Well, this is my first post, so... hello  I'm playing PDS for some time now, and i was wondering what kind of machine i need to play it without big speed problems, cause my frames often slow down to about 5-10, not so funny to play. When i saw the official part 3 video, i was amazed that everything went perfectly with no slow downs. Here is my system: -Amd Athlon XP 2700+ -1536 MB Ram by Corsair (advertisment ^^) clocked at 200 mhz speed -Geforce 6600 Gt Agp with 128 mbs of ram -Windows XP (dunno if you need this too ^^) I'm playing the game without shadows and i disabled anti aliasing manually in the driver. is it possible to tweak the game a bit to make it more playable? I will later (after school) try to make some changes to the Cap files for skirmish games. besides, your mod makes homeworld 2 the best space sim / strategy game i've ever played. keep up the good work :thumbs: |

Hi Shadowman! Being a mac user, I can't tell about your system specs. What I can tell is that the v7.1 weapon redesign greatly improved fluidity on my computer; if you have not 'upgraded' to 7.1, you should give it a try. |

Look at Tel's 'welcome post' on the home page (in the middle of the post); there is a link to his storage space on filefront where you can find the 7.1 files. |

Trust your own judgment! That is the one.  Put its contents within the unarchived pds 7.0 (not the .big file), that is into the same directories, replacing older files when necessary (always replace files, never the folders). |
