Dunno if it's being looked at for the Last patch...

Does anyone know if the animation slowdown bug is going to be fixed with the Last SEIVG patch? The one I'm referring to is when I'm running the game on my 1.7GHz box (Win2k, DX 9.1) and the option for animating ship movement is turned on, the ships move extremely slowly across the sectors...but move at a decent speed (sometimes very fast) when I run the game on my original system (Win98, P233, DX 8.0).

I apologize if this has been discussed/answered before, RL stuff has kept me from visiting the forums (as wel as a lot of other stuff) until very recently.

Just curious...

I haven't heard if it is fixed or not, but it is moving slowly with my computer also. It is rather annoying. Luckily it can be turned off. However, I would like to see it fixed.

You can fix it by turning off all sound effects (under game optiions, F2). Of course, no guarantee it will work for you but it worked for me.
