I have not downloaded the demo but how's it running on your rig?

Turn processing takes longer than CMBB but the movie and in game scrolling seem smooth enough from the brief play I have had so far.

I suspect my machine will struggle with anything over 1000 pts though.

Do you mean a K6/2? I thought they never went about 550Mhz.

If you mean an ordinary Athlon - mine's an 850 with a bit more RAM and a newer graphics card but I'm still playing 20,000 point games. smile.gif

You know, you could be right. Maybe it's the next one up, it's been so long since I paid attention to the startup screen. Doh!

20,000 points? My machine would fall over and die. My CMBB 1250 game in a large town is getting somewhat juddery (mind you, 660K PBEM movie files are not uncommon in this fight).

I took the graphics card out of my machine at work to stop myself falling victim to temptation :)

PIV 3.2 @ 4.2ghz. 1024mb PC3500 with tight timings. ATi 9800Pro with cat 3.9's. Get this, it appears to run slower than CMBB. Maybe it's just me, but I intend to look into this. I've got a Nvidia 5950 here to test, and I will install this and try it out. I'm wondering if it's the cats causing the problems as they have done with other games.

I think we might be looking at a similar problem. My computer [see above] is fast as you like, but CMAK is crawling like a snail on mogadon with a gammy leg [sic] and I can't think what might be causing this other than a graphic conflict type thing. Not being too techie minded I would love to hear any solutions to this slow-down problem we have both observed.

cheers

I had a similar problem when I replaced my 32MB GeForce DDR with a 128MB GeForceIV. I downloaded the latest drivers, installed the most up-to-date version of DirectX, and woosh.

ASUS A7N8X

AMD 2600+ xp

ATI 9800 PRO 128MB

1gb ram

when it's playing it runs fine and smooth.. only problem I have is from time to time it "locks UP" during the movie.. the cursor still moves but game stops.. I can ESC or CTRL+ALT+DEL and either black or garbled screen comes but then the turn continues.. I have to end up restarting the machine.
