Very Pretty. The sights.

Played it through. No glitches at all, and a smooth 30+ fps

Machine stats:
3500+ @ 2.2 ghz
512 pc3200
9800pro @ 256 ram

To bad it was but a single level but, I cannot see how it was such a massive download.

Am going to replay with commentaries on. My only complaint, you cannot play offline mode.

Get more RAM. It's so cheap nowadays. It's a shame that you have nice specs except for the lack of RAM.

Soon, but even so I ran into no difficulties at all. I am thankful of course but I wonder at why others experienced some difficulty with this level. I did however feel that I missed one or two commentaries. Some are our of sequence when you find them so I lost track. It did not however feel like 14 completed.

My motherboard supports 4 gigs I think. I have a bit of upgradeability left.

[edit]

Since the completion of this file I cannot seem to go back to offline mode.

I am currently reading the Steam help guide but no answer is apparent.

Anyone have a solution?

Thanks for your time.

I figured it out I think. You first log on online, shut the net off, shut steam off, then turn steam back on in offline mode.

Correct or not, that how I accomplished it.

That's how you do it. It doesn't matter when you exit steam as long as you don't "log out" and when you start steam again (as long as you're still "logged in" on the steam servers) it will ask if you want to be in offline mode. Then you can turn your internet back on.


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

I wouldn't imagine a 6200 could run HDR reasonably to be honest - it's not a powerful card and HDR is pretty demanding. I would have thought it would WORK though, just not be playable.

I got down to about 4fps in the church with the windows blown and the combine pasting me. Not helpful. Locked my PC up about three times. That's at 1280x1024 (TFT) on an XP 2400+ with 1GB o' 2700MHz DDR and a 128MiB 9800 Pro, in case that helps anyone collating any data.

I think it's the resolution that killed your PC. I ran it at 1024x768, and it's pretty smooth.

4fps, though? It's only about half as much screen space again.

How many GB of memory do you have? What's your processor speed? It depends on a lot of things, not just the GPU.

Mine crashed when there was nothing going on. I have identical stats to Satchmo. I finished up the church area stuff, walked towards the gate that explodes, took a detour to grab the items down the steps in the corner and it locked up on me. Wasn't a hard-lock though, I was eventually able to return to Windows. I only have crashed in Anzio on Source, and boy does it crash hard.

Well, you can. I am. I just extracted those files from GCF to my HL2 directory and they're all there: I even reverse-engineered (smiley) the lost coast... quite cool actually.. what they have done there.

From Steam News:

-----

  • Fixed a problem with commentary and the save/restore problem. A symptom of this problem would be combine soldiers standing with their arms outstretched
