Irchard Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 [for the record, I am playing in windowed mode on Vista] When watching the game in commentary only, and at maximum speed, if you press the button to change your tactics, the game spends a long time thinking about it (whilst the match continues taking place at max speed but you can't do anything), then the screen (well the FM window) goes black for a few seconds, and says at the top that it is not responding (comp does not freeze, can still use other progs), and then eventually you get the tactics screen up. Altogether this takes maybe ten seconds, which is enough for it to be a pain; it does not happen at all if the match speed is one notch lower than maximum (or in fact any other speed), you are taken immediately to the tactics screen in those instances. BTW, is there a specific forum for bugs? feel free to move this if neccessary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOriginalJez Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I think that's possibly more a result of a slow or overused GPU/CPU than a bug tbh, it takes a while on my XP setup to get into tactics however I view the match but I've had no issues with it doing that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irchard Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 The issue completely disappears if the speed is changed by one notch, it is a disproportionate delay relative to the amount of processing the computer has to do, so I'm pretty sure there is some underlying cause other than processing time (this is also a brand new machine that has absolutely no speed problems anywhere else in the game).

TheOriginalJez Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Maybe it's something to do with changing match speed? Try clicking pause first and then going into tactics - since 08 tactics have been by default 'live' so it might be the ME trying to get down to pace that causes the problem? I don't know really, just a guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irchard Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 I realise it could be very specific to the state in which I am playing the game, but I am too tired to test when it does and doesn't happen. Maybe tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the same problem mate, and lowering the match speed a notch does indeed address the slow tactics screen! Many thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kreman Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 many thanks??? haha - How very overly polite. Anyways ... I have also found that going down a notch on the match speed helps the lag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmmcheese Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 This happens to me too, i think it is because if you watch the whole match + highlights it sets the game up before the match, but f commentry only it will set up the match so you can see it in the tatics!
