matrox parhelia: trouble with battle fps

when I go into the ingame video settings it starts out somewhere in the hundreds of fps range then starts dropping down until it gets down to 1-5 fps.

Don't trust the values at the beginning. It just takes Dominions a little while to find the proper value.

I don't know how you should get it faster, but my guess is that OpenGL acceleration isn't working on your setup.

lil bump

just tried some other opengl games including quake3 and they work fine. wanted to check the opengl acceleration as you recommended

looks like the problem is specific to dominions2

any other thoughts, its benchmarking the battle screen at 3fps on the lowest setting

using the w key to turn off the backgrounds did the trick

I can live with that
