Game Lag when going to desktop

[colinjames12]

I'm not sure if the lag in my map is caused by leaks but I'm pretty sure it's special effects.

But I also notice something, when I go to the desktop and probably do some other stuff, and go back to Wc3, the map starts to lag a little bit.

The lag gets worse when I do it again and again.

But I just want to verify this, is this true or not or does my map have leaks?

Warcraft is like that, it always lag when you mnimize it so best option is not to minimize. Also this can happen when you are playing multiplayers (meaning with other players) and when you minimize it, it will lag because your connection with them will quite be interrupted.

And please avoid double posting of the same thread.

But I suggest also searching some more facts into this at the internet or by waiting for more answers to be sure. =)

Is there lag as soon as you start the map or only later?
It is probably caused by leaks. Do you have a decent computer that the game's running on?

 

[colinjames12]

Only later, and I've experienced lags caused by leak and I'm pretty sure this isn't caused by leaks.
I'm just toning down the effects for now.

You might also try playing it in '-window'.

 

[colinjames12]

Ok thx

keep checking for leaks and periodic events that dont stop

also if you put the same resolution and color in w3 than in your windows then you will alt tab faster

u can use a handle counter to see if u have leaks. Its not exact but it does help.
u can find a link to the debugging tutorial with the handle counter at the bottom of my tutorial Things a GUIer Should Know
