I tried the --fps 100 switch myself with no effect. I also tried using the omegadrivers for ati just to see if they really were optomized, but they just lowered my fps and upon reinstall of my old drivers i still get 15 fps on normal. Even running it on low i only get 25 so I find myself using the 'w' key to get battles to run at a good speed.
I have a 1.2ghz amd, 512mb ram, directx9, fresh new ati drivers, radeon 9600 pro w/ 128ram, running windows xp, etc. I also tried turning off the Anti-aliasing and anti-insotropic filtering for opengl in the control panel and it made things ugly but had no positive effect on fps.

Anyone besides me and PVK having strange framerate issues?

The NVIDIA drivers are probably hard to remove because NVIDIA is stupid.

Ok, I'll try to try the switch and the nVidia-driver-purge etc. tonight when I get home.

Thanks,

PvK

Nobody has a clue about my speed issue?
I also had someone try it on their radeon 9700 pro and they got 20fps on normal.
Is anyone with an ATI card getting better fps than that or is dominions II part of some NVIDIA conspiracy to take over the world? I'm just noting the people running it well all have geforce cards of some description.
Course it could just be because the geforce 4 ti 4200 sold alot.

Did anyone figure out a fix for this? I just installed a Radeon 9800 card and now the same thing happens to me. I can't run the game in full screen or windowed mode. I've tried the 3.8 and 3.9 drivers, as well as those Omega drivers someone linked in the sticky thread, but nothing.

I've actually stopped playing the Dominions_II demo because it's painful for the game to end at turn_40. I wish the developers didn't do that. So I've decided to just wait until my full Version arrives.
