We're still doing testng to make these games run for more people with lower end pcs. If it doesn't run right, please report your gfx card/pc. Thanks. :)

Unless it was designed to lock my system up, it’s not working for me. After several trials the most likely looking thing I could get was a resolution change, then a full screen with “Z-Fail Shadow volume test.”

hmm, the link doesn't seem to be working for me but it may be because of my work's firewall. I'll check it out when I get home.

works well.

it runs ok for me, of course, with a 2gzh althon 64 and a radeon x1300 video card my system could hardly be called low-end

The only problems that I could see is that the camera movement is kinda jerky, looks almost like it's getting lag on the mouse input. Movement with the keyboard is smooth though.

Also, I don't know it's the way you intended it but the floor texture gets blurred out really close to the camera

Hmm. I don't understand. This runs great on my computer. Something ain't right. AMD Duron 900mhz - nvidia geforce fx 5200

I'm getting upward of 200FPS on my main machine, however, as Merick said, the input is jerky (both keyboard and mouse for me).

On my TV computer (1.4GHz AthlonXP, Radeon 9000 Pro) it runs smoothly although the mouse input is a little lagged.

Thanks guys. I'm in the process of updating it now, where it uses glfw. Also, I made a nice newton character controller, which will allow for much better behavior.

Works great - “Z-Fail Shadow volume test.” << Get that though.

You may want to put the basic controls in the first post :P Took a sec to figure out and I'm too lazy to open a readme.txt :D

(of course, that's just me, so I'll just deal with it)

Mush better, looks like you fixed the input problem and the floor is no longer all blurry. Looks great at my monitor's max res of 1680x1050. Turning on the anti-aliasing option doesn't seem to do anything, but that's probably more because of the textures you're using than anything else

Erm...how do I acquire FPS of a program without an internal FPS counter?

I got probably the lowest configuration in here so you should probably ignore my report. Still, if curious...

In 640*480, 32-bit color depth and full screen I get less than 1 FPS.
In 320*240, 16-bit color depth and full screen around 3-5 FPS.

Anti-aliasing option doesn't seem to do anything with me too.

My specs:
Pentium III 866 Mhz
192 MB RAM
Windows XP
ATI 3D Rage PRO

What libs are you using but the Newton one?

I just assumed being an "FPS" that is was mouse + WASD

btw, I get ~30 FPs at 1024x768 8x AA
