Lockups, antialias, and accessing the CDROM.


(nudge) #1

G’Day All,

Every so often when running ET it seems to access the CDROM. This causes the game to pause, often for several seconds. This has not been a serious problem and I have learnt to live with it.

Recently I started to play around with anti-aliasing in the nvidia-settings program. If I set any level of anti-aliasing the game constantly locks and attempts to acess the CDROM.

Is there anyway to address this ?

[BTW: This is on Linux]

:beer:

first time i’ve heard of ET accessing the CDROM :confused:

sorta reminds me of red-faction, locks up, tries to access the cd, then after like 1-7mins it contiunues.
