So I've seen this topic danced around a lot but if anyone has a solid fix, you'd cement your place as a patron saint of Mechwarriors.

It seems to me the only, final hitch in getting Mechwarrior 3 operational is the bizarre rubber-banding framerate, most notable when you actually try to get anywhere - you'll slow to a crawl before eventually rocketing off, only to slow once more and the cycle continues. And the really aggravating thing is I /KNOW/ I got it working once by some fluke years ago, but the results have been thus far unreproducible.

For my part, I'm running Windows 7-64bit with an NVidia GeForce GTX 680 under the hood, and I've tried with what feels like every possible permutation of compatibility modes, running it with/without the oft-touted loader, etc.

So I implore you, if you think you've got the answer, bring it on.

So, tried using the Nvidia Inspector to limit the framerate to 30fps, and that substantially improved matters but it's still pretty questionable. SOMEONE out there must have a magic bullet for this.
