Slow Transitions?

Hey. It's been ages since I've posted on NMA. I've been meaning to ask this question here for a while, but last time I checked, forums were down.

I recently got a new system. Runs ME, with a P4 and a Radeon 32. It was a bit rough installing the game, seeing as how it got severely watermarked (going to kill whoever used it as a COASTER). I noticed that the load/save times FLY By, compared to the original dragging save/loads. However...

Whenever there's a fade transition, such as when you use First aid, or when you first load up the game and get that oh-so-cheery enclave head staring at you...the friggin transition takes about SIX seconds. Now..that may not seem like a lot, but that super-extended fadein/out adds up after a while. Anything I can tweak in the config file to speed it up, or possibly even REMOVE the fadein/out effects?

Bungo.
 
RE: Slow Transitions?

It's probably not a problem with the game, it's a problem with the computer. Sorry to break it to you, but that system is going to be nothing but trouble, and slow as hell. Fact is, the P4 is a lemon, and ME is the tool of the devil. Just for example, I recently installed EasyCleaner on a friends computer, and later that day installed it on my new (old) laptop. My friend has a P4 1.7 Ghz with 128 DRAM running ME, and it took more time to install the program than on my laptop, which is a P150 with 44 SDRAM. I'm serious. My system is an AMD 1.2 @ 1.4, with 256 DRAM and a GeForce 2 with 32 D, running 98 SE (with all the crap disabled and removed). It runs Fallout like a dream.

Oh...Son of a...

Damnit. This is not excellent in the least. Well..I can hardly be suprised. Considering the living hell I went through getting it installed. As far as slow systems, however..I'm coming from a P2. The new one runs much faster. Looks like I'll just have to...live without. Damnit once again!
 
Slow fading

Hi, I did a search on this, but found no answers, and was wondering if anyone knew of any recent solution to this problem. During specific points in FO2 (like when the big head comes on the screen at the menu, when I die, use the doctor skill, ect) when the screen fades, it takes a WHILE to fade. 20-30 seconds. I have the 1.02 patch installed. any idea what to do? thanks

P4 2.8 ghz
raedon x800
1gig ram
much hard drive space
Audigy 2
(dun think its the system)
 
Yes, go read *all* of the stickies and try some of the solutions in there.
 
Hint: Turn off hardware graphics acceleration in Control Panel.

Also, learn to search the forum, ya lazy n00Bs !
