Wesnoth 1.4 Speed Issue (Mac)

[Meowler]

I have an iBook G4 (obviously a mac) and I downloaded wesnoth version 1.4. Everything is working well except for the speed of the game. The game slows down when I try to move a unit. In fact, every time i move a unit, I get the "pinwheel of death" and wesnoth will not do anything for about 1 1/2 minutes. I have tried disabling all animations of any kind and sounds of any kind and the problem has still continued. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I might do to resolve it?

Try to delete the preferences (the whole folder, moving the savegame folder somewhere else (do not delete it)), and download it again.

I've the ibook g4 too, and everything is working fine. Also on my old pmac 500mhz everything is working fine.

Yeah, I've never had any problems running it on an iBook G4 (or any machine, ever). Do you have some more information? Your machines specs for example?

And, in case of Leopard, if you have afloat installed...

Thanks for trying to help! I have now realized that it is only slow like this on the campaign Across the Harsh Sands and since i was playing that scenario over again I don't really need to. Thanks for responding though
