TheNay Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 AMD 2200+, GeForceFX5600 ... ran it on 800x600 with medium settings, game ran perfectly, very smoothly, really good frame rate, I can definately increase the resolution to 1024 and probably the graphics quality too ... i'm using the latest nVidia drivers off the site ... you'd probably get better results with the omega version ... Okies, well I got a P4 2.6 with HT OC'd to 3Ghz with 1GB 400mhz ram, will it run okay u think on 1024x768 on medium? I always use omega drivers (Y) ;) Btw, thanks for the reply.

Dude :no: Go play the original Doom, you can actually SEE the pixels! In newer games you can't see them they are ( Mostly ) always invisible to the naked eye. Thats what i meant!

Si Veteran Posted August 2, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 2, 2004 Go play the original Doom, you can actually SEE the pixels! You are not seeing individual pixels, they are being enlarged to represent the lower resolution.

BananaMan Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 more pixels better quality More pixels equals more detail. Higher resolution means better quality, which is yeah, just more pixels. Still, I think my point is valid. The pixels themselves aren't related to quality, it's how they are displayed which matters. Dude:no:: Go play the original Doom, you can actually SEE the pixels! In newer games you can't see them they are ( Mostly ) always invisible to the naked eye. Thats what i meant! Oh okay.

Leo Natan Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 I think it has something to do with the Specular Maps not compressed, and it's 150% of High. I'm not sure, though.
