Shrub91 Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 Is TSL compatible with my NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64 Pro?
Bob Lion54 Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 I don't think so. http://www.prolink-usa.com/english/product/vga/2ma.html , this should be the specs for your card. Looks like a 32MB card. I think that is the minimum requirement for TSL. If you can play it, it will be choppy, to say the least.

In my old computer I had an nVidia GeForce2 GTS card, and my framerate on average when playing KotOR1 was around 5 FPS. And TSL is even more demanding than the first game. If I remember correctly the RIVA TNT cards was the series before the first GeForce cards were released, a very old video card (by computer standards). I doubt the game would run with one.
Bob Lion54 Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 Ah, ok. I never heard of the RIVA series, so I was only guessing based on it being a 32MB card. I figured it was an older card, though.
Shrub91 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Posted October 4, 2005 Well my dad's comp is sucky, don't rub it in. [sarcasm]Great! $50 down the drain! Hallelujah![/sarcasm]
Shrub91 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Posted October 4, 2005 I'm thinking about getting a new vid card for my dad's comp by myself (yeah i hope you guys didn't actually think that was MY vid card!) , since hes a freakin' penny pincher. Can you guys give me an idea of what to get?
Shrub91 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Posted October 4, 2005 Though mine isn't much better.... NVIDIA GeForce2 MX: Chipset Model: GeForce2 MX Type: Display Bus: AGP VRAM (Total): 32 MB Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de) Device ID: 0x0110 Revision ID: 0x00b2 ROM Revision: 1057.008.2 iMac: Display Type: LCD Resolution: 1024 x 768 Depth: 32-bit Color Built-In: Yes Core Image: Not Supported Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Quartz Extreme: Supported
Bob Lion54 Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 It would help if you posted you system specs. Even if you get a good card, if you CPU isn't up to spec, it won't help. You could look at newegg. here is the link http://www.newegg.com/ It really depends on how much you are willing to spend. It should even be a bit better then the recommended specs as most games are still a bit choppy with that. I have a GeForce Fx 5600 and I have some issues with the game getting choppy. It's not too bad though.
Shrub91 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Posted October 4, 2005 I've decided to just forget about TSL, I'll sell it to my neighbor for $39.99 What video cards that you know of, fit an iMac? Or do all of them fit?
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Just go to newegg and find a Radeon 9600 under the 'Macintosh Products' section. That should run TSL
Shrub91 Posted October 5, 2005 Author Posted October 5, 2005 TSL is windows only, so unless we cough up a lot of petitions to port it, I'm doomed.
