Memory means RAM (Random Access Memory), not hard disk space. How much RAM do you have?

Majority of people can\'t run Planeshift with less than 256MB of RAM.  Most people who run it well have 512MB or more... it chews it up pretty good :D

Do yourself a favour and don\'t buy another 128 MB module ;-)

Better start buying some more. The fun starts with about 1 GB.

(talking about memory. I got an P4 with 2 GB ddr ram. Planeshift runs great, but I think there\'s a memory leak in.....can that be?)

After I played for about an hour or 1 1/2 , if I look at the resources it consumes, I c that he already eaten 1.2 GB of RAM (and still increasing). IF it reaced the max, my planeshift hangs. I don\'t have it always...sometimes it behaves normal.

Is this prob related to my comp? or does somebody else has seen this behaviour also.

the next release should be easier on the resources (including memory!) ...but if i were you i\'d still get \"a bit\" more RAM ;)

...btw, what\'s the rest of the hardware in you PC? ...especially the processor and the graphic card
