Warcraft 3 very slow

[Sorcerer]

Tried Warcraft 3 on Jas 10.4.7. It runs but the game is slow. I don't mean the framerate, it is smooth but the game itself is very slow. For example the ingame menus move two times slower than in Windows. Cube/Sauerbraten acts similiarly. Can this be fixed somehow?

I think only by upgrading. I had the same specs (only that my CPU was a CelD 2.5), and couldnt play it. Then after buying a Radeon X300 card it became quite playable. Too bad you're on a laptop - no chance for you i guess =(

try using the windows version under xover mac, that lentitude might be caused by rosetta emulation

i think your CPU and Video card is too slow.

i have a Pentium D 920 Dual core and 7600GT, and it run slows too. I also get hanging when i exit game. more like 8/9 times i would have to restart the copmuter.

CPU speed is fine, but it's an SSE2 CPU and War3 isn't Native. On my Pentium M it was painfully slow as it was emulating and emulation for any PPC program. A GMA-900 will be plenty capable of running War3 well; it was made for Rage-128 era cards (even a RagePRO will run it)
