HELP!

[frntline]

I need help. My game is running crazy fast the game play is eratic much faster than it should be like terribly bad lag but I know it can't be fps lag considering Ive play it for the past years with no problems at all and My spec's are Amd Quad Core 2.3(now 2.5), nvidia 9800 512mb, and 2 gigs of ram. The only thing I thought it would be is that i OC'd my processor and that's when i noticed it start to happen. But then i put it back to 2.3 and its is still doing it. Its not like I damaged the processor either cause I still play CoD5 and other games just fine.

Please help in anyway the game is so unplayable and i just found everyone's mods down here and am dieing to play them.

If you are using a duel core or quad core CPU then you will need to change the Affinity of the game.
Once the game starts call up the Task manager and then find the Rugby.exe file right click on it and then on Set Affinity you should have a list with how many CPU's there are like CPU 0 CPU 1 so on! just use 1 cpu and that should slow the game down to its original speed! Hope that helps?

Hi guys
I have a different problem, my rugby 08 is slow sometimes and my PC is actually pretty good, i can run almost every new game, but rugby 08 slows down when one player kicks teh ball, or when the fighting scenes are shown... i've looked up in the forum about a solution but i can't find anything
any help will be very welcome

Thanks!

What is your PC's specs?
and what graphics card are you using?

It could be to do with the game settings in the actual game, that maybe they are too high, or too low. Have a look at them and see if anything improves. It could be you are running too high a resolution, or some of the effects in the game are too high.

That makes me guess that you've got a laptop/notebook...?

Do you have the latest graphics card drivers installed?and also try to change the res from 640x480 to 800x600 or 1024x768, its known that some EA games don't work that good on laptops/notebooks... <_<

Cheers

yes it's a notebook sorry for not saying that before, and i've changed the resolution but it gets slower as i raise the resolution.
i guess i should buy a better video card, but thanks for the help anyway guys!

Vista is the epitome of evil.

Try running your game in XP compatibility.

Right Click on your desktop icon for the game (if you do not have one, create it from the start menu)
Go to Properties
Click on the Compatibility tab
Select "Run this program in compatibility mode for" Windows XP (Service Pack 2)

Alternatively you can also update your Vista to SP1. I run both Rugby 06 and Rugby 08 on Vista SP1 without any hassles
