Apple garbageįYI the genius bar is definitely not filled with geniusesĭid you quote my post for a reason or are you just trying to show how smart you are? shows hows informed I am on OS X (garbage) If the game every got laggy, I'd drop that without regret.īut all in all, still very playable on this very old, minimal, stock iMac.And there you go. One thing I still do to help things along out of habit is tilt the camera angle skyward so it doesn't have to render the ground when I'm pushing for orbit I still reduce some game graphics settings because I don't care about trees or rocks I used to set the number of debris objects to 0 but I now play with the intent of deorbiting stages. I used to absolutely need Active Texture Management to reduce the texture footprint but I can't even remember if I'm using it now because performance improved so much with 1.2. I don't run any hi-res mods but I do run a few visual enhancements and a number of functional mods some include:Ĭhatterer, Persistent Rotation, KER, Stage Recovery, PlanetShine, SCANSat, Docking Sounds, Distant Object Enhancement, KAC, Better Burn Time, Docking Alignment Indicator I don't usually have ships with more than 300(?) parts (can't recall). Home machine is Late 2009 27-inch iMac with 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 12GB RAM. I would think if they've got a newer system than I do they'll have no trouble. I'm hoping that's due to some bugs I see crop up in the logs and that it will smooth out after a couple patches. Also, 1.2 has improved those worst case scenarios a bit, but overall the game runs a little more poorly than 1.1.3. Though I guess a kid might be less forgiving. It's manageable and, at least for me, doesn't represent the majority of my gameplay.
But I wouldn't say that should scare anyone away. At those times the performance can drop significantly and it gets a bit frustrating. The real issue is when I'm working with one or more very large stations or bases with lots of vessels about. Some frame dropping and slow down on a minority of launches until I get up a few kms.
I'm running on the 2-3 year old machine shown below and it's mostly great.
