hdtune is just a software you can download to check your hard disk health. nothing related to worms.

by the way: i've bougth a SSD disk (made myself a christmas gift) and now everything is so f@#!ing smooth i can play 3 games in the same time without having lags.

ill be back soon, i just need to install wa.

Dec 30 2013 23:59:44 <StepS> windowed mode isn't the only thing you need about frontend
Dec 30 2013 23:59:49 <StepS> you need it to be actually bigger
Dec 31 2013 00:00:13 <StepS> it actually is very small on my 15-inch full HD screen
Dec 31 2013 00:00:25 <StepS> while running at 640x480 or stretched mode makes it fuzzy
Dec 31 2013 00:00:44 <StepS> this problem has been around since the Worms Armageddon's release and no one has even tried to beat it

Try some of the others for the renderer, like Direct3D 9 (shader)

it seems i'm having problems with my hard disk.

shyguy try "hdtune", run the benchmark then take a look in the "health" section. if the health satatus is "warning" you probably have my same problem: need to change hard disk.

I have warning as well. what should I do?

I guess your HD was damaged when it was delivered to you/shop/manufactor, it happens quite often and you should try to get a refund/replacement. It's a new one right? Damaged HD sectors is #1 problem in the shop I used to visit. :)

  • Open the "Computer" window
  • Right-click on the drive in question, select Properties
  • Select the "Tools" tab
  • Click "Check now..." under Error-checking
  • Check both options.
*You may ask you to restart. **edit, forgot some steps; fixed.

Also, if you an Intel processor, have you tried disabling Intel SpeedStep and/or C-States in the bios?  If someone already suggested this then nvm, I couldn't find Shy's old thread.

Perhaps running WA (CD image and installation) on a RAM disk could remove the lags up as well?
Just a suggestion, please correct me if I'm wrong... but I used to have much success in speeding up some programs by running them on a RAM disk. Never tried it on WA though
