Problems with Tiberian Sun

[ZERO]

Hi, I recently downloaded the single player version of Tiberian Sun. The game starts just fine, however when beginning a skirmish there is a noticeable amount of lag while the text appears (I used to own the CD version and skirmishes would load instantly). Once in the game there is constant freezing; whenever the music changes, and whenever I click the options menu. It can take as long as five minutes to unfreeze and sometimes it just stays frozen for good and I have to do a hard reset of my PC. Saving and loading is unbearable; it can take up to five minutes while the music loops the beat you were listening to when it froze.

 

Please help.

 

Thank you

What version of Windows do you have?

 

Have you tried to switch renderer in the TS config?

Hi Tore,

 

I'm using Windows 10.

 

I know a little about config files (used them for Dune 2) but don't know how to switch renderer.

It's not a file. It's a configuration tool.

Open the launcher and click on "options", the renderer selection should be there.

What a totally useless comment...

Thanks Tore, I tried selecting "default" in the renderer and it just made it worse: the game froze the instant the start menu loaded.

Have you tried any other renderers? The one that works best for me is DxWnd with primary buffer emulation might not be the case for you though. Try and experiment around.

Yeah been experimenting around, can't seem to find the Goldilocks one yet.. I'll keep trying. Thanks
