Jerky game play

Post by txmimi » Sat Jan 03, 2015 2:25 am

Is anyone else having trouble with parts of the game running in a very jerky mode? It's so jerky in some of the puzzles that it's difficult to play at all. Think it's my copy of the game or my computer?

What do you mean by "jerky"? Do you mean it constantly lags? It could be any issue, most likely something with your computer.

If by jerky you mean it lags, then it's most probably antivirus software issue. I've already discovered McAfee and Bitdefender cause massive lag in WA3E player, while AVG causes no trouble at all after you add the WA3E folder to the whitelist. I have no idea how WA3E works with other AVs, such as avast!, Kaspersky, Panda or Norton.

I can report that my free version of avast! works just fine with WA3.

You might also have something very resource-intensive running in the background. Check what programs you have opened and see if one of them eats a lot of memory.
