what can I do about this problem?

Hi there,

Have you tried clicking on the eye icon on the toolbar of the map?

Also, try pressing tab to see if it brings it back.

How much RAM do you have in your system? It might be that the map is not being put into the system memory perhaps.

Ahh I see. Well reinstall the game, with the recommendations in both my topics and by everyone else. Run as admin is using vista and disable any antivirus ect.

Let us know how you get on.

Hi Shortbusss,

You're display driver is quite old. Can you check to see if you have a new driver please? Just go to http://nvidia.co.uk/ and click on drivers.

...and no worries, I know it can be frustrating

Adam

And Windows 7 eats a lot of memory, so in this case 2GB is below the minimum requirements. This could very well be the cause of the problem.

molleh · « **Reply #10 on:** September 24, 2010, 15:57:06 »

His video card is below the minimum requirements, too. Technically it should still work (the 8600GT still supports SM3.0), but he is going to really have to cut back on resolution/detail.

Shortbusss · « **Reply #11 on:** September 24, 2010, 16:11:10 »

Update graphics driver and is dont work still

I have no problems with other games!

Something else I can try?

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #12 on:** September 24, 2010, 16:23:01 »

You could try reinstalling the game with Administrator rights, and by disabling any antivirus software whilst installing.

Perhaps that might work

Shortbusss · « **Reply #13 on:** September 24, 2010, 19:57:32 »

Hi, Ever tried "Defragging" the Ship simulator games, Now I dont have got SSE steam version. But I'm very expirenced with Steam, Click on "Library", Locate Ship Simulator Extremes Right Click "Properties" and find the Defragg button, This help against some lag and errors

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #15 on:** September 24, 2010, 22:25:37 »

Hi shortbusss,

If you mean the flat screen on the bridge with the map then I don't think this works as it does in SS08.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong

Shortbusss · « **Reply #16 on:** September 24, 2010, 23:10:42 »

yes i have se youtube movie game play and is work

Subwolf · « **Reply #17 on:** September 25, 2010, 00:25:11 »

When your game seems to be running, but parts of it not running correctly like the map in this case, it's a typical symptom of ram starvation.

Your system is really not that bad, but it needs more ram. I'd try installing more, and make it ddr3 sdram, before buying a new pc

Kobus Post · « **Reply #18 on:** September 25, 2010, 08:01:19 »

Id had the same problem with ss2006, because i had to less memory,
Id put some extra ram in it and it works for me, so try to ad some ram.

Hi Shortbusss,

You could always try increasing your paging file and see if that helps. You'll find it in the systems settings menu locating in the control panel.

If you're not sure how to do this let me know

I have another question about this map.

In SS 2006, the map almost looks like the 'paper-map' used on real ships.
In SS 2008, the map alomst looks like the first 'GPS-maps'.
In SSE, the map almost looks like the betaversion of the first 'GPS-maps'.

I wonder why the developement of the map in the three different games have moved in this direction?
In my simple opinion so should the development been the opposite, that would been more natural. But I suppose that there is a reason for this, and I realy hope that it is not about that the game should run smoothly.

MokMok · « **Reply #21 on:** September 25, 2010, 17:38:43 »

In SSE2010 the maps should be the maps of SS06, which look like the real maps on board!

Shortbusss · « **Reply #22 on:** September 25, 2010, 20:37:29 »
