Title: System Requirements?
Post by: Krazzt on April 14, 2003, 08:13:36 pm

I am currently downloading PlaneShift and was curious about the system requirements.  I searched the site at the download section, the newbie forum, and a couple threads in the Tech help forum but couldn\'t find anything, maybe I missed something.  I am a bit embarassed to post my system specs (heh) so can anyone just tell me a reasonable system to run this game? Looks great and I\'d love to give it a try. Thanks.

There\'s an faq under the community link at the website:

Okay I read it, thanks.  Sounds like I am good to go with a 733 and 128 mb ram and 16 meg video card.  Definitely NOT the best but it sounds like I can atleast run it with some number of FPS count above 5.

I think they might\'ve updated the system requirements after they released the new version. As i recall it, 256mb ram was the minimum. Anyways expect very long load times especialy the first time you load it up and ofcourse a probably not so smooth ride. This game really likes a lot of ram.

Also the faq hints heavialy at the fact that if your machine is sub-par then you really need a good grafics card to take care of a lot. I doubt your 16mb video card will help you much.

Just my impression, haven\'t played yet myself as i\'m not running windows. :p
