Will there be an early release for the NWN2 Toolset? (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=471964&post=4012914&forum=95&highlight=)
What he said. Thanks.
Will my Graphics Card run NWN2, or, texture ram showdown! 128 vs 256 vs 512 (take 2) (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=471864&post=4013457&forum=99&highlight=)
<hr />Interestingly, the Radeon X800 (and above until full PS3.0, not sure about below) supports a kind of PS2.5, not PS2.0.
What does this mean? Well, geometry instancing for a start. We should get the important PS3.0 stuff without an upgrade.
Nice! I've yet to own a game that uses my card to the full. I can't wait to use a PS2.5 NWN2!
Is it gold yet? http://forums.bioware.com/_commonext/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif ~<hr />Well, unfortunately you're going to have to wait a bit longer. NWN2 is 2.0 or 3.0 only...no in-betweens. Those 2.0a and 2.0b implementations are vendor specific "hacks" that don't really do us (the developer) any good in terms of trying to reach mainstream market share...which unfortunately for you, equates to 2.0 and 3.0 cards.
So what are the Devs using to test & build NWN2? (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=472024&post=4013898&forum=95&highlight=)
