~~ut2k4wikichici~~ · May 17, 2005, 11:40 PM

hello people ! i have a older computer as you can see in my sig. and i was worried how GTA:SA is gonna run on my Rig with Words like

Pixel shaders
Realtime Shadows
Realtime Reflections
Higher Polygon models

Highest texture Resoloution ! (this worries me most with GTA3`s and Vice`s Auto texture docompression feature ! iam worried that it will make the textures Crap Resoloution due to sum stupid bug !

anyway enough bout me !

how do u think GTA:SA will run on your rig ?

9800Pro, I don't expect any problems.

topbob · May 18, 2005, 02:54 AM

the gta3 engine is old and runs on my comp better than perfectly

~~ut2k4wikichici~~ · May 18, 2005, 06:05 AM

Even with realtime reflections everywhere and dynamic shadows and pixel shaders ?

I think my FX5900 will run it great but there is no option for me in your poll

.

I quess every game has those features in these days, nothing big. Your computer looks more than willing to run GTA:SA I'd say.

And about your poll-options, I think gf3 will run it just fine. I had duron 1200/ati radeon 9200se(worse than gf4mx/gf2 gts/gf3/gf4/radeon 8500/etc)/384mb ram and I completed GTA:Vice City with 1024x786 with everything at medium without no problems at all. GTA:SA has the same engine just a bit improved.

It's been confirmed that the graphics will be updated? I haven't really been following the game. It's nice that they are doing it, though.

Shaga · May 18, 2005, 09:39 AM

I'm most definetly sure they will update it, but the engine will be the same. Otherwise it would mean a totally new game just with the same manuscript and map layout.

Don't trust into these words too much, I'm just making ("wannabe")logical thinking.

~~ut2k4wikichici~~ · May 18, 2005, 10:32 PM

Cool ! im just freacking out because all the other GTA games have totaly screwed on my computers ! but iam sure SA will be fine ! (because they are actuley putting some efought into it this time!)

the features of the PC SA are

50-60% higher poly models (cars,trees,buildings)

Original Texture resoloution (higher quality)

Realtime Features includeing Relections,Shadows,Lighing ect.

Pixel Shader Technology SM1.0 1.1 2.0 3.0 supported

Reworked blur system and lots more inclueding bug fixes

..........

sound good hay!

~~ut2k4wikichici~~ · May 19, 2005, 01:23 AM
