System requirements for older CCD versions? 01 Jul 2015 12:00 #47229

Does any body have the PC system requirement specification for versions 1.2.5 and 1.3.3? For some reason, Forward Driving does not seem to have this information anywhere on the web site, unless I have missed it. I have versions 1.2.5, 1.3.3 and 1.4.1. I have 1.4.1 installed and running, but the frame update rate is a little slow for my pc, so the image is not smooth, you can visually notice the frames even though I am running a GeForce GT 750 graphics card. The pc is old however, its an Intel Dual core 4500 with 2 Gigs of RAM, and I dont feel like uninstalling it and trying out the other versions to see if they will run better. Any advice will be welcome, except the obvious, and that is toget a newer pc. Thanks in advance

I believe 1.3 and 1.4 are very similar (except for the New City).

Maybe 1.2.5 is faster because the textures are of lower quality.

I think you should overclock your CPU (use this: Intel Extreme Tuning Utility); I have a MacBook Pro, the CPU is fine but the GPU is horrible so I used that software to boost a few FPS.

What I recommend when doing that is putting a pack of ice under your computer (don't worry, it won't damage your computer, just lower the motherboard temp.)

You should try overclocking in your motherboards bios on a desktop.

A PC is a personal computer, meaning it could be a laptop or desktop..

It can also be portable computer (from what I learned :))

But anyways, he has a GeForce GT 750, which is only available for laptops ;)

Even then, a lot of laptops have a factory locked clock speed. Overclocking wont do much to a lot of computers.

Just to be clear, I am running CCD 1.4.1 on a pc Desk Top. (Only 1.2.2 to 1.1.3 runs on my Quad core i 5 laptop)

I made a typing error, sorry, the graphics card is not a Ge Force 750.... its an EVGA nVidia GeForce GT740 Superclocked, PCI-Express x16 3.0, 2GB DDR3, 128-Bit, GPU:1059MHz / Mem:1334MHz, DVI x2, Mini HDMI x1, DirectX 11Single Slot Design, Nvidia CUDA, Nvidia PhysX, Nvidia PureVideoHD #GRAPHI0155# [S-4]

The mother board and pc is old. It has an Intel Duo Core E4500 2.2 GHz processor on baord with 2 Gigs of DDR2 RAM, but the fps is quite nasty, the image 'flashes' frame by frame on the monitor. I would like to be able to improve on that. Its not too bad, but it should be more seamless, I would think....

That computer does not meet the system requirements.
