My uncle just bought a laptop and I tried running Polymer on it. I didn't expect it to run it since it just has Intel graphics, but it did run it and quite well. Well, that was without using the maphacks and Polymer HRP pack. I tried it with those installed, too, but it lagged a bit. That was the only problem. Here's the specs:

with stuff like this becoming more prevalent the intel graphics card can feast on penis

I too can run Polymer on my Intel graphics accelerater from 2007. The lights don't have any brightness level between super bright and dark, so I'm not bragging I can get it running flawlessly, but I can at least load it and play a level.

What the hell is going on, I'm away for a month and we get an isometric view for 2D mode and model clipping?

Yeah. Imagine what we could get if you would leave for a year.



j/k

[bullerbullerseven]

hehe. right now all it really does is giving you another view. but that can actually be useful. at least for me :S
that is the 3d view i am talking about

Looks like the texture above the door is outdated. It was polymerized long time ago. I'd gladly doublechecked it but I don't recognize this map...

Actually thanks to The_Commander I've looked at this room in e1l2 and have to say that you don't have polymer HRP or it's very outdated:

Don't recognise? It's E1L2, how can you not recognise it?

[Roma Loom]

My first thought was that it's related to e1l2 but I've never looked at this door from this angle.

[The Commander]

It's the slope and the vent at the end that gives it away.

[MusicallyInspired]

You mean you've never went behind that counter to get the shotgun?

[The Commander]

I always stop there and check all my weapons because there is a sign stating me to do so.

[bullerbullerseven]

i have never seen the door from that side xD

Not sure if you care about it, but what you have there is either very outdated or not working properly.
But then again, with a geforce 6100, the newest version of polymer wouldn't probably run decent anyway.
But I'm just enforcing what has been said above, to confirm that what you are showing in that screenshot looks very outdated/broken.
There are no bumpmaps and the lighting is too bright.
Roma Loom's screenshot shows how the latest version of polymer looks like.

You need to start playing some duke 3D man
I instantly recognized the door the second I saw it.
I've seen every door and every level of Duke 3D from all possible angles hundreds of times.
I would even recognize areas of duke 3d if they were untextured.

I wasn't being ironic. I've literally played Duke 3D way too much, especially the first levels, I know them with my eyes closed.

[Mike Norvak]

I hav a question? What graphic card recommend me to run Polymer properly, i ´m looking for something below $170 (dollars) maybe too cheap? I´m running under Windows 7 32 bits , with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual core 6000+ at 3.00Ghz and 2Gb on RAM

[Mike Norvak]

Okay Thanks! Now i'm gonna check what's the price in my country...

[Stabs]

or 9800gtx or gtx 260 or gts250/240

Yeah i'm checking and the price for this product (GeForce GTX 460) is too expensive, near to double. So i think gtx9800 or 250 is the best (just about 165 -175 dollars)

And could i run poly fine with the system specifications pointed before?, u know, maps like those on Eternity ,etc.

[Stabs]

run with the gts250 if you can, its basically a more updated version of the 9800gtx

I'd also note that you can tell something isn't right because the HUD model doesn't appear to have any lighting applied to it at all...

All I know is it looks real good to me compared to what I've been use to seeing all these years. An this......

......it's not that outdated as you see in the log below.

Your eduke version will soon be a year old, and your HRP is out of date.
Update your shit.

Dude, with a 6100 and with winxp sp1 the latest HRP would lag like shit.
The more you have, the more you want. If he's happy with that old version I think it can only mean good news for him. If that old version looks awesome for him and it also runs decent on his 6100, I think is better than have the latest version lag like shit.
I've tried the latest hrp with polymer on a 6600gt for the fuck of it, and it lags like shit on xp sp3 and win 7 x64. So imagine how a win xp sp1 with a 6100 would run the latest version...
I don't even want to think about it.
