It's all just really sad i have been  waiting for demigod since it was first announced and i completely rebuilt my machine with better parts. Yet it's having troubles still. I'm sure im just missing something obvious but if someone could help out that would be great.

A lot of people have been having success with changing their audio settings from Quadraphonic or 5.1 Surround to Desktop Stereo (Control Panel->Sound and Audio, then click the Audio Tab, and then Advanced under your sound playback). It worked for me, but even then it lags up quite a bit until I actually use the /nosound startup value (right click your Demigod Shortcut and in the Target value, add /nosound after the quotes)

 

not the best workaround since it leaves you without sound, but its better than nothing. hope that helps

I did another look and comparison with my system and the suggested requirements and i seem to be over on all of them so I need some help here im not sure where i should go next because im tried most everything i can think of.

Your computer specs are actually under the minimum requirements are they?  I thought the minimum processor was 2.4GHz

I have the same processor and mine runs at about 40-50fps with the /nosound. ran at about 15 with sound.

I 3gb ram and 9800gt tho.

The processor can handle the game.

the vcard sucks bro  an 8500 is not even equivalant to a 6800

i have one on my work pc and if i play 3v3 it runs ok with some frame rate issues.

 

sorry for the misspells but hey you will live

What exactly is the problem you are having?  Low FPS?  Low Simspeed?

 

To check your FPS in the game press '/' on your keypad

To check your sim speed press TAB and its listed in there

Nope no google desktop. and my simspeed is 0 or 1 and my fps is rather low but not horrible like when i have the sound off it fixs all the problems
