Problems with Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines
I installed the game and the installation was fine. I begin to load the game and my monitor goes into stand-by mode. I can hear the music of the game, but I just can't see anything. I tried a few things from their web site and I was hoping I could get some ideas because I am really having problems with it.
My system is as follows: 1.4 ghz pentium 4 512 RDRAM Geforce 3 64mb(not Ti) Sound Blaster PC 128 Last edited by Xiangsu; 01-06-2005 at 09:50 AM.. |

I would hazard a guess and say that your computer isn't powerful enough to run the game. It runs kind of clunky on my machine at 800x600 and it's specs are:
P4 2.66 ghz 1 GB DDR RAM Radeon 9600 128 MB

In my glee of fixing the problem with the game I forgot to come back to this thread and tell you guys. Vizzini, you were right, thats exactly what I didn't do. It works, but not that well. From what I have seen of my brother playing it, the performance is terrible. We are considering getting a new computer next month, but until then he seems content with the skipping around. Thanks for trying to help |

There are tons of options to speed things up. First thing is to disable high quality sound, and environmental sound. Then reduce the resolution and details to bearable levels. All of those things combined make for a large speed increase. Ultimately, however, it's a game that demands a lot from your system...

Its your video card and slow processor, wouldn't hurt if you had more RAM too. Vampire - Bloodlines can be a memory hog.
