- 4. Gameplay Comments
- ====================
-
- Caching:
- On some lower spec machines, you may encounter "jerky" performance
- during the first few seconds of gameplay. This is because your machine
- has to cache important files to achieve smoother framerates. Slower
- machines take longer to cache files then faster machines. Performance
- will automatically improve when the files have been cached.
-
- Virtual Memory (SWAP FILE):
- Always ensure you have AT LEAST 200MB of free space left on your Hard
- Drive. Virtual memory is created on your Hard Drive when you play
- Virtua Tennis. If you do not have enough disk space please free up
- enough space by deleting any unwanted files otherwise this will cause
- major performance problems and the game may even crash.
