Video card requirement

Post by Rainbow7 »

I play all my games on my laptop, which only has shared video memory (currently set to 16megs). No problems with BiN or WitP. Can I expect that FPG will work smoothly?

Rainbow,

It should work fine, you are within the minimum specs, but I can't give you an absolute guarantee. Still, knowing what it needs from DirectX and hardware, you should be fine.

Regards,

Yes, the game makes no particular demands on video cards beyond being DirectX compatible and 1024 x 768 minimum. We had playtesters try it out on some vintage laptops and it worked fine.

Fingers crossed, Rob.

You two are quite the salesmen. Looking forward to picking it up tomorrow. And, yes indeed, fingers crossed.

For those interested:

My laptop specs are Celeron 1400MHz, 256Meg RAM, shared video memory (set at 16Megs).

I've run the two tutorials and have had no problems. Runs smoothly.
