Oh noes!!! Its going to be just like in the old days - "I'm not going buy a dedicated graphics card just to play games!"

raz0rr · 10 Jun 2006 at 21:01

Wasn't this up weeks/months ago?

Reppyboyo · 10 Jun 2006 at 21:02

Yea this is an updated one.

AFAIK it also removes the ability to play without the PPU.

Echo · 10 Jun 2006 at 22:06

I've kidnapped my old physics teacher and put him in the PC.

Should run in compatibility mode :eek:

Pfft, who needs a processor to do the physics. Just give me the numbers and i'll calculate em myself. SUVAT and all that.

Can someone confirm that i can play this without a PPU?

You "NEED" a physx card? wheres the marketing in that? not everyone owns a physx card

PiKe · 11 Jun 2006 at 18:49

Can you still get the old one that doesn't require the physx card?

Nieldo · 11 Jun 2006 at 19:25

Ahhhh so this is how their going to get people to buy them physics cards.

PiKe · 11 Jun 2006 at 19:33

You just add EnablePhysX=false to the shortcut to disable the need for a physx card I think, will confirm once it's downloaded.

PiKe · 11 Jun 2006 at 20:11

Yep works fine.

WHAT!!! · 12 Jun 2006 at 09:57

I was put off by the fact you could'nt use this with out a pyhics card but now it appears you can i think i'll give it a try.

462MB in 15 mins

i love it when NTL up the speeds hehe

So is it playable without the card ?

PiKe · 12 Jun 2006 at 09:59

Yes, but turn off cloth, it glitches and slows things down to a crawl.

how do i go about turning it off ? i can't see anything about it in ingame options

never mind i found it hehe :rolleyes:

I get anything from 9fps to 40fps on an X2 4200 and a7900gtx for what its worth.

no idea what fps i was getting but dont think it went as bad as 9fps but then again i was running the game in pretty low settings.

I dont think the game is that good, the pyhsics are nice but its nothing which makes me want to go out and buy the game or even one of them silly cards to run it proper.

Im put my money away for DX10

and hopefully Dual CPU's will be used more effectively by then also which will mean these cards wont really be needed.

Gonna download this now

fini · 12 Jun 2006 at 12:19

the whole point of this new demo is to allow people without a PPU to run it with cloth turned on - basically to prove that you do need a PPU for some things.

PiKe · 12 Jun 2006 at 12:38

If that was the point it would run without needing to use the switch in the shortcut.

We should have a game online.

doodah · 12 Jun 2006 at 15:06

im guessing its pointless to try with a 9800Pro?
