Default Re: Pondering SE:V performance

A battle with 100 vs 100 (all onscreen) runs slow on my system - a P4-2.4 with 1GB RAM and 256MB GeForce 5500.

I'd imagine with that size you'd be running strategic combat anyways or if playing the battle manually you'd have it play stepped which should help things along.

So you are talking about tactical combat? In strategic combat (and it's replay) I hope there will be no problems with battles involving 1000 ship and 5000 fighters on a newer computer.
If it is not too late I would suggest a low graphic mode option for tactical combat/replay.

I'd like tactical combat to be playable with ship numbers in the low hundreds since this is not unreasonable using SE:IV late game as a measuring stick.

However, Q hit it on the head since multiplayer will not use tactical, I'd really like combat replay to be reasonably fast.
