You can still play with 256 RAM, as long as you have a decent graphics card and play in 800x600 or 1024x768... _________________

I played Blobkland on my *ancient* *donated* 500MHz Celeron w/186MB of RAM through Cedega on Linux I think your comp can handle it  _________________

Yeah, but what kind of FPS did you get?  _________________

blockland's not exactly what i'd call "graphically intensive", 0x5 _________________ There are only two kinds of programming languages: those people always bitch about and those nobody uses. (Bjarne Stroustrup) |

orly? I would...although I guess not compared with the modelling of the vehicles I do into AutoDesk VIZ.  _________________

Blockland is probably the least graphically intensive 3D game possible (well, not quite, but almost). I think Kerm gets confused between graphically intensive and computationally intensive because he's always hosting -- not only does his comp have to handle the strain of being the server, but his maps are GIGANTIC. That means he's getting slowdown from massive amounts of data transfer, not graphical intensity. _________________

True, true. I've found that ~700MHz, ~128MB ram machines can't play it at all though. _________________

Don't tell me...when it starts, you get 'an error has occured' or 'windows must close this application' ? _________________

Yup, that's not your computer, just your graphics driver. What's the make and model of your graphics card? _________________
