Subject: Seven Bullets specs compared to Xidia?

Hi all,

I've kind of been saving Seven Bullets for last. I won't start playing too soon, due to the workload irl and the fact that I still want to get through other, slightly less praised mappacks, but I've been through the very professional Xidia Gold pack as well as Na Pali Haven Redux, and this old rig I use when I'm away for studies only stuttered slightly in some places, nothing gamebreaking.

Can I expect the same with Seven Bullets, or should I really consider playing it only after an upgrade?

Hehe... I swear it works just fine for LaTeX work, bureautics in general and navigating the web! :P

AMD Athlon 1.6 GHz
32-bit
1 GB of RAM memory
High-end Nvidia graphics card from... 2002
Windows 7

Got it for free 6 years ago, still works fine but yeah, UT vanilla works no prob but it's limited beyond that :P
Also have a laptop but that's just for work.

Anyway I should change this computer this summer. Even if home has a much better one.

You should have no performance problems on neither of the Jones saga and yet you do. Maybe you should close down some services or do a registry cleaning or defrag? The usual. And get back with the results then. I swear, I had no performance problems with Xidia, STR or 7B on hardware shoddier than yours.

Oh! Ok, I'll do some of that usual stuff (I do tend to forget) and check... it will have to be for a bit later though.
Thanks for the info though :)

Just don't turn the Seven Bullet's flashlight on when you are in one of Darthweasel's outside/terrain maps and you should be okay.

If you can run the Ice level in Xidia Gold then 7B shouldn't be much worse.

^This. Nothing in 7b comes close to the geo of the Skaarj levels from XG.

Thanks for the further replies!

Yeah The Genome Warriors (Oh my, what a map!!!) works fine, just a bit of slowdown in some "viewpoint"-like areas, again nothing gamebreaking.

Will still have to think about an upgrade this summer though :o

Cheers!
