Close it, reopen it?

I never had it open, I changed everything in Notepad. So, do I just start it up and that's it?

Nooooooo! What have I done!?

It's slow again! I went into a tavern and I could barely walk a few feet! :swear:

I changed it back to what I originally had, but it's still slow indoors.

Will it ever be fast again?

i haven't read of a definite fix, most people report that it is choppy in most houses/taverns/guilds. what are your computer specs?

A faster CPU or more DOSBox cycles are the answer.

Play Daggerfall on a 100MHz DOS computer and it will be relatively choppy in taverns/guilds too, while the outdoor area & dungeons are fine. Especially the large taverns with lots of wooden beams in them.

It's the Daggerfall engine, XnGine. Whilst it is a true 3D engine, it's not that optimized at complex geometry (such as stacked floors and decorations found often in taverns and palaces).

This came out a year after Quake, and the Quake engine would have made such a stronger base. But Bethesda seems to be against using any revolutionary engines, and always using less-reputable ones or their own in-house technology. :shrug:

Quake was released in june 1996 and Daggerfall was released in august 1996. And Future Shock, the first XnGine game, was released in 1995.

It wasn't choppy or slow in taverns yesterday...

Someone's got their dates wrong. :mellow:

If Daggerfall had to be re-released in 2006 I...I...<3

Whoops The years were very wrong indeed ^_^

It's running smoothly again. I deleted some programs that I don't use and also, my desktop theme. I think it will stay like this for good now.
