Game Lag

[brewmaj]

The whole game is lagging, not just mouse lag. I've been trying the Windows compatibility thing, but that doesn't work. The problem was gradual at first, but now the game is real choppy at the menu before I even start a map. Even when I pause it, thinking it is a cache issue, it is the same when I resume. When I Save and Exit, the game is nearly normal, but only for less than a minute, or when I try to place another tower. I've tried in full screen and windowed. I have four monitors and have the same issue on the 4K or the 1920x1080. My nVidia drivers are up to date. This is the only game I'm having this issue with. I even tried to find some command line options to change settings, but couldn't find any. I've cleared the game cache and verified no corrupted game files. I haven't uninstalled and reinstalled yet.

Well, after 3 years the game still lags when I pause it. LOL

This was the exact reason I stopped playing years ago. Just downloaded again today, the game and tried to run it and it crashes immediately.

Compatibility mode did nothing on my machine either. But then I've never seen it do anything with any program.

I was able to play through the first level on easy, with the mouse jumping around and the game freezing for a bit every second or two. Seemed to be slightly better if I took it out of fullscreen mode.
