Technical Question - Antoni Chmielowski - 02-03-2008 I am upgrading my rig and I am plannning on getting an Nvidia 8500GT. Will this play CM with no problems ?. Cheers guys ! RE: Technical Question - PoorOldSpike - 02-03-2008 Wish i could advise you mate, but i'm just a wargame playing grunt not a tech-head.. Hey this Antoninus dood a relative of yours? RE: Technical Question - Fubar - 02-03-2008 I just did a test of CMBB on my games rig which uses a 8800GTX, i normally play on my old media rig with it's 6600, it seemed to run fine and i tried a few turns just to make sure and all seemed stable. One thing, i didn't bother patching the game but i can't imagine the patches would bork things up !!! RE: Technical Question - Bidermann - 02-03-2008 Dont do it!!! I have a 8800 series card , all the 8000 cards dont work with CM games thats one of the reasons I cant play CM any more:mad: RE: Technical Question - Fubar - 02-03-2008 Well it worked for me.....guess you'd best ask your mates in that shop for advice. All i can say is that it's an 8800 GTX 640mb and so far all three CMx1 games have seemed fine under short term testing......whether they'd go screwy after a while i can't say. :conf: RE: Technical Question - Antoni Chmielowski - 02-03-2008 PoorOldSpike Wrote:Wish i could advise you mate, but i'm just a wargame playing grunt not a tech-head.. He is not good looking enough to be one of my relatives !:smoke: RE: Technical Question - Bidermann - 02-03-2008 You must be a very lucky man because if you have a look on the battlefront tech help forum you will see that there is a whole load of sadness with CM and the 8000 series cards RE: Technical Question - PoorOldSpike - 02-04-2008 Cmbo/ bb/ ak are around 4 to 6 years old, so you'd think Battlefront would bring out fixes to make them compatible with modern hardware.. We all love BF for giving us the cmbo/ bb/ ak series, but the company's direction since then has drawn some criticism,there's a discussion thread about it going on here - http://www.gamesquad.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72525&page=12 RE: Technical Question - Fubar - 02-04-2008 Bidermann (FGM) Wrote:You must be a very lucky man because if you have a look on the battlefront tech help forum you will see that there is a whole load of sadness with CM and the 8000 series cards MEH! Well i've got no reason to lie to AC.......like i said i normally play on an older PC so i've no idea how stable the game is over a long period of time. Believe me or don't believe me it's your choice. RE: Technical Question - Easymeat - 02-05-2008 Bidermann, you could try creating a user profile that uses another graphics card (pci 32/64MB card). In one profile you would be using the pci-express slot on the other profile the pci graphics card (or what other slot you would have the graphics card installed). You should be able to buy a cheap 32 or 64MB graphics card which can be used with CM. So when you boot your pc you would have the option of choosing a differnent configuration or use the default. This could be a possible solution. I do not have vista so cannot try the solution. |
