Admiral_Sarn Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Hi, whenever me or my enemy builds a super capital, my framerate drops alot, and I have to quit. But when there is no super capitals there is no drop in famerate. My question is what kind of video card will I need to to play a game with super caps and have little to no drop in framerate?

Admiral_Sarn Posted July 9, 2005 Author Share Posted July 9, 2005 While we are at this, at the bottom of the screen it says all times are based on GMT. What does that mean? KotOR ROCKS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted July 10, 2005 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted July 10, 2005 Supercapitals.. maybe Eville has to optimize those.. who knows. As to the general question, no there is no "minimum" video card. It lags on everyone's computer.. even Eville's. Warlords is high quality Evaders99http://swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Webmasterhttp://swrebellion.com/images/banners/swcicuserbar.png Administrator Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.- SW:Rebellion Network - Evaders Squadron Coding -The cake is a lie.

Grand_Admiral_Pellaeon Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 it lags my brotheres as well, and bar his graphics card everything is top spec, so amd 64 and all that kind of wowness. Basically for a minimum spec graphics card nowadays you want to be looking at something like an ati 9800pro (the none pro version sucks). Theyre pretty cheap right now since theyre also pretty old. But it runs half-life 2 on my pc flawlessly with all options up, so its doing its job for me. So anything like that or better is what you need. Also get a decent processor, something like what my brother has or an intel 3.4ghz or faster. That should ensure fighthers dont kill the game for you.

Admiral_Sarn Posted July 11, 2005 Author Share Posted July 11, 2005 Thank you guys, I am going to go try and get a new computer. My computer has a really outdated intel 3d chip or something like that. Its also from 2001, so, maybe thats the problem. Sometimes it also lags when there are like no ships built yet, and I have to quit. Maybe that is a bug, but it occasionally happens to me. Even if I do get a better computer, I am still gonna keep the graphics settings at their lowest, for high performance. KotOR ROCKS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthFelth Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 well my old Geforce 4 tnt 2 had no problems with running battles with superships in. get a geforce 6, actually really cheap (and powerful for the price) http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Pellaeon Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 or an ati 9800 pro. Cheap, and it runs half-life 2 and Far Cry pretty damn well. Jacen Solo: "What happened to the war?"Pellaeon: "It went away." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
