OK, I'm also running XP SP3, Nvidia 9600GT & dual core 2800 with 4Gb ram. It's still unflyable really, but here's a few screenies, runniing at very low framerate:[IMG]C:\Program Files\Fraps\110.jpeg[/IMG]

Your video card is holding you back. You'll need a better one to run with acceptable FPS. Also, I think you need to create an album (see FAQ) to post pictures.

Installation went fine, had to disable grass in order to avoid getting stuck at 90% loading. Turned forest off to get rid of the green sea texture.

Still all the rest of the textures are corrupted and this is what I get:

Tried all kind of combination of settings, tried new drivers but still no joy...

ASUS P5K
Q6700@2.6GHz
4GB RAM
GTX 460 1GB
Windows XP 32 SP3

Try the 270. drivers (they are under the beta list in NVIDIA download section) but work very well.

Grass, shadows, roads OFF, trees OFF, Anti-epilepsy OFF

Run it first on a WINDOW, 640x resolution

bonne chance...

Thanks for your help GRAthos, haven't tried those yet.

Will try that tomorrow and report back, time to go to bed now ;)

Just installed those drivers, started in windowed mode 640x480, still the same problem.

I've tried now with three different drivers, no difference between them.

Tried all the conf.ini tweaks that solved other's problems, didn't change a thing for me...

Guess I'll just wait the patch and see if it does it..

Thanks for your help ;)

I am sorry to hear this, very strange, with this GPU you should not be having such problems.

Anyway, patch is on the way 1-2 days only, and we all expect great thngs!

i have the same graphics card as you and had the same issue with winxp, its hopeless, i gave up and installed win7 64 bit, problem solved, works fine but i need to tweak still for best frame rates. basically it wont work with xp, dont bother trying

to see screenies search steam for carosel43 and look at my profile, i uploaded a bunch

I saw your posts and realized that you had the same problem and didn't manage to solve it, good to know that going to Seven 64 got things right, for it's what I intend to do, I'm waiting for the patch to see if it gets solved, otherwise I'll go for Win7 64, anyway I'll have to do it sooner or later.

Only problem for me is to get all the drivers I need for my Mobo (ASUS P5K) for W7 64, as none are available on the ASUS site, so I'll have to find them separately for each component...

I have 2 operating system on the computer.
When using the Vista of the game runs well, no matter the use DX9 or DX10.
XP SP3 is hopelessly useless for the game
