Dharion91 0 Posted January 21, 2013 That's not called freezing. Freezing is when you can't play anymore, the game will not respond to anything and the screen is stuck. Your colours get messed up somehow, but I don't know what the solution for it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacko 5 Posted January 21, 2013 Theres a problem where if AI (or your) units cannot move, then the game slows down drastically I used to play PS1 Red alert a lot so I know this problem (skirmish Map #14 is unplayable because of this) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nyerguds 135 Posted January 21, 2013 I think you'd better start looking into PSX assembler then... I know nothing of the bytecode used on Playstation CPUs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dasha 1 Posted May 20, 2019 Hi, I know it’s an old topic but it’s relevant for my question. Does the slow down also affects Red Alert (the first release, not the retaliation version) ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dasha 1 Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) Answering to myself : the original game seems to also lag : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAS0DtSzWDE Edited May 27, 2019 by Dasha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TaxOwlbear 19 Posted May 27, 2019 There's nothing surprising about this. The PSX wasn't a particularly powerful device even back in the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
