Default G-Force What Frame Rate?

Hi Guys,

I am trialling G-Force at the moment. I am a little concerned about the frane rate when it is running inside MP. I have read the FAQ about increasing the frame rate but it appears the Trial Version doesn't have the ability to adjust the vraious parameters needed.

So anybody got any idea how well G-Force will work on an AMD 3800+ (AM2), 1GB, Gigabyte 7300GT? I would rather not waste the $20USD if it isn't going to do around 30fps

Thanks!

Do not have a problem with the Visualisations except when running MP will not respond, until the track has stopped playing.
so i surmise from that, it is so DX9 hungry, it literally takes up all the pc resources.

Apparently above well known, just waiting for a FIX.

Again as rarely used, because of above problem, will not purchase until this is resolved.

Don't ask me how but G-force seems to have mucked up WMP's ability to play real media files on my machine. Installed it to try it diidn't like it cos of the reasons given by the previous poster uninstalled and realmedia splitter no longer works with wmp. Can't even get a graph in graphedit to see what wmp is up to. Bleugh!

I have a licensed version of GForce and MP responds fine during full-screen visuals (AMD 2200+ and Nvidia 6200) (?) - no problems.
