Hello finally ive got Requiem but the lag on it is unbelievable...

If i remember, in Overture or Black Plague i didn't have problems like this! I mean i made it to level 3 on Requiem and every room is lagging. Ive set the configuration like the others, in the lowest resolution, putting only static shadow, medium effects/texture...but still the game frame isn't good..

Can someone tell me other options to set to lower or something like it?
Or this is a Requiem problem?

Thanks

Might be your PC hardware. I had it on max settings and had no issues.
the expansion tries to push the engine as far as it can go, levels are larger, more detailed and contains more light sources than the penumbra games. it is more demanding so if possible try lowering the settings even further.

Turn of bloom and post effects and change trilinear to bilinear.

That was a really fast response :O hehehe Big Grin.But as amazing as it might sounds i finished it with the lag especially the last level had some major lag >. <.I'm really starting to hate the game!
If you get lag problem after playing a couple of levels, could you try loading a level directly and see if that helps? Could give useful clues.
