    lol nope there isn't any cursor when i hack computers either :p It doesn't perform the greatest, probably a bit under 30fps at times, but the new moves are reallly fun to perform :) like the one where he peeks around a corner and grabs the guards :p

    well i have the full version and it still runs like crap, i turn on standard instead of Next Gen, Start a new game, goto options and wholla Next Gen is ticked and Standard is unticked, its a fricking joke!

    Yeah its says Unreal Engine, and im pretty sure if it was the Unreal 3 Engine they would of stated so for bragging rights.

    im struggling to get into this game, it feels clunky and not like the other SC series, and OMG swimming is a nightmare, infact on the first level i started to get motion sick, i hate games that make me feel like this, i wont be buying it i dont think, im gutted cos i was really looking forward to this game, i bet its 100 times better on the Xbox 360 and much easier but as i dont have an Xbox i wont be playing it on one.


    i tell you what though as somone else pointed out these big companies are screwing us with these half arsed buggy mediocre games, im really beginning to think that pc gaming is coming to an end because these money grabbing companies are focusing to much on consoles.

    Can anyone remember how you felt when you played HL1 for the first time, how it sucked you in like a really good book, it blew me away and i needed to play it every waking hour and how long the game lasted and how good the graphics and sound were for there time, well i havent had gamplay come anywhere close since HL1, even HL2 didnt suck me in like the first one. But i always think this game could be the one but it never is, im hoping now Alan Wake is everything it looks.

    Ok ive stopped ranting now......lol

    Anyone know how to alter graphics settings manually and not in game cos the ingame keeps resetting itself back to Next Gen.

    Hmmmm so im thinking poorly optimised, oh and i have the full game, but like i said earlier i change settings to standard, start a new game or load a saved game, it runs like sh*t so i goto display settings and low and behold the fricking things gone back to Next Gen.

    Yeah it was running liek pure crap for me also. But I fixed it, run the game, open task manager and disable one of your cores.

    My framerate incresed 10 fold.

    Go to the Splinter cell 4 directory and open the splintercell4.ini with notepad and modify some settings in the ini file with 'False' or 'True' just like in other unreal tournament2003/2004 engines.

    Do some tweaks in the splintercell4.ini and you can get very nice framerates, even at higher resolutions.
    For example disable the HDR and specular lighting.
    Or use simple shaders and simple SFX. These settings will speedup things alot!


    By the way: someone ask if SC4 uses the Unreal3 engine. Well, I think it uses an upgraded Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory engine, i.e. unreal '2.5' engine.

    edit: according to Unrealwiki, 'Double agent' uses build 3323 of the unreal 2.5 engine (Builds 2500-3369). http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/wiki/Unreal_Engine_Versions


    Good luck with the tweaking!

    I see corrupt textures of Sam, everything else looks good but he looks all messed up, kinda like a Spider. Must be a 8800 series flaw. I'm using No AA as well.
