Summary: Age of Empires 2 (Age of Kings) runs abnormally slowly Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc4 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: chris@chrobis.com
Created an attachment (id=13796) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=13796) Console output whilst running Age of Empires 2
Age of Empires 2: Age of Kings runs considerably slower than it should on a machine which, running Windows, runs it perfectly. Despite the game being released 1999, a computer purchased new in 2005 is incapable of running it without serious slowdown and constant pauses in movement of items around the map.
I've attached the console output but there doesn't appear to be anything that seems to be indicative of the slowdown; I will try to find out if the same behaviour occurs in a demo of the game
