anek Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 IWD/IWD II are actually my least favourites among the classic games - probably because I prefer companiosh with history, personality and interaction (BG, PS:T) to a player-generated party, but ah, well...I'll watch might be fun. But they also have some strengths compared to BG/BG2/PS:T imo. For example, I think the progression of encounters was done really well in IWD2. Which tactics and spells would help you the most continually changed as you progressed, so you had to adapt constantly which made it pretty interesting and challenging right through to the end.

IndiraLightfoot Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 For those wondering, Adam is still trying to get that old IWD2 work on his decade-later system. *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" ***

Monte Carlo Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 IT WORKS JUST FINE ON MY BRAND NEW UBER RIG. Then again, I'm awesome.

Sensuki Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 (edited) You don't get any stuttering / Crap FPS ? edit: actually I think the stuttering is an ATI issue Edited October 13, 2012 by Sensuki
Kai Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 When seeing this I find it kinda ironic that I managed to install IWD2 on my mac with my old pc discs and a wineskin fix without any problems at all =)

Monte Carlo Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Wow I'm glad Company of Heroes replays are faster than this.
Zeckul Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 He needs the Direct Draw Emulation fix this is a pretty good guide I Just found that includes it http://zeckul.wordpr...allation-guide/ Yup that Zeckul sure is a great blog author. His quality sucks because his recording/streaming resolution is way too low, I haven't seen any graphical glitches from the game itself (yet).
