flameboy Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I just got copies of GTA 3, VC and SA today...just installed 3 and even though my computer beats all the recommended requirements by a mile the frame rate goes from being super fast and so hard to control to really slow...anyone got suggestions to make it work properly?
Apple_NdiB Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=330232 Sounds like a dual-core processor related issue, some older games seem to have problems with them (I know the original UT does too).
Sanchez Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Yeah, Alternately you can open gta, open task manager, right click the gta.exe and set affinity, uncheck one of the boxes.
flameboy Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 cheers will try that...also get an odd ghost image sometimes when the frame rate is stuttering.

Hm, weird, I have a core 2 duo and I play the original UT and it works fine, similarly, GTA3 works fine.. I guess it's just certain configurations Oh and by the way, certainly make sure to download any patches for the games.. that's if you didn't buy them on Steam, since I assume Steam would autopatch them for you
flameboy Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 I can only find 1.1 patch...its still playing up, frustrating...
