This was the latest date I heard. Anyone able to confirm or heard anything different?
Romi - What's your computer system like that you run Morrowind on? To what level do you have the graphics bumped up?I play Morrowind right now with a P3 700, 512mb of ram (Just upgraded), 30 gig HD and a Geforce 3. I play at 1280X960 with AI distance set near low and view distance set to a little under halfway. The game runs very smoothly except when in populated towns, but even then its not bad. Turning on the the FPS meter I get around 45-50 FPS in caves and indoor areas. In regular outside areas I average about 30-35. When in populated towns I usually get around 20-25 with drops at times to 10-15 (Which isnt bad for this game. This is a slower paced game so high FPS in these areas arent horribly necessary)
I have also played Morrowind extensively on a close friend of mines computer (He lives a building down from me). He has a 1.8 gig P4 with a Geforce 30 TI500 and 256mb of ram. He plays with full view distance and AI set to high at 1024X768. Runs DAMN smooth but still suffers from minor slowdown in some of the highly populated area. Of course his computer puts mine to shame. For some reason he refuses to bump the resolution up on his though. (I think he just wants to make me feel better:frowning
Believe me when I get my hands on the X-box version I wil go really in depth on how the game runs compared to both PC's I mentioned above. I'll also be sure to mention what the view distance is like on the box version since I know that is also of interest to allot of people.
"Nobody calls me Romi so BACK OFF!!!"I have people call me Rom (as in Rome) and that doesn't bother me.
