well it runs ok on my system, and it looks pretty good, just having sound problems with my crappy soundblaster live. yeah it does feel like a port but a better one that Rainbow six vegas is

1StriveThanks.

I have sent him a message.

Also I tried FRAPS 2.8.2 and still no joy. I have paid for FRAPS, I wonder why it doesn't work. I will try a lower resolution.

Thanks again, will keep updated on progress.
Properties of the Game Icon. Check Run in a Window. Now Print Scrn works jsut fine.



Testing FRAPS and will edit this post

Edit = FRAPS still didn't work

Crisao23Just edit the config.ini file and you'll avoid the windowed mode bug.
No, if i run in full screen, the image is distorted quite horribly - its using the wrong aspect ratio.

If i run windowed, everything looks right.
Its a known bug, widescreen LCD resolutions arent supported (16:10) only widescreen TV resolutions (16:9) and normal CRT (4:3)

mine says x64 too, vista ultimate 64 bit.

The demo in the benchmark sure looks pretty, i think its ruined by the motion blur/low FPS tho :P i'm a high FPS gamer... :(

time to turn things down and do another run :D

edit: lol HDR on medium, no AA, shadows to medium, blur quality to medium - at least double the FPS :) will post screeny

the graphics in the screenshots are nothing compared to what its like real-time. I havent posted my screenies cause they blur too badly, MS paint ftl.

Before complaining ket, try running the DX10 version... of course, thats assuming you arent biased against the 8x00 series and vista, in which case enjoy the DX9 demo.

The screens are supposed to be DX10, it doesnt look any different to DX9 games IMO. Taking the lack of AA into consideration, I really think some of my PS2 games look better than those screens.

lack of AA? i ran it at 4x, AA was fine.

the screenshots have nothing on the game, they look crap compared to what the game does.
The demo has a lot of bugs, but the graphics are indeed quite good.
