Tips

http://blogs.capcomusa.com/blogs/new...demo_out_today

Here are some things you can do in preparation of its release.

1. Make sure you download the correct version for your computer. If you’re on Windows Vista, you will need the DirectX 10 version. For XP users, grab the DirectX 9 version of Lost Planet PC.

2. Speaking of DirectX, make sure you have the latest version. The easy way to do that is to start Internet Explorer, go to Tools and select Windows Update. It should automatically detect and let you know if you have the latest version of not. Alternatively, for DirectX 9, you can go here and download the latest version manually.

3. Lost Planet PC requires a Shader 3.0 compatible video card. For NVIDIA, these are any cards from the GeForce 6, 7, or 8 series. For ATI/AMD, make sure you have an X1×00+ card or later.

4. Make sure you have the latest drivers, especially video drivers.

If you have an NVIDIA card:

* GeForce 6 and 7 series owners can grab the latest drivers here.
* GeForce 8 series cards owners can try the latest beta drivers for a huge boost in performance. However, keep in mind the drivers are Beta, so use at your own risk.


If you have an ATI/AMD card:

* Look for Catalyst Drivers 7.4 on ATI’s site.

Figurati che io sono in attesa da stamattina (continuo ad aggiornare la home di gamershell da quando ho saputo che contiene anche un benchmark ).

http://blog.lostplanetcommunity.com/...1/pc_demo_info

Capcom has followed a pretty aggressive demo plan with Lost Planet, right from the get-go. We took the very unusual, but highly effective, step of releasing two different demos for the 360. First up was the single-player experience timed with E3 (R.I.P.), followed by the multiplayer landmine that arrived a few weeks before the game was released. Now, we’re prepping a PC demo, which should come as little to no surprise. But what is surprising is the technical side of the demo. Actually, I should say demos.

First off, we’re going to be releasing two different versions of the demo. Although both versions will contain the exact same content (i.e., no differences in the gameplay), there will be differences in tech. We’re going to be putting out both DX9 and DX10 flavored versions of the demo, both of which will weigh in at roughly 350 MB. All y’all gaming on Vista can send Capcom a big thank you for providing the first as far as we can tell only DX10 gaming experience for your still relatively-new OS. Make sure you download the right version when the big day comes! And make sure you’re running the latest version of DX, regardless. Go here! (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/xna/aa937781.aspx)

Secondly, and more importantly to all you hot-shot overclockers and GFX junkies, the demo is also going to contain a system performance test. The test is an in-engine run-through of two levels of the game, complete with scuttling enemies, explosions and 3D meshes. The performance test checkety-checks your current FPS, average FPS, relevant system info (CPU and speed, graphics card, resolution and DX version) and, after a complete pass through of both levels, an average FPS for both the Snow and Cave sections.

I honestly haven’t seen a dedicated system performance test included in a demo in quite some time. Last one I remember for sure was for Final Fantasy XI, of all weird things. I’m sure there have been some others recently, but I’ve been too tied up with my 360 to be spending much time gaming on a PC. Analyzers used to be much more common back in the day, yo, but you crazy kids these days tend to rely on products like FutureMark’s 3DMark (http://www.futuremark.com/). Granted, the LP performance test isn’t going to dig as deep as 3DMark, but hey: it’s free!

So I say, let the battles begin! DX9 vs. DX10! Nvidia fanbois vs. hardcore ATIers! 1024 vs 1920! AA4X vs AA16X! Head into the LP PC forums and get your 133t on with flame-bait posts about your GPU-smokin’ performance. Make sure you list your rig’s specs, as well as your average FPS and graphics configurations so others can suss out if you’re being naughty and fibbing.

I’ll go first:

Dell XPS, Intel Core2 6600 @ 2.4 GHz, GeForce 7900 GTX, DX 9c
AA = 0
HDR = High
Texture filter = Anisotropic 4X
Texture resolution = Med
Model Quality = High
Shadow quality = Med
Shadow resolution = Low
Motion blue quality = Low
Effect resolution = High
Effect quality = High
Effect volume = Low
Lighting quality = Med
Display resolution = 1280 X 720
V-Synch = Off
Concurrent Operations = 2
Concurrent rendering = On
Multi-GPU = Off

Snow: 35 FPS Cave: 41

All in all, a solid score. Snow is particularly particle-heavy, with a bit more draw distance. Cave is a tighter environment, but there are far more moving objects on screen, represented by a huge swarm of flying Trilid beasties (the ones what look like flappy trilobites, that usually spawn out of those icky wall-gripping pustules). I could have boosted the overall FPS total by tweaking some of the settings (such as turning the Anisotropic filtering to Trilinear instead, or reducing some of the Effects settings), but this represents the baseline visual fidelity that is my own personal preference when playing a single-player game. Now, when it comes time for the final version of the game to ship to Johnny Q. Teabagger out there in the Real World and we start playing deathmatch battles online, I’m gonna crank everything down to zero so that I move like Chow Yun Fat coming down the stairs of a Chinese restaurant. Pew pew! Pwnzrd!

While we’re on the subject of DX10, the LP team is currently working on adding some extra enhancements for those of you running Vista and the new DX10 cards that support DX10’s latest-n-greatest Shader stuff. Those of you rocking a GeForce 8800 will see some performance gains in the final game, thanks to DX10. You’re welcome!

mamma mia che prestazioni bruttine in dx9.... poi con un 7900gtx....

[TheZeb]

downloading......

[TheZeb]

no.. dai ... è una balla..... notte raga..

[ScreamingFlower]

Sono in attesa anche io

Ho capito bene, ci saranno 2 versioni del demo, una in Dx9 e una Dx10. Vabbè, su Xp installo quella Dx9, e su Vista quella Dx10 anche non avendo una scheda video Dx10?

voglio vedere come andra la 8600gts "dx10 ready" con questo gioco....
cioè, voglio vedere quanto può andare una scheda da 170€ in dx10... sono proprio curioso

[spuci]

comunque è già il 16 maggio e non vedo l'ombra della demo... devo stare sveglio tutta la notte???

Mancano 2 ore al rilascio stando al timer del sito!

Iniziamo con i mirror

Altro che 3DMark 2006

Ecco, questo mi sa ma è il primo vero gioco Next Gen che abbiamo signori miei!
Mostruosamente eccellente a livello grafico!

PC:
ASRock 939Dual-Sata2
AMD Athlon64 3200+ @10*250 Mhz
4x512 MB Transcend DDR RAM @208 Mhz (2.5-3-3-7 / 2T)
Asus 7900GS @575/800 Mhz FW 160.03
SB Audigy2 ZS Platinum

1024x768, con tutto al massimo, Shadow Quality Medium (Maximum non è settabile ) e senza AA e AF (nessun AA, Trilinear Filtering, settaggio "Quality" dei ForceWare) ottengo:

Snow: 29
Cave: 21

Veramente ben ottimizzato!

N.B.: Per uscire dalla modalità di benchmark una volta avviata schiacciare il tasto destro del mouse

[Murakami]

Qualcuno può confrontarlo con la versione per console?

[lowenz]

Qualcuno può provare la demo DX10 su Vista con una scheda DX9 così vediamo se "DX10" sta solo per "compatibile con le DX 10" e non DX10 compliant?

[TheZeb]

360 mb e spiccioli... manco tanto in confronto agli altri demo usciti negli ultimi tempi...

[lowenz]

Test con HDR settato a Low (renderizzazione classica a 32 bit con Bloom) e AA 4x, no AF, il resto sempre al massimo:

Snow: 26
Cave: 21

[HexDEF6]

interessante sto giochetto... stasera scarico!

[loperloper]

qualcuno sa se gira su vista 64bit?

[lowenz]

La seconda parte del benchmark direi che è CPU-limited, infatti con tutto al minimo a 640 faccio 22 fps......con tutto al massimo a 1024 faccio 21
