laggy as hell - blake123 - 01-08-2013
Alright, Amnesia ran fine a couple months back. Now it lags like hell and it's annoying me because I got a new GPU and CPU since then and it shouldn't be doing this!
I have a Radeon 6870 1gb
AMD Phenom II x4 @3.01GHz
4GB ram
Can someone help please?

Where did you get the game from?
RE: laggy as hell - blake123 - 01-08-2013
I got it from Steam.
Thanks for the fast reply btw

No problem
and there seems to be some missing particle systems. Try doing a Steam integrity check.Steps on how to do so here

Alright, well I reinstalled it so let me play it again to see if it still does it.

Looking at your HPL.log file tells me that you're getting a 57 FPS average. That's not really laggy

It was on lowest settings. It was stuttering very badly, too. I don't think the log is listing it right.
I tried it again and it stopped with the lag spikes, there are a bit but it's mostly ironed out.

after the integrity check it should be just fine, some files are corrupted. This tends to happen with steam games.
Edit: We posted at the same time, try again the integrity check. There are still file errors.
RE: laggy as hell - blake123 - 01-08-2013
I'm thinking Steam isn't installing it right. Is there a way to do it manually?
RE: laggy as hell - plutomaniac - 01-08-2013
No, I don't think so. Try loading an earlier save game before entering the laggy area and see if that helps.
