Title: Probably a stupid question but, I'll ask ?
Post by: Boozebag on May 07, 2007, 12:53:02 PM

Is there some way to download film viewer without downloading the whole game? I read the forum mostly on my laptop but play on my PC. Laptop really isn't capable of handling the game for play. Would be great to be able to check out films from laptop without using up extra space needed for whole game. Any way to do this? Appreciate any help.

I'm pretty sure that at one time I have the film viewer on my laptop,  check out the downloads section of the web site .

hope this helped.

Thats a negative to my knowledge. If your laptop can't play the game, I seriously doubt it will run the film viewer.

Film viewer takes a lot less resources to play back films than the game does to run it in the first place

However, I don't know if a low-end system would be able to, if it can't run the game in the first place.

However, to answer the first part of the question, no you can't separate the film viewer from the game. The viewer uses the files from the game itself.

I wondered about this also. Thanks for clearing it up guys. I read the BBS at work during lunch and wanted to be able to view the films.

I won't download the game on my work computer for obvious reasons:rofl

Thanks guys,
Laptop's video drivers don't support Z-Buffering, whatever that is, so the game doesn't run. Appreciate the help though.
