    I can't stress how much smoother the actual game runs on my PC, it is a great improvement!

    AMD 4200 x2

    2gb of DDr ram

    Ati EAX 1600 pro

    Maxed out with AA x2 can push for x4 but starts to lag a little. Turning pointless vegitation down alowas no lag on AA x4.

    Pentium IV 2.4 Ghz
    ATI Radeon 9600 (256 MB DDR Ram)
    Ram 1.5 Gb
    Soundcard: Hercules Fortissimo 4

    I run it with Shader version 1 (no shadow, bloom or reflections), resolution 1024x768, Unit Detail, Grass Detail, Vegetation Detail, Effects: Medium, Building Detail : High, AA off, no V-Sync, texture Filter Bilinear, Campaign shadow: on

    The campaign map: +/- 15 FPS (this seems low, but it runs quite smoothly, IMHO you don't need a high frame rate on the campaign map)

    Battles:

    Small ones (like 5 units vs 5 units) : FPS 25-40
    Fought one "big" battle (full stack vs full stack) : FPS : 20-30
    One "Mediocre" Siege (half stack vs half stack) : FPS 25-35

    The FPS aren't very high, but the game doesn't stutter and I have no lag effects.

    I used FRAPS to measure the FPS's

    Conclusion: I think this will make a lot of people happy, since my system isn't what you would call "high end" nowadays ...

    Alright. Turne dit all down to low on battles, still stutters a good bit. The campaign map runs fine but is still a bit jerky. New graphics card methinks...

    I can run it all on high with these settings andt it stutters a bit.. enough to make it anoying but so i turned it all a bit down.. but no improvement.. (well a little but not that much) So i guess I have to upgrade my RAM..

    1024 GB RAM
    256 MB Ati radeon

    Athlon 64 3000
    GF 9800GT
    1024MB ram
    19" widescreen monitor

    Running in 'widescreen mode'

    Let it auto set the settings, then upped the units to huge. Looks lovely...runs smooth and sweet. Resolution 1024x768, everything high and a bit of bloom.

    The graphics have a slightly more 'realistic' feel than RTW. and sem far less bright and clean. I really like the look of it. The gun effects are a bit understated, but I love the cannons :D

    I think the NTW team will be able to work some real magic with this engine....proper cannon loading animations and muzzle loading rifles.
