Minimum System Requirements?
« on: January 12, 2010, 23:49:19 »
I'm finishing up my college project and documentation is part of the grade, for the Game Manual I am typing up it'd be nice if I could add a Minimum and Recommended System Requirement for Knytt Stores -- I know Knytt Stories doesn't really require much, but it'd be nice to know  C)

Thanks!

Not much. If I ignore compatibility issues, it may be able to run on '98. :P

Srsly, though, I have no idea. But it probably ain't much.

CPU: Intel 4004 processor or better
RAM: 128 bytes
VIDEO CARD: PC Compatible video card with Glidos(r) or OpenGL(r)(tm)(c) support (software mode also available)
DISKS: Two drives recommended (one should be a Hard Disk Drive with at least 1 MegaByte of available storage)

I'm sorry, but this is wrong.

You'll need atleast windows 2000, and the specs for windows 2000 are much higher.

128 bytes of RAM is almost nothing. I doubt you would even be able to view this page with that. :P

Well, you wouldn't even be able to boot DOS. ;)

I'd say that even 256 mb RAM on XP with a 1.4 ghz processor and a cheap graphics card, on-board for example would do just fine.

Some people have managed to run KS on 98, albeit not perfectly.

Ok, it may run on anything prior to windows 2000, but only windows 2000 and up are supported.

I'm not sure but if you're running one of Drakkans levels, or other really long miss-the-point third party levels then you might run into some issues for memory.
