i guess in time raven will tell us
there's not much to tell, ESF will require SSE2, simple as that.Therefore some ppl will have to upgrade their CPUs. A SSE2 compatible CPU is like 5bucks on Ebay and the Steam Hardware survey states that 98.9% and increasing have SSE2. Therefore we will use it as it provides way faster math functions. Anyways that's not the topic so stay on it.

Basically to put the story short. Spunky wanted to proove with this survey that the majority of people dont have SSE2 CPUs saying if thats the case we have to remove the visual stuff. But im sure the results speak for themselves.

Well, I don't think it's much to ask that ppl run an even semi modern CPU. I mean mine is now several years old and runs SSE3. Slightly newer ones than mine run SSE4. ESF is more or less a modern game on an old engine. Ppl shouldn't expect to run it on comps from ten years ago, or low enders from 5-6 years ago.

My Core 2 Duo is an old model even though I have a high-end PC so it doesn't handle SSE4. Most these days do have SSE3 and SSSE3, though.

I forgot about this thread. o_O

it was just spunky being spunky
Meaning what exactly? I'm only trying to help. Troll more.

The only point I was trying to make was that people whose CPUs don't support SSE2 are going to get screwed over, much the same way they did with NNK (who have yet to release a patch x_x). I'm not arguing with the results of this thread, I'm just saying that you're going to see most of the people without support for it speak up only after the mod is released, when the 6+ years they've been following the mod comes to a crashing halt in the form of a runtime error. I didn't even know what the error was while I was a beta tester, it was seemingly that obscure.

More people have posted on the NNK forums about lack of SSE2 support (I counted about 20 at the time of release, including myself, and it's probably up a bit from that by now) and are completely unable to play that mod. I'd just like to be able to play 1.3. That's all.

It's a tad unreasonable to expect to play a new game properly with a CPU that is about 8 years old (in the case of AMD chips, 6 years ago). You can buy a decent new computer for about $300-$400 that would destroy your old one. If you have spare parts around (PSU, case, HD etc) then you can cut that pricetag in half.

It's very unreasonable to expect the ESF team to drop almost every visual enhancement they've worked hard on for years just because 10% of this forum does not have the hardware to play it.

Raven said he could switch it to use SSE, so I don't see why he wouldn't. I don't think it's unreasonable not to want to spend $400+ to play a Half-Life mod, especially when you've been supporting the mod for 8 years.
