What do you mean freezing up? Have you checked that you have the latest Java version?

Lol

After I leave a killer game, my game window freezes...

I think I got the lastest verison, how do u check?

Where do you see that?

I don't see it either

It was there earlier

well there must be an optical illusion or something.

On the old game engine, and this new one - sometimes the 'target ball' appears to swerve before going onto a final line.

It never affected me or anything, but it just looked that way.

is there any reason why I would see things like that? I know its not the game - but is it my eyes or the computer???

on desktop where it works is i.e on lappy is firefox

Nick - Can't seem to see anyone eles mentioning it, but was the shot power change in the recent update?

aflumpire, no, once connected the ball just rolls a set direction.

alone699, unfortunately the shot power may be affected for some people. This is unfortunately dependent on computer speed.

any suggestions to get the game working smoother on older machines as since my monitor as been taken away for repair i am having to use my 4 year old laptop and since the new update i struggle to take a shot within 20 seconds

Any idea how to get it back or is it something i'll have to adapt to?

Did you go to options and select "alternate cue control power"?

Yeah i have that clicked.

help me

Thats because its an IE only feature, it wont work in Firefox.



This effect could be possible if you're using monitor which isn't set up properly and thus distorting the display, espectally if its an an old CRT one. However, it would need to be pretty bad to be that noticable!

is it best to start a new thread as ive asked 3 times now or is it pointless to use the laptop?

Sorry, missed that one..

Basically it's the same as any performance issue. A 4 year old laptop should easily play the game no problem.

Make sure there are no other applications running in the background (like messenger progs, virus scans, p2p software etc)

A clean install of IE7/Java will give you the fastest performance assuming you're using windows XP.

Do give the computer a good cleanout (temporary files etc) and make sure a defrag has been run recently, feel free to get back if you still see no improvement.

My laptop is about 5 or 6 years old, but it's quality, and it's the only thing I can play decent on, so the age of the laptop should never affect gameplay!

it is kept in top condition,its been defragged,no p2p software,gaming anti-virus(super light edition)upgraded ram to 750,i have tried ie firefox and chrome.re-installed java,not sure what ekse i can do,it ran perfectly before the changes

Has anyone else noticed that games that end by the opponent leaving the room are recorded on the tourney page as BYE-DQ?
