Hardware requirements

Hi everybody,
i have today get an Betakey and i play now POTCO. But the Hardware requirements are very high... I have 786MB RAM and i need minimum 1GB RAM for this game? I don´t know why...

The most of the game is based on Toontown only the graphic is other... But why i need 1 GB RAM? When i still playing the game and see other people/pirates "I´m stuck" ;-).

And i have the Grapik settings all of low... What can i do or hope?

Greetz Sebastian

PS: Sorry for my English... i come from Germany.

I think its more having to do with the game, as it renders all of the graphics on the island, whether you are looking at it or not. You notice how it runs much faster when you are in the jail than when you are out on the island. I have the same problem as you. I have a great graphics card, but only 786 MB of RAM, just like you.

I've been playing on this absolutely terrible computer.

Specs:

Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHZ
512 MB Ram

So, if I can play, I'm sure those specs are just reccomended. I've seen people playing even more strenuous games than this at 256 MB of RAM.

I'm still running on 256MB. And I'm at the part where you get knocked off the ship. xD

Really though, I can't get anything done. It's the loading that's long for me, once it's done loading, it's fine, I can walk around real smoothly.

I think I'll get some more RAM, either that or wait until this summer when it's supposed to get better.
