1.1 takes ages to close?

[Nate Dogg]

Hi,

Just having a really annoying problem with 1.1, if i run the game for say 15mins, when i close the game it will shut down reasonably quickly. However if i play for extended times, it will almost exponentialy take longer and longer to close down, as is 1 hour of play = 5 mins to close the application!

Anyone else having this problem?

Cheers

I've certainly noticed quitting times seem to be quite long sometimes. Normally I don't spend that long in a LOMAC session (maybe an hour at most) and it's not that obvious. But when I was filming for my recent movie I spent hours in LOMAC and it certainly took a *long* time to quit afterwards.

 

I thought the PC had crashed, but the HD light was flashing away as if a lot of data was being shuffled (rather than some sort of regular "please reboot, I currently have my head up my *rse" kind of way) so I left it for a while and eventually the desktop came back. I guess it's more of an inconvenience than a problem though.

true its more of an inconvenience, but if it was an isolated case it would be a problem. Never had this problem with 1.02.

This problem is easily fixed if you have no problems turning your computer off at the mains! ;)

This is a memory problem. Lock On is a very memory demanding game, so even with 1Gb you will notice this kinda of "loading" when you exit the game. But AFAIK this effect is more notable in 1.1 .

Easiest thing to do is alt-tab and kill LOMAC in the task manager. Instant shutdown of lomac.

I see those pesky memory leaks are still present...in 1.02 the more I spend playing the more my swapfile swells. When I quit it takes a long time to unalokate it.
