Bug or other? Engine slowed way down.

Started Undercity first to check it out and I was running about 22 to 28 fps overall. Then I went back into Warrior Camp. I was getting 6.4 to 7.1 overall. Terrible compared to 23 to 26 in Beta 3. Now even on a new mission with nothing in it I'm getting 10.2 tops. I went back into Undercity and I'm getting 4.1 to 8.1 tops now. Something I missed? A new setting perchance? Memory leak? Something really went amiss after I went through Undercity the first time.

I'm running XPS, w/Duel 8700m GT SLi
I haven't made any adjustments to my gfx card settings. So I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with my cards.

Heading home to reinstall Beta3... dang it...

Also...
Certain Materials and cubemaps in the scattersky for the moon and night sky will cause the engine to crash.

About the author

I used to be obsessed with building my own open-ended RPG and a 3D Side Scroller RPG. But the job/house/girlfriend got in the way. I know, I know. Now I concentrate on doing architectural renderings (with the help of T3D of course) and VBA programming.

    I reinstalled and it seems to work just fine now. Maybe it didn't install correctly or I had something open that messed with it. Hmmm anywho... 22 to 40 in Undercity and Warrior Camp is running around 26 to 48. NICE!!!

    EDIT: I reinstalled Beta4
