2 Carma 2 problems

Post by SoupaVedg »

Ok, so I have weird probs with Carma 2 under Windows XP Pro SP3

First one: Sound work, but at one point, only engine sound and ped screams/squishing sounds work. I have to escape the game, then from the menu return and everything return... For a while anyway.

So, anybody know what might do this?



Second one: The peds' bodies detach from the rest of the members of the ped's corpse when they run. They kinda "swing" back and forth. Also, they seems to walk but stay at the same place as well as kinda get "stuck" when I drive close by, as if they didn't knew what to do anymore (It look like they turn 360 on themselves and move arms/heads/legs in random, but stay there, not running or anything).

Anybody know how to remedy to this too?



Thanks,

Soupa

I've encountered that first problem with the sound before. It happens every now and again, and has done so ever since I started playing C2 back in the late 90's. Must be another glitch with the game.

Suffice to say I have no idea how to fix it though.

Everybody's peds do that detach thing when they run. I hate it too.

So, it's XP that make the peds do this, Coffey?

Cuz when I had Win98, they didn't do that.

I don't know. I thought it had something to do with computers and OS running faster than back in 1998

There's a thread here with people talking about it
