'lo,
Recently acquired a decent machine for the first time in a decade, so first instinct was to see where TW is at these days. After being slightly overwhelmed by the newer titles I was inclined to turn to the original Rome, only to find it running worse on a newer system than it did on my relatively low spec machine in 2004.
Saw suggestions elsewhere that running from the disc might show improved performance compared to Steam installations, but so far the game resolutely refuses to run after a disc install. [Followed this guide to attempt to fix the disc installation, but no joy as yet.]
Aside from providing any other tips on getting the game to run, can anyone here verify whether there's any discernible difference in performance playing from a disc installation? Would I be better off abandoning the disc install and trying to use other fixes to improve the performance of the Steam version? Any help on this would be appreciated.
[Will take this up at TWC eventually if need be, just thought to raise it here after finding that my ancient login still worked.]
Cheers.
