Help - Choppy Animation - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

I play this flash game at www.battleon.com and I am having a small problem. After I play for a while, the animation gets all slow and choppy. It also seems to happen if there's something big on the screen. Can anyone tell me how to alter my cp's performance or something so that this won't happen? Thanks.

Most flash games, if you right click, allow you to turn the detail level down - makes it look worse but tends to work faster.

What kind of computer are you running on? (it might be that your computer's just too slow)

I am running on a Laptop: Gateway Solo 5300

Pentium 3 750 Mhz
Uh, I forget the ram, like 180?
6 gig hard drive

That's about all I know about it I guess.

When I right-click I just get settings... which takes me to a thing about granting access to my camera and microphone; and I get about Macromedia Flash Player 6.

Just had a quick look at the site (I assume you mean battleon.com?); I didn't join but it seems a few others have had your problem and they've added a "low quality graphics" option. I suggest you try that.

Yeah, thanks. That was most helpful. I appreciate it.
