High End Games on Low End PC ?

Yes it is true ! Games are made on PC and they must be playable on not-very-up-to-date PC. I asked at a gaming forum about a problem i had in order to play Star wars Force Unleashed, and the smart ass replied that i will never gonna play any games if i don't buy the rig from this century. Well Sir, I must differ ! I know there comes a limit where you have no choice but to upgrade, and believe i still haven't reached that limit. That is the advantage of PC over console, you can customize your game performance (increase and decrease). I gonna post some major games i have played on my old rig, then i am going to post my PC specs.
The Hyperlink takes you to the wiki page or any other page which shows the minimum requirement.
Also win shows that i have to run in window mode, and con shows that it needs changes in config


Crysis [i know these games are old but i just cant miss it]


Gears of War

 Fifa 10

PES 2010

Crysis Warhead

Prototype

Assasin's Creed

H.A.W.X

Far Cry 2

Dead Space

section 8 [window]

Guitar Hero World Tour [Config file had to change resolution and disable physics] 

Resident Evil 5

Modern Warfare 2

Wolfenstien

Mass Effect [Window mode, detail level high]

Blacksite Area 51

And Finally Star Wars Force Unleashed The Sith Edition

Other games included Rainbow six, Stranglehold and games that i did not liked. However I was unable to run saboteur on XP, but i will get to that later. Here are my specs:

OS Name    Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate
System Manufacturer    Dell Inc.
System Model    OptiPlex GX280
System Type    X86-based PC
Processor    Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz, 3192 Mhz, 1 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM)    2.00 GB
Total Physical Memory    2.00 GB



Name    ASUS EAH3450 Series
Adapter RAM    1024 MB
Resolution    1280 x 1024 x 60 hertz

And It does Supports Dx11.

The Force Unleashed, Blacksite and Mass effect were not playable with my specs. But i was surprised when I upgraded to Windows 7. Vista is memory hogging OS, but 7 is not. 7 is very efficient and with dx11 support give added advantage. So before you give up on good game and settle for console! try some of these tricks:

• update drivers, install catalyst and nvidia physx tools. 

• try to keep C: as much free as possible, also set your virtual memory in a drive that has free space. General rule of thumb is that Virtual memory should be twice your physical memory.

• If you cannot get your game to work that is black screen try lowering the resolution and running in window mode [i recommend 3d analyzer to force window mode] window mode can be change via config.ini file or similar found in either the game folder or documents and setting folder.

•  If game lags, try setting your 3d options to performance rather than quality [as in catalyst]

• Install latest patch for game bugs, and if you cannot start the game there is a possibility that you are using a bad crack

• In config files disable post processing, cloth rendering, dynamic shadows and motion blur - there may be more but you have compromise with quality gaming and with able to play !haha! no kidding try experimenting with enabling and disable and see where you get to enjoy the game and play as well. [Crysis without post processing is cruel]

• If get an error that d3d file or dx file not found it is because your directx version is not supported, you need to update it. 

If none of that helps try to search in forums , other than that try another game.

Mass Effect:
In windows 7, the fullscreen gives blackscreen, but in windowed mode it runs like a charm

Star Wars Force Unleashed:
This is very very buggy, and requires high specs, 25 GB disk space and a lot of crashing. But i finally got 40 - 50 fps very easily !!! Here is what you should do = go to documents and setting / username / appdata / local / config.xml , open it with wordpad, change the resolution to 640 x 480, low detail 1, cloth level 0
when in game change the costume to luke skywalker or any character with no dangling clothes, also decrease your fx and music volumes. the game now only lags when its memory leaks [which is coding fault] and can be fixed by patching it 1.1

Happy Gamings !!!

The Art of Being Drunk

Many times a few friends do ask me what alcohol is like ? what it feels like ? why people drink it ? how does people lose control !!!
Well let me start by saying this ! Dont believe the hype ! it does not taste like pepsi, and definately not like nestle juice. Unless you mix it up with some drinks. It burns down the throat, gives nasuea and makes you look stupid.
But still people drink and they end up like this

Passing Out is fun, but not for the person in question !!

And if you are racist and pass out this happens

All the drunk ppl want is the dizzyness, numbness and little by little destruction of their liver and brain, Many are motivated by some classic songs like

	Metallica - Whiskey In The Jar .mp3
	Found at bee mp3 search engine

So there you go ! people drink alcohol to get good long and worry free sleep :p People lose control when they drink too much ! and the bad taste of alcohol is not worth all the aftermath !

So there is an better option :p

3 idoits implementation on bahria university !!! Must Read

So Amir Khan makes another hit movie and it is absolutely not related to any mental disease. It reflects on the educational system in india and in Pakistan. Everyone knows that 3 idiots is awesome movie and probably have seen it too. If not then you can buy it off amazon here 3 Idiots (New Hindi Film / Bollywood Movie DVD)
or see it on youtube.com. Anyhoo if you have not heard of it here is the wiki page on 3 idiots

 I have some dispute with the movie; Amir khan somewhere in the movie said that engineering should be for the people who are passionate for engineering. Here in Pakistan we are passionate for making money. Engineering happens to be the shortest and most reliable job facilitating educational branch. I mean if someone is passionate about counter strike, he is not going to take it professionally. I also appreciated one of the points Amir pointed out; that the grading system only gives pressure and no proper grooming. Hell yeah !!! there should be absolutely no grading system, it only creates the differences among the students; " there goes the 3.4, here is 3.7 and look there in the corner is 2.3, poor guy/girl, this probably gonna be his/her last exam !!!"

Well im gonna start with my favourite character : Chatur Ramalingam aka the silencer

Similarities:  Syed Fahad Ahsan 

                   Syed Ali Shamshad

Why:

chatur is marks obsessive , well so is fahad and shamo.

chatur is revenge obsessive, so is fahad.

chatur is irritating, so is fahad and shamo.

chatur believes he knows it all, so does shamo, and sometimes fahadi

If chatur had opportunity for MBA, he would have taken it (im not sure in the movie), Fahad and Shamo both are MBA (or in bank for shamo)

chatur came all the way to look for amir khan to rub his success in his face, im pretty sure fahad will do the same if he had the opportunity, but he is going to  rub in  someone's face which im not going to disclose now :p

 chatur had some stomach problems; Fahadi has dandruff problem and shamo has "keeping-his-mouth-close-for-more-12sec" problem

NOTE: shamo and fahadi, it is humor dont take is seriously !!!

Next is Rancho or Amir khan

Similarities: Probably none ! atleast not in our class, maybe bajwa for his soldering fetishes, but still no close ! !

Why?: Simple ! noone is passionate about engineering as ranchoo, i mean we cannot invent something to help deliver, or quadruple fan helicopter (we tried to make one but gave up way too early)

Im going to wind up now, because im not passionate about listing every character in our class !!! he he he

here is the last, the end boss, the lex luther
Viru Sahasrabuddhe or Virus

so here is the main villian, he is mean to students, sticks to his rules at every cost, insults and degrades students in front of other students, but he is also intelligent, sensible (in the end), and can be graceful sometimes. . . . and i forget he doesnt approve the final year project and refuses to give extension !!!

Go Ahead guess and make my day !!

Remember post your comments here and not in facebook, dont forget to mention your name !!! also subscribe me :P :P

here is something for the ppl who didnot like the post:-
