Hey there,
A friend and me wanted to play some dungeon keeper together, we both have the GoG version of the game which is intended to run smoothly on win 7, vista and 8 aswell. We used tunngle and were perfectly able to create a game and join/start it. We have the same game, same patch, same download place. Everything's the same and it runs smoothly for me. He has 8 GB RAM I only have 4 GB and we both have quadcores. The issue is only on his game being:
seconds into the match, his game starts lagging to the point of almost screen freezing, massive FPS drop. Not only in multiplayer but singleplayer/campagin too. In the menu etc. everything is normal however.
We searched for the problem on google and the only board that -appears- to have the solution is offline.
What we tried so far:
- Compatibility mode windows xp service pack 2/3
- Changing any kind of graphic options that you can change -inside- the game options.
- adding -32biteverything and -disablegamma to "Target:"
- Disable Scaling on high DPI settings, diable desktop composition, disable visual themes
- Run as Administrator
One thing I found on a youtube video's comments is this which seems to describe the problem he's got but not really much of an explanation there sadly:
