No problems with the game here but judging from the NIF files in the Data directory it uses the quite robust GameBryo engine wich is also used in titles such as Morrowind, Oblivion, Freedom Force and others.
(Models also work in Oblivion and NifSkope but with a few errors as is expected since it's a newer version of GameBryo.)
Clone is acting weird though and refuses to activate and instead switches over to a unprotected three day trial mode with a 30 times run limit.
(If I were to guess it seems you can play for three days and launch the program 30 times during those days, unsure what would happen after that.)
No real bugs either and performance is quite good though it's not the most advanced graphics either so that's expected.
(Also reminds me alot about similar titles such as Titan Quest and Sacred, all of wich draw inspiration from Diablo and Diablo 2.)
EDIT: Seems the MDS file is 5kb whereas most clones are about 40kb so that's probably why the clone has some issues.

|

Hi there,
i've big problems running the game, so i'm totally frustrated that some of you guys seem to play...
i have DT 4.09 running, including SPTD 1.47. bbut no matter if i enable or disable emulations in DT the game says "detected emulation-software bla bla...".
i also tried running y.a.s.u. 1.27050, but it made no difference at all.
could someone help me with that???
thank you and best regards

Correct, the disc check fails (try starting the game once and then unmount the disc for the same result.) and the game uses a trial mode instead with 3 days of playtime, 30 game starts and a limit of 8 hours per playtime.
As I said one can just delete that registry key to reset the limit but a proper crack would be better.
(Or whatever causes the disc check to fail even with the correct mds file.)

No key, so the clone probably works online. Haven't tried it myself, got my original copy from amazon today ;P

After my original DVD gave me the same message I did some research, and it turns out the message is always there. It's just worded poorly. What it really should say is that you have to recheck the disk after either 8 hours of playtime, 3 days or 30 starts. Try playing some, then recheck the mounted iso. It should reset the countdown.

Very interesting, guess it's a new feature of SF 4.7.93 (4.8?) that allows people to play the game without a disc for a short amount of time before they need to valide their copy.
(Though it's a rather useless feature isn't it?, unless people borrow the game to others and similar.)
Seems the real problem will be 5.0 but it'll probably be a while untill it arrives.
(Don't really know what it does aside from being Microsoft and Vista certified.)
Quite a good hack n' slash so far but I've seen a few smaller issues after playing it for a while, armor is invisible for instance but that could be graphic related and not really game related and some items have odd descriptions such as the Perverted shortsword with it's 5% to pervert or the de-destabilise shortbow with it's 10% to de-destabilise, whatever those effects mean.
(Game is quite adjustable via those xml files as well wich is nice.)

Not me, I quoted another poster that had lag. I'm not having any lag at all..it runs very well.
I was messing around with the graphic config file, though, and I got it looking absolutely great...then I messed with something else (duh, can't remember what) and now everything is extremely shiny. Even the characters skin looks like it is plastic, or covered with oil. The armor looks good now, but I can't figure out what I did. I set HDR back to 0, scene glow 1 turned the entire screen white so I set that back to 0, but I'm not sure what made everything super shiny (I don't remember it being like that before). I turned on parallax, though, and the textures look fantastic now.
If I can just turn the super shine thing off, this will actually be pretty good.
EDIT: Got the shine turned off, and then re-enabled HDR, Full Precision and High Quality Shadows. It looks very good now, and the performance is good. It looks kind of crappy without the details turned up, but now that they are, it looks very nice, especially with 16AF/8XAA forced in the CP. I don't have any performance issues at all.

can't seem to find what the date for North America release will be, any ideas? Also, are they using StarFarce for all releases? If so I will have to pass it no matter how good it is...

Alright, so the game is running fine with the image, the message from StarForce is just confusing.
Game is pretty fun. I have one question though. You can split weapons up at vendors in the handle and in the blade... I did that a couple of times, but what can I do with that stuff then?

I am not even using the proper mds. Just newest daemon tools and the sptd 1.47 beta. No problems here at all.

. I suppose I will find out ... later.
That doesn't sound good. Is it just laggy in multiplayer, or laggy in singleplayer too?
