Title: Slow FPS and slow or no response whatsoever
Post by: violinmadness on December 27, 2010, 12:08:35 pm
Hi there.

I got machinarium in the humble bundle, i've activated my code on steam and have installed machinarium. When i boot it up the animations are slow and i have to click quite far to the right of the menu options to select them. When i try to turn off hardware acceleration the box is completely unresponsive and i can't exit it either.

You can set launch options for games on steam but you have to type them in. i found one to open it in windowed mode but it booted up as a blank box. cis there a command i could insert so hardware acceleration is turned off?

Are we supposed to be psychics?!   (http://www.en.kolobok.us/smiles/rpg/wizard.gif)

Windows (XP, Vista, 7)?
MAC?
or Linux (Ubuntu, etc.)?

Cool.  Thanks for that crucial info.  And no offense taken, dude; it's just that sometimes it really does seem like posters to this forum behave as though the crew here were psychics. 
(if only! :P )

So as to your game performance issue; by any chance, did you increase your font size (http://machinarium.net/forum/index.php/topic,1233.msg5944.html#msg5944) from 100% to some percentile higher?

No offense taken at all, it was a silly mistake. I did change the font sizes in steam friends because i'm using a HDTV as my monitor but i haven't changed anything in machinarium
