System Requirements?

DeckOfManyThings · August 18th, 2013, 12:33 PM

Does anyone know off-hand the system requirements for Realm Works. I did some searching and couldn't find anything.

Basically I just want to see if an ancient laptop can run RW (like Windows XP)

Realm Works requires XP and higher. The product is rather resource intensive, so an "ancient laptop" may lack the horsepower to run the product efficiently enough for your preferences. It depends on your definition of "ancient".

Hope this helps!

I have a netbook that I use for gaming that is fairly current, around say 2010ish. Do you think it would run on that, assuming windows xp home?

Now, with an updated for .NET 4.0 WINE, do you think I could reasonably run RW on the same netbook running Ubuntu?

My netbook was of similar vintage, and it struggled. I bought a new computer.

Has anyone tried Realm Works on Windows 8 yet? And if so, how did it work?

I've run a couple sessions with it, and it works reasonably well (the problems are all with Win 8 being frustrating, not with Realm Works).

I have it on a 7 and 8 machine and it works fine on both.

I run Realm Works on Windows 8 and it works fine. The one thing to remember is that Windows 8 does this annoying thing where the scaling defaults at 125% magnified, which made all of programs (not just Realm Works) a little wonky. I changed it to 100% and everything was back to normal.
