desert-bard: I actually got it to run but the best I could do was about 5 FPS at 800x600 windowed with everything set to low. Despite what the recommendation says you need some pretty strong hardware to run this one I guess. I'll have to shelve it until I get a better setup.
This is very strange coz even my PC 19 year old can process this game much faster than you said. But it uses Win7. Maybe come compatibility problem if you use more modern OS? Not sure, what game engine log (near save folder) can help to understand.
Which OS do you use? And what about fullscreen mode? looks like local_settings.txt file deleting will not help? btw, DirectX 11 as default render system used by game.
