If you have a 2.0 shader card, you should be ok.

Ok, here's a little tech demo while I work on the bots. Just walking around the levels for now: http://www.ivansafrin.com/games/Landfall_alpha1.zipNOTES: - install openAL redist from "INSTALL_ME_FIRST" before running - you'll have to quit and reload the game to try the other level otherwise it will be slow as I'm not unloading the current level yet - for some inexplicable reason, on my machine after you load the level, it gets REALLY choppy for about 10 seconds, then it goes back to normal. I think it might have to do with the networking stuff. Let me know if it happens to you. Otherwise, not much there, just wanna see if it runs ok for people.

Didn't really work for me; the text shows up as white blocks. My computer is pretty old, though

Runs at .5 fps for me though.

It's looking really pretty. It gets really slow at first if you put many bots. If I jump with my bot it really doesn't stop going up. Nice sounds too.

"This application failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."
That persisted after reinstalling, and yes, I did run the INSTALL_ME_FIRST thing and that didn't seem to cause any errors.
It's a shame, because I was really looking forward to this...

Don't fret, I'll fix it.
I found the cause of the slowdown. It's because of the way i have threaded sockets setup. I'll fix it for the next build.
Also, I know why it's showing up as white blocks for older cards. I'll fix that too.

Looks awesome! However for me I can't see any other bots, even after setting the number to 16. Is there something I'm not aware of?

Yes, there are no bots in this build. It's just to see if there are any problems running it. Next build will have bots.

Probably missing .dlls. I get this when I forget to ship the MSVC runtimes.

Hmm, i actually do have the runtimes in there. I wonder if it's some setting with the manifest.

I get a similar error, seems like some kind of DLL mismatch problem.

runs fine (it took two tries for it to realize that it does have the manifest it's been crying for, tho), looks incredible.
I get the insane view spinning because I'm trying to doctor it with a tablet, right?

Works fine for me. I get 200fps the first time I play, then about 30fps with major frame-drop on the second, and 11fps on the third. I'm guessing that's the threaded socket problem. Looks really nice, though; the menu is super-slick, and the movement of the cockpit's really convincing. I'm guessing it's not intentional that if you hold down Space, you shoot into the stratosphere?
