Polyworks maps run slow

[ANdro!d]

I've got a prob. in my computer that when I'm playing soldat polywoks made maps, they run very slow, like when I'm walking with my player I press the button "d" to walk right and I get the answer 5 minutes later.

Are you sure you can handle Soldat? Your computer might be a bit old...
Is this an issue with every map made in PW or only yours?
Also how many polygons does your map have (I'm assuming you're making a map)? Too many polygons in the same map or on the screen at the same time can slow down your computer.

I have a hard time believing the problem would be in PW as most maps today are made in it. (Unless almost every custom map slows you down)

try turning off 'render smooth poligons' in config.exe, does it help?

[ANdro!d]

The "render smooth polygons" option in the config.exe, comes already choosed when you install the game, so the problem isn't that. And this problem happens just with custom PW made maps.

ANdro!d,

The problem may be that the map on which you are playing has 1500 polys or higher.  I do not know what your computer specs are, but they are probably low.

Try a different map, possibly one with a lower poly count.

Test a map from PW. Just make one polygon and spawnpoint and run around on it. If it's still lagging heavily, try redownloading PW, I guess...
