code creatures sucks

[wildbilly2k]

code creatures sucks because there is a minimum of 512 mb of ram and you need a geforce 4 with pixel shading

Believe me: What you mentioned are the reasons why it don´t suck !

It´s really great! It wouldn´t be so great if it was for lower specs!

Mavla, Have you tried Aquanox yet?

 

[wildbilly2k]

well the thing is that most of us dont have 512mb of ram after we spen 6 million dollars on a geforce 4 ti

 

[Penguin4x4]

GF4 Ti4200s are like 180, Radeon LE 8500s are like 150.

hmm let see for a 15$ year old that cant get a job that is still fairly expensive i have been saving money for like a month to get a ti4200 128mb cant wait only need 80 more dollars

So it won't run unless your video card has hardware based DX8?

 

[wildbilly2k]

it wont it say cant run dirext x 8 pixel shader or somethign i know that is a geforce 4 feature

It seems then that the only restricition of Code Creatures is monitor resolution.

 

[Illah]

It runs on my GF3 Ti200. Granted not very well, but I've been testing my machine alot and the card is at stock. I agree though that's it's ugly, same with Vulpine GLMark. 3DMark really sets a standard! I remember the first time I saw the nature scene I was like whoa. If you stood far enough away from the monitor it actually looked real!

I am gonna give it ago and see what I can score, lets see some scores from those who can run it.

I have no clue wht it is like but from what you have written above I guess it is a bit ugly LOL

what are some other good benchies?

imho codecreatures isn´t ugly .... the "grass scenes" are a little boring - but I think the "water scenes" really kick a**!!

There is one OpenGL bench which is pretty nice... you can get it here - not comparable to the beloved "nature scene" - but as I said - pretty nice!

 

[Cisco Kid]

LI can not get a score cause my monitor can only do 1280x720, guess it is time for another monitor , hehe and ya know I do want one ..

cisco kid

 

[Cisco Kid]

well I have to say the water /grass scene is pretty sweet!!

I ran the test at 1024x768 using 4x Anti Aliasing, I averaged 7.2 f/s through whole test , polys 3.3 and max f/s was 12

this was with cpu at default and 8500LE at 275/275 gonna give a whirl later and see what 300/300 will do to framerate also turn AA of and redo at 275/275 then 300/300 for comparison and I will try 1280x720

can not wait till I unlock 1800

cisco kid

hope to see some others post results

avg. fps: 13.9
max fps: 20
avg. polys: 5.2 mio.
max. polys 9.9 mio.

same settings like you, Kid!

I didn´t run this test "hardcore" - means some other progs ran during the test (IE, NAV, ICQ, MBM, ...) !!

hmm radeonle vs geforce 4 ti4200 i wonder why yours are better

 

[Mr. Chambers]

hmm radeonle vs geforce 4 ti4200 i wonder why yours are better

hmm i wonder who paid more

It´s plain simple: Because ATI s*c*s !!!

....but this is just my humble opinion!

The time I bought the Ti4200 the prices where almost the same - I think the Radeon was even more expensive here in Germany!
