[Help] Dark Cloud Speedup
#1
When I run Dark Cloud (North American), when I'm in open spaces and/or lots of monsters are around, I lag. It goes from the 47-52 FPS range to 27-34 range. I've tried fiddling with the SpeedHacks tab, and still nothing.

My specs are:
Operating System: Windows Vistaâ„¢ Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1
Processor: AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ (2 CPUs), ~2.6GHz
Memory: 3070MB RAM (I have 4GB, but it says 3...?)
Page File: 2009MB used, 4367MB available
DirectX Version: DirectX 10
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Display Memory: 1777 MB
Dedicated Memory: 497 MB
Shared Memory: 1279 MB

It says on the pic that I'm running 0.9.6...
Anyway, I fixed it by upgrading to 0.9.8
Now I need to speed it up a little.

Dark Cloud (North American because my friend sucks at getting games for me)
It runs alright, but in large open areas and places with lots of objects (Monsters, flame lamps, etc) it goes down below 40FPS.
Any way I can speed it up a little? And I've tried fiddling with the speed hacks controls, but they boost the FPS by 5.

Bump?

Judging by how it plays on my C2D (2.8Ghz), I'd say your CPU is just too slow for playing this game any better.

I mean, it is a dated AMD after all. Tongue

I read on the "Can your comp run it?" thread that dual core AMDs should be able to run it...?

EDIT: If I upgraded to your processor, would it run better?

EDIT EDIT: If I upgraded to 64bit, I could use the rest of my RAM. Would that make it playable?
