Playing with patch 1.3 and I love it with some minor mod modifactions.
No crashes, no lockups, no dumps to the desktop, and no problems.
Please reconsider joining us in SH4.
I wish you good luck in hunting in SH4 [and kisses, too ... wet ones that you wish sucked].
A >LOT< of problems deal with how the person uses their PC outside of the scope of SH4. Most people that rag LOUDLY are doing a lot of things with their PC and FAIL to tell us of those "other" things that they do. It seems that the more pure or virgin your PC is.... no problems. My gaming PC until now is a 6 year old PC with 1 gig of ram and an AGP vdeo card with 512 ram video DDR2 ram. Was ok, loading saved games took 10-15 minutes to re-load and continue on the mission in SH4.
I now have on the bench, a NEW PC with 2 gig of RAM, Vista, and SH4 patched to 1.3.
Loading a SAVED career is around 2-3 minutes at worst. Game runs like a champ with NO PROBLEMS.
Conclusion:
Got a girly PC [one gig of ram, old PC, AGP graphics card, etc.], expect problems or long loading times and several other things being a problem is a norm. Go and get a MAN-ly PC ... no problems. On the Vista PC of mine with 2 gig of RAM, PCI Express video card from NVidia ... and SH4 ... is fricking awesome ... has been my useage for the graphics and response time of the game - no crashes EVER - and most important I am having FUN enjoying the game and it is FAST!
In other words, if you don't have a PC that is DOUBLE of the minimum requirements ..... be silent, and run DEEP and quit complaining about it!
