My specs are:

2.66GHz
512 RAM
GFX5200 64Mb graphics card

Perfectly playable (on the lowest settings, natch). Images 19, 20, & 21 tell quite a good little story of my adventure on the crane.

Here's mine:

XP2400+ @ 2008Mhz
X800Pro Vivo @ XT Unlock/Overclock
1GB PC2700 DDR
All @ Medium with 4xAA, 100% View Distance
1024*768 Window Mode

Found out how to mod the demo for "Ultra" Settings. Looks fri**ing amazing, but I only got something like 15fps online.

You gotta love AA.

The second time I loaded the game up after installation (at the weekend), all the settings reverted to default for some reason. Jaggies everywhere!

A quick tinker and everything was back to normal. I could do with a RAM upgrade to ion out the Win32 threat, but I'd need to go for a full 2Gb as the 1Gb I already have is pretty basic stuff. I'll see if I can pick up some sweet performance RAM in the States next Month.

Ah

Mine was very close to running fine with everything maxed.

Might put AA down to 4 and keep the resolution the second best.
I have a raedon x700 mobility card.

anti-aliasing smooths sharp edges to get rid of jaggies.

Anti-Aliasing is a feature which smooths out the "jaggy" lines. It will everything look crisp and smoothed out. However if you have an older graphics card I would leave it off as it will hammer performance, if you have a modern card such as the top end nvidia/ati or even the XL/GT you can have it on with a minimal frame-rate hit.

I just realised I've only being playing at medium.

Put everything up maximum... stuttered for first minute and when I respawn but amazing graphics. Put everything down a bit (mostly resolution which was stupidly high).

What is anti-analysing by the by?
What is the best resolution too just under the top one?

it looked a lot prettier from my cockpit...

I see practically no textures, no shadows, no AA, no nothing. But I still enjoy it.

It's like having an ugly wife.

I'm sure mine aren't as bad as those. And I'm on the lowest possible settings :S

Have a look at Bullet's screenshots...wow.
