2nd Attempt to Play Game

Post by Sereth1728 »

I tried playing this game a while back but the game runs slow on all computers. The game really looks fun but i dont have a chance when the speed is this bad. I wasnt going to play it again, but i read that you can lower everything in the graphics options to make it run semi normal. I tried this but i dont know which ones affect the speed of the game. Can anyone help me with which options to lower. I lowered the grass and tree detail but that didnt help at all. It sucks cause this game really looks awesome, I've been reading on gamefaqs and everyone else is having problems with even getting to run this game on the same operating system as me. Why is there so many severe graphical problems with this game?

need more info

you could try lowering your view distance but could u provide me with a little more info about what your running like
cpu
graphics card/onboard and amount graphics ram
rpm of hard drive
operating system
amount of ram

cause i ran this game just fine on a pentium4 with 768mb of ram with 5400rpm hard drive(slowest 3.5" hdd u can get untill 5.25" hdds) with 32bit windows xp and geforce mx4000 graphics card with 128mb of ddr1 graphics ram.

granted my load times sucked every time i used a moonbridge or entered a new area but overall i got about 20fps (measured using fraps) until i got into some massive tree forests and then i would start to lag but if i looked at the ground when i ran through the trees my fps would come back up allowing me to move around lag free.

p.s. this same computer ran 3fps max on doom3 if you have that game and want to use it as reference
