this "pc" of mine, is a 450mhz laptop, which i've used over a year now.
has some ATI's graphics chip, 8mb integrated hell. runs only on software, and there's no new drivers for this, i've searched. i'm playing on 400x300 and cl_maxfps 50 or 60, depending on the map, but it stays 20-40 anyways, if i'm not looking at nearby walls. maps with transparent walls, ex. airport, i can't play in. i get like 18fps in ap with timerefresh.
so, ringu made his new sunken3, and when i was testing it, i noticed some weird bugging with parts of the map, objects totally disappearing etc. then i gave him feedback about that on aq2suomi's forum, so he thought about the scene raising money for me, to get a bareable pc. seems the finns like me :) now he's arranged a p3 800mhz, with gf2 etc, costing about 100e. atleast half of the money's been transferred, and i'll pay the rest, if it seems there's no more to come.
so, this's how it's going, and i can't think of anything more respectable, from a gaming scene
might sound crazy, if you don't know me from finnish publics or aq2suomi.com forum :P
