Static Sounds and Framerate Collapse


Inafog

Recommended Posts

Last night the game played perfectly. Today it does not. As soon as I start the CD, even before loading a game, scratchy static sounds come from the speakers. The game loads and plays, but with continued intermittent static sounds and a framerate decline to 8-20 (from 60-80). What could have happened?

 

It does not seem to be the A-Bomb. Doors open and close normally and the flames in the Cheydinhal street lights look normal. Also, this game has gone on for just 140 hours, and I have read that the Bob usually occurs after 200+.

 

Occasionally the game returns to normal for a few seconds, then reverts to the problem. Between last night and today I changed no settings , added no mods, nor did anything else. The computer acts normally outside the game.

 

Any ideas or solutions?

 

PS - I tried the game disk in another computer. It worked fine, so apparently it's not the CD that's a problem.

---------------------------

PPS - The problem disappeared by itself after a subsequent reload. Perhaps it was some physical cause. Anyway, all's well that ends well, at least for now.
