Graphics/Lag Help

[BPH]

Hey guys I know you probably have people with this type of problem a lot but can anybody advise me on what I need to buy in order to play Black & White 2 on the higher graphic settings ( especially the fur )?

My current specs are:

Intel Celeron D CPU 3.33GHz processor
2038MB RAM
32-bit operating system
PCI Soft Data Fax Modem with SmartPC
ACPI x86-based PC
Intel 82945G Express Chipset Family graphics card
103GB Hard Disk space

Please tell me what I need to run this amazing game in all it's glory!

PS: I'm only 15 and not that rich so I'm looking for cost-effective solutions

Your main problem is the graphics card. Other than the fact that it's not made for gaming, it's also built in. Which means it needs to share the memory buss as well as memory with the CPU.

The one thing to try is to open the graphics.config file in the Data folder with Notepad and add a line with the following values."82945G 2  2  2" and see if it helps any. If you have the 1.2 patch, then you should see an option for fur in the video settings.

Other than that the other option is to buy a decent video card. If your PC has a slot for for it.

Really top notch graphic cards can be expensive yes, about 200 - 300 euro's, however, just one notch below, and the price reduces quickly to 100, or even less.

I'm certain that if you save up some money, and instead of buying a new game, buy a new graphics card, you'll be very pleased!

Or, if your birthday is any time soon, ask for money, so you can buy a graphics card! - Do include the latter, that way, people know what they are actually giving you! - A better graphics card! As more money, means better card! :laugh:


Although, if your birthday isn't close..    I don't know what you could do then.. wash all your neighbours cars?  :laugh2
