The Unknown Ghosts

Cant play


Recommended Posts

Well tonight I played Soldner for about 30 mins on line and the usual "Virtual memory is low" error message came up, at the 20 minute point then at the 30 minute point my computer froze.

 

So it looks like this game is over for me till I get my new puter, hopefully in a couple of months time. Besides gonna be busy with RvS & BF:V. :(

:mellow: You may have answered this before somewhere (I don't know), what are your current specs then mate? Just in case I'm gonna run into trouble when the game arrives..

 

Mine at present:

Those specs are fine.

 

Here's the Specs required from the back of the box.

 

Min Specs: Win XP/2000/ME/98 - 256MB RAM - P4 or AMD 1.4GHZ - 3D DX8.1 Compat 32MB Geforce3 or similar

 

Rec Specs: Win XP/2000/ME/98 - 512MB RAM - P4 or AMD 3.0GHZ - 3D DX9.0 Compat 64MB Geforce4 (except MX) or ATI Radeon

 

So, as you can see - you have more than enough.

 

My Specs: Win XP - 512MB Ram - Athlon 2600+ XP - GF4 Ti4200 128MB AGPx8

 

 

Some notes to make the game run smoother.

 

1. Reduce GFX settings to 800x600x16b - Ups the FPS

2. Reduce the detail for textures etc - ups the FPS

3. Ensure that your Windows page file (virtual memory) is set to approx 1.5 x your actual physical memory. i.e. If you got 512MB - set it to 768MB Fixed - 1.5x512)

4. Make sure you have the latest graphics drivers and tweak them, turn off AA & all the other stuff - ups the FPS.

5. This game seems to be tweaked more for NVidia cards - so should run well if you have a GF4 and latest drivers (56.72 for XP/200)

6. Go into you Nvidia control panel and set the 'Refresh Rates Override' so the screen mode you use matches the best refresh you monitor can do for that res.

 

i.e. - My game is running on 1024x768x32 - I set my monitor refresh to 75 as thats the best setting for 1024x768

 

I'm sure there are other tweaks I forgot - but if you have at least 256MB mem & a good nvidia gf4 card - it should fly.
