This patch fixes slowdown problems that occur when running Alice on
machines equipped with Matrox video cards. Areas that had transparent
shafts of light would slow the machine down tremendously when those
lighting effects were on the screen.
This problem originally occurred on Matrox G400 based video cards,
but may appear on any Matrox video card. If you are having this
slowdown on another video card, you can try this fix.
To install the fix, first locate the folder where you installed
Alice. Inside that directory is a folder called "base"
(default is C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\American McGee's Alice\Base).
Just copy the "pak6_update01.pk3" file into the base folder. If you are
running Alice, you will need to quit the game and restart it.
There should be other files in your base folder, with names like
"pak0.pk3" and "pak1_large.pk3". Depending on your installation
choices, you may have different pak files in your base folder.
To remove the fix, just delete the "pak6_update01.pk3" file and
restart Alice.
