Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Video Card Poll
« on: March 16, 2003, 05:02:47 am »
As I will hopefully be getting a new video card soon (yay!), I wanted to conduct a poll:

What cards do you use or recommend, based on both performance and compatibility?

(keep in mind I won\'t be buying a high-end card like an all-in-wonder)

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game /
« on: March 14, 2003, 11:49:51 am »
Thx for the responses guys.  :)    I pretty much knew that the main problem is my system.  I\'ve never had a problem with any other game.  But I reduced resolution and  the color scheme and was actually able to move around with only 10 seconds of lag!!!  

I saw my first actual other person in the game...but by the time I got there he was gone :(

Yes, I am in a very tight money crunch, and the first things I\'m gettin are a new vid card and motherboard!

But is there ANYthing else I can do to make it reasonably playable in the meantime?  



ps, any advise on which video cards to buy out there?  I don\'t need the top of the line, but somewhere in the middle will be fine.  thx!

Well I realize from reading the posts that my system is just a tad slow  :P

   Celeron 400
   310RAM
   8 mB Diamond Speedstar   :(
   Windows XP

I successfully created and logged in.  When I get into the world, it is reallllllllllllllly slow and my computer sounds like it\'s going to blow up any minute.

I\'m going to try decreasing resoution and go to 16 instead of 32.  Is there anything else I can try, or am I just wastng my time?

Thx for any input!
