Well sorry dyson but that's lastest thing i will talk about in this topic ever again

I Have 4 gigs of ram on my laptop and 8 on my desktop i think i will be fine lol

Just a heads up on those users who are worried if the Manhattan MOD will be compatible with your PC .

Here are a few pointers to help you out in running the game smoothly ..

First thing First, You will for sure need a good Video Card to run the game pretty smoothly .

Nviadia GForce 7 series or higher
ATI HD Radeon 4200 or higher

Once you got the Video card taken care of, Next comes your internal Memory such as your RAM .

A lot of users are worried that if you have a 1GB ram you won't be able to run the game , Well that is not true . The game itself uses about 500mb of ram , So having a 1GB of ram is good . Just make sure you don't have too many process running in the background, If possible, Disable your antivirus software when running the game, You don't want the Antivirus running in the background using your CPU resource .

Open your task manager and close/shutdown any process you do not need running .
For Windows XP tried to keep it less then 22 Process running in the background
For Windows 7 and Windows Vista, Tried to have less then 43 Process Running .

Remember, that the more process you have running the more ram and CPU it will use.

Another thing you could do is to disable the Windows XP, Vista and 7 Theme, Turn it to classic theme while playing the game, you will notice a big boost in your game play ..

Remember when playing PC Game usually the most important hardware part you need is a Good Video card, a 1GB card will be good a SLI / CrossFire cards ..

I have ran the beta version of Dyson first beta release on 2 different computer a Pentium 3 old Compaq and my working computer which is usually up to date . on the Pentium 3 computer, The game ran pretty good and smoothly in medium setting with shadow disable/turnoff , That computer has a Nvidia GForce 6 card in it with 512mb of ram and 1GB system Ram ..

Of course on my updated computer, everything runs pretty fine with high setting ..

So tried to tweak your system a bit for gaming or do what I do on my old computer, Install 2 OS , your online OS with is normal installation and your gaming OS with all the tweaks available ..

If you need help tweaking your Windows System for gaming, Then you could find extremely useful information on this popular site http://www.blackviper.com/ for tweaking .

I hope this little advice will let you enjoy the game a bit more ..

I'm a computer technician in the NYC area, So if you need any advice to run the game more smoothly in your System , Feel free to send me a PM and will do my best to help anyone out ..

Sorry about that Dyson haha, got a bit carried away lol. Wow three new trucks!!!! can't wait to see them!

[rafaelmfernandez]

Yeah over the last few weeks me and dyson have had barely any time to work at the sametime because of our schedules. Im busy with school, band performances and homecoming. When I do get the chance to work we get alot done though. So the next two weeks or three me and dyson will be working mostly seperately, ill be working on new buildings, and finishing up some new trucks. If I need something from him normally I have to ask him overnight which wastes valuable time. If we both had the same schedule and time zones we would probably finish this in the next month.

Is Engine 63 from the Bronx going to be one of the engines by any chance?

[Unit 42]

Get his number and usually (i've been to england fun fun!) a whatsitcalled card and call him before 6pm NYC time so you can get to him before he goes to sleep....if he goes to sleep at 10 or 11 lol. NYC time is five hours behind england time. Can you guys do me a favor? please? Can you put E66 and L61 in there if you can? I've always wanted to see those trucks in a mod. That's the house my old friends work at. Used to call them my firebrothers lol.
