starforce-clean windows installation (no previous 'contamination')
latest DT
all emulations ON
no hiding gimmicks of any kind
normally ran game, as if it was legit copy
and it's buggy as bum's balls!
there's some kind of a memory leak or something going on.. there's environment textures popping in and out, model level of detail similiarly
there were occations where there was a house right next to me, and it was rendered as a rectangle box
hell, i could walk on the stairs of the building (geometry of which would not be rendered) and my character would float midair next to/inside the box
randomly walls, ground, road, vehicles would be textured with the same texture, but a tiny fraction of it's original resolution, for no reason
ground suddenly turned into a blur, trees into untextured shaded polygons and arms into something that resembled a plastic soldier (not a videocard issue as others have reported same)
also, starforce made it's presence known with bi-hourly BSOD
uninstalled the game and starforce and once again i have a stable system
haven't tried to burn anything yet
i'll just wait for an update
i can't comment on the game itself
the technical difficulties were too glaring to enjoy the thing at all
but i was very disappointed in how little there were settings for detail level adjustment
there were several knobs one could turn with ofp to customize the game to their own preferance of detail/performance
the config file had a setting for the terrain grid size, but changing it didn't do a thing
so the terrain is actually LESS detailed than in ofp
i really liked the 'very high' terrain detail in ofp as it actually had some bumps in the ground you could take cover behind |
As I said, a clean install of xp will work every time, no retries, just as a normal game. Don´t know your setup, but on a AMD 64 3500 7900GT 256 MB everything runs smooth on very high settings and in widescreen it looks fuckin awesome. I converted the game in English and in the advanced tab you have lots of settings to play around with. Looks way better than opf!
Cheers

Yer Gazc156 , OFP in its very early days was extremely buggy. Is whole reason they released so many patches.
This is probably why we in the UK have to wait until Jan for the game. Have a funny feeling that it will come with a patch or two already implemented into the game.
Couple of mates of mine have tried it and they both were absoloutely gobsmacked how good it looks.
Gonna be one Hell of a Game when they iron out the bugs. This 100+ Player online sounds extremely interesting indeed

well, it wasnt only the bugs, it was also the copy-protection that fucked up many of the "cracked" patches, making the game unenjoyable with some cracked updates.
After the bugs where mostly gone i bought it anyways, but i hope it ll get cracked, so i can check it out before buying it. German release seems to be in a week according to an online shop i get a weekly newsletter from... ...i also hope that the german version wont be censored like fuck, as they always do

OpF was buggy but I can't say it ever got in the way of my enjoyment... in fact I'm hard pressed to remember any of the bugs.

for me it was mainly reduced frame-rate/choppiness after 15-30 minutes and stuff like non-working ai / mission-objectives and not being able to shoot. But only with some of the cracks/patches. When i bought it, all of that went away.
If the game is only half as good as i expect it to be, it ll be awesome. And judging from the screenies i dont have any doubts that it ll deliver everything and some more

You know the advanced settings are hidden until you choose to enable them?

One other thing I noticed was that I sometimes couldn't reload. Then all of a sudden it worked again...
I don't see this as pirating, I see this as beta-testing. I'll sure as hell buy the game when it's released here, but they better fix all bugs and such 'till then.

try this as it definitely seems to work more often on my rig.
try to start game. if it doesnt work then change compatibilty mode by right clicking and properties on the shortcut. just cycle between all the different compatibility modes. works for me on at least every 3rd attempt this way. then again could just be luck on my rig but hopefully will help someone else.
