Due to the seemingly highly inefficient codeing of fps creator x10, lee recomended at least an 8800. That will be your problem

Listen to Lee's presentation from this month's newsletter. He explains why the loading can be slow - X10 uses MANY more textures than X9. For example, the Magnason character uses 2048x2048 textures, in the form of a diffuse map, normal map, and specular map. On top of that there are five variations of EACH used for instancing. So 5x3=15 textures just for that one character! That's a heck of a lot to lead into video ram. I think it would be faster for you if you had a card with AT LEAST 512mb of memory, and preferably more.

As far as I know you cannot increase the memory on a video card so you'll have to get a new card.An 8600 with 512MB will work but the recommended one (for all of the fancy effects and pretty pictures) is an 8800 with at least a gig or two of RAM.
I wish (and do hope) that Lee and co. can find a way to optimize FPSC so it works better on lower end cards.
The rumor is after the holidays they are going to release new cards and the 8800s will fall in price.

Please have mercy and use the search function.

Dark Jaguar Flame, just to clarify that It is the loading and not the game play itself? I run an 8600GTS as well and have no problems.

If its the game play make sure your Drivers are up-to-date.

this is simply the game building, and the process is hard enough with the amount of content needing to be loaded into place (as Mark mentioned). as far as i know, the only way the loading can be sorted faster is by multiple core processors, what model is yours? (you only mentioned the clock speed)

FredP. I hope your right about that. Right now the 8800's are still around 6-$700 bucks. I can't afford the 8800's let alone VISTA. Heck I couldn't find the 8800's on newegg.com for a good price. So yea untill the price comes down it's X9 for now.

I've been recommending 8800GT's for a while now. They are the cheapest but still surprisingly powerful 8800s on the market, I recently ordered mine, and it costed only 225€! That's something like--- 250-260$? For a card that overpowers 320MB versions of GTS and ATi's HD2900, I'd say the price is amazing!

I run a 8600GTS OC with 256 MB GDDR3 and can run this and Crysis at full speed with no problem. Check you're prosser and see if it is a good one. Many people can tell you that it's you're card, but really you could be like me and get a lower gread card and get a desent prosser and run everythang fine. Remember that the graphics card isn't the only thang in you're PC. Also I recondmend getting a sound card as well as a stronger powersupply. More power means better frames. And last but not least, WATER COOLENT. I have one of them and this is VITAL( I think) for you're gameing exprence. Fans just don't cut it once it come's to water coolent. This is all of the stuff I have in my PC. I run CRYSIS on vary high with all anti reales with out any problem.

PS GET SOME RAM TOO. FORGOT TO ADD THAT.

If you can't win, cheat. If you can't cheat, quite.

I just upgraded my power supply and video card this morning.
FPSC X10 is installed and I have given it a try.
All I can say is WOW! I am very happy with the new features.
Skyboxes on the fly people! The water, the WATER!!! WOW!
Excellent AI, and as many baddies at one time as you want!
Performance on the 8800gt is great so far.
I just hope that it doesn't overheat and burn up like my 8500gt did. (defective fan)

Either you have it on low quality(very), or your just plain simple lying, unless you call 5fps at full speed. I have a geforce BFG 8800 640Mb overclocked version, and it only runs at 25fps, on full quality at res 1024x1280

Quote: "Remember that the graphics card isn't the only thang in you're PC. "

Well for graphicly demanding games, yes its the main thing. I can prove this, as if i run crysis on absolubed lowest quality, i get about 70-80fps, so obvisouly the processor make less diffrence than the gfx card. In dx9 times you could argue that the particle effects and shadwos, which are now disabled, are being calculated on the processor, but the main advantage of dx10, is that is all calcualted on the graphics card - thus the 128 stream proccessors
