I doubt it very much, but perhaps if you have a killer graphics card with highly accelerated 3D. and a gig of RAM.
I have a 1.46Ghz Athlon XP, a GForce2 MX 400 and Only 256meg RAM. Aaron thinks I might just slide in at the minimum requirements. (RAM being the big worry!) I might be forced to boost my ram to 512meg or more.. aaaah the sacrifices I make for the good of gamming! 
Cheers!
P.S. Before this comp I had a 233mhz. I only upgraded the motherboard and CPU. It cost about $425 cdn. A very worthwhile investment. Like getting a new comp for 33% of the cost! |

Usually Aaron sents you a CD with the beta.

Re: Have you applied for the Starfury beta yet?
As it is not quite at the beta testing stage yet, you should go to www.malfador.com , click on "Starfury" and see the bit about signing up as a beta tester.
Instructions will follow if you're chosen.

Re: Have you applied for the Starfury beta yet?
No programming skills are needed at all, but they can come in handy. For example, I've made my own programs, and Ive had the aggravation of trying to find that one niggling bug... so I respect Aaron all the more because I know the pain that is programming.
