My computer and the game with mods

Angrykirill · 10-17-07, 09:34 AM

But do the requirements to run it well and lag-free increase proportionally with the.. visual progress?

I would go with what AVG says, he runs it fairly well with his computer, modifies his settings to do so I believe. He could answer that better. I run the game with all game settings maxed ( except fog ) and ROW, including high res. foam. I have a P4(D), 3.2, 2 gigs of ram at 800mhz, and the same video card as yours.

Hey Angry, did not mean to leave you hanging. I run the game with:

AMD 3200+....I think it runs around 2.2 Ghz
2 gig DDR400
Visiontek Radeon X1300XGE 512mb card

I have everything checked off in graphics options with exception of:
Fog (would love this effect but FPS killer for my rig)
Sun glare (hate the effect)

My sliders for the other goodies are at half or full. My FPS can be from 20 to 60 FPS. Very playable to me although some are FPS junkies and need 50+. I guess it is all in the minds eye of the player. To each their own. I use ROW (actually gave me better FPS) and a crap load of other texture mods. I'm also using RSRD and have my music I installed in the game playing(sound track to the movie Gladiator). I experience ZERO ctd. Certainly you should have a nice playing experience with the goodies added

BTW, my screenies look just like Duci's you have on this thread.

I use the same processor (yes it runs at 2.2 GHz), only 1 GB of DDR400 and an EVGA 7800GS 256MB video card and use onboard sound (fixing to rectify that) and the only times I have problems is when an explosion happens (that's because of the crappy onboard sound) and when I have MANY (and I do mean many) burning vessels in front of me. I have everything checked except VSync, full screen glare and post production filters. I get from the mid 20s to the 50s depending on what's going on. Since my eyes (and everyone elses for that matter) can't process more than 30 frames per second, the dip into the 20s isn't noticable enough to bother me. With the specs you are listing you should have decent results, though it would be a good idea to use a real sound card instead of onboard.

The graphics when explosions occur gives a little hic-up, even on highend systems....I think there is some programmer/graphic engine issue there.
