Lugaru Troubleshooting

Slow?
Make sure it is at lowest detail (detail=0 blur=0 resolution=640*480 blood=0 numplayers=2 decals=0 trilinear=0 music=0)
Of these, blood, resolution and decals are probably the most important.

On OS 9
File sharing should not be starting up
A CD should not be mounting
Turn off virtual memory (if textures are not broken)

On OS X
Other apps should not be open
Setting blood to 2 can cause a significant decrease in fps under X

Textures are white
Increase Virtual memory, you probably aren't giving OpenGL enough RAM (OpenGL uses unused RAM; do not increase Lugaru's preferred memory size)

Flickering or Pausing?
Turn off motion blur

No Keyboard Input?
On OS X, restart. Sometimes Carbon keyboard support randomly dies.

Quits unexpectedly?
Try setting blood to 1 if it is set to 2

Hard to look around
If you are using a powerbook, turn off the control panel setting that ignores accidental trackpad movement
