hey mod :)

i'll be around alot from now on :) (probably complaining n whining more than anything hahaha)

ur screens r really nice, would make nice wallpapers :)

i do have some technical issues with my th2g i've got 178.13 atm and the background doesn't seem to want to refresh i.e. it will leave the last frame in the buffer :(

also sometimes this happens ingame as well, lik the frame buffer would not update and i'm left with a still frame whilst the game is still running fine ;/

it's kinda getting annoying, do u know a fix around this?

thanks mate

No sorry ... I don't know how to fix that ... that's a very odd issue.

You are using XP ...
Why 178.13 ? ... there are newer drivers than that ...

I'm using the beta 180.43 drivers in XP and all is good ...

neosin · Post by **neosin** » 28 Oct 2008, 16:26

really?

i read that they don't work?

ok so which is is best driver for xp32 and vista 32 that u can recommend me ^^

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 28 Oct 2008, 16:51

Dunno about Vista ... as I don't run it but as I say those beta 180.43 drivers in XP are fine for me ... no problems.

neosin · Post by **neosin** » 28 Oct 2008, 18:24

thanks for that, installed 180.42 beta drivers in xp and the frame buffer issue went away ^_^

i'm gonna be playing COD 5 Beta very soon, fingers crossed it will work :)

Odd that the less popular titles (compared to say Far Cry 2 or Stalker Clear Sky) seem to get proper TH2Go support out of the box... Not that I mind, but damn, I really want TH2Go for the other games a lot more.

Looks like I'll have to put this on my to-buy list after all :D

Just had to bump this to say again ... this is a friggin AWESOME game !

It is a game that for once everyone should be talking about unlike the likes of Bio(I got really really bored after just 10 minuets of the repetitive shite)Shock ... it actually deserves some attention.

If you like survival horror go buy this game.

I have to agree. this is the best game I play so far this year.

and I'm only 1 hour into it :P

it's like doom 3 + resident evil 4 mix.

I got:
- Red Alert 3
- Far Cry 2
- Fallout 3

and I'm playing deadspace.

What is the performance at TH resolutions ?

Is a GTX260 enough for 3840x1024?

What are your experiences?

Post by **Mach1.9pants** » 03 Nov 2008, 19:25

So far in dead space (apart from the opening scene) it has all been in doors so it runs pretty smoothly with not much draw distance

This game is excellent. However, on my machine it just crashes to desktop every two minutes. God knows why, but I think there is a sound card issue. So frustrating...

As for running it on a 260. Thats plenty. I run it triple screen 4320x900? with a gts 512, every thing maxed out. Graphically, that is!! Bleeding sound issue prevents me enjoying it though. I have noticed on EA's forums, it's coming in for a lot of stick for hardware issues... Hopefully they'll patch the little blighter...

Sounds promising :)

geniv2 · Post by **geniv2** » 04 Nov 2008, 00:21

game is AWESOME in surround.

yeah I get crashes to desktop occasionally.

Just finished the game yesterday, AWESOME fun game, will definitely play it again...

Playing 3840x1024 with SoftTH, only crashed to desktop when changing levels a few times, so autosave kept me from losing any progress...

Some weapons I found pretty useless (Flame Thrower, Ripper, Contact Beam), others lifesavers (Line Gun!) and I made sure to spend alot of Power Nodes on Pulse Rifle Max Damage (can have sooo much ammo), Suit Life Energy (don't worry about Air), and range on Kinesis (I didn't upgrade Stasis).

When I got to the final boss, I had one shot left from the Line Gun, zero left on all other weapons...and...I hit the last kill point, success!

my game won't even play, i get a black screen and the and exe. error. this stinks

Post by **Downtown1** » 05 Nov 2008, 00:36

Does anyone feel like the mouse sensitivity is off? I get the feeling like moving horizontally is faster than moving vertically, and aiming is always funky for me, like there's some kind of acceleration or something.

You have to disable Vsync in the menu it sorts the mouse issue out :D

I am on Chapter 10 had a couple of crashes to desktop :(

geniv2 · Post by **geniv2** » 05 Nov 2008, 03:19

too bad this game don't support 5040x1050.

I just rewired my monitor connections and can do 5040x1050 now. and I tried it with alot of gmes

IT LOOKS MUCH better than 4320x600. everything is sharper and fps doesn't go down that much. too bad the Th2g can't do 3x 1920 x1200

the only game I tried that doesn't run smooth at 1050 is Gears of War, Age of Empire III. ( Crysis and Crisis WH doesn't run smooth at 900 anyway so forgot about 1050)

Thanks a lot, that did the trick! I can actually aim now!
