sins but entrench was thru stardock), lot less room for error when installing original from disk. when u say 'little... no issue' what probs are u having? i am running a water cooled q9550 @ 3.4 4 gig mem at 1600 7/7/7, 280 gtx @ 648 1404, & both hd are raptors. & the oc's are utterly stable:)
to confirm(someting i already knew) i played non modded entrench & got my first dump 3 colonys in. wich prolly means by the time i get to 6-7 colonies it will be unplayable. obviously since some of u are playing it with little t ono probs, i have an issue. since i am using win7 64 i am wondering if it is os dependent- what os's are being used by those with little to no probs?
skyboxes & bllom are turned of. the thing that has me confused is that i used to play this game with this mod back before the last sins update. outside of some minor issues that were fixed in this forum, never had this problem. & was running the game with boxes & high/med combination settings.
i already turned everything down to med. but ty for suggestion & especially the info. it happened very early in the game- only 2 planets colonised & very small fleet.
well, minidumps. first time for that. u less someone gas a suggestion(pls:)) i think ill wait till u guys are able to free up some time. hopefully your next update fixes? not saying its your guys issues(its not) just hopin u can fix it :) u would think their would be an official patch for some of the more common problems by now.
just wanted to thank you(again) guys for all your hard work. this mod is the reason i just reinstalled sins & am playing it again.[e digicons]:grin:[/e]
