Sorry if this has been posted already. :confused:

I have just come from the GO3 convention in Perth and they were handing this out in dvd format.

The game itself is available free from here -

Planet Calypso

I am currently installing it myself and didn't have time for a play at the show, but from the gameplay I was watching and the info the tester gave me, it seems like it could be quite good.

AND IF IT ISN'T ... IT WAS FREE :p

----------------------------------------------------------------

System Requirements Based on Graphics Quality Settings (taken from the launcher)
In the Options-Graphics window in Entropia Universe you can adjust the settings for the General Graphics Quality. This will influence the realism of the graphics but also performance. Below are the system requirements for each Graphics Quality option.

Very High Settings
Internet Connection: ADSL or better

Operating System: Windows XP or Vista

Do you use Vista and have download or installation issues?

Right click on the client software icon
Select 'Run as administrator' option


Computer Processor: Intel I7 / AMD Phenom II

Computer Memory: 4096 MB RAM or more

Graphics Card (with latest drivers): NVIDIA GeForce 285 / ATI Radeon 4870 or better

DirectX: Version 9.0c

Sound Device: Direct X compatible sound device

Screen Resolution: 1024 x 768 pixels

Hard Drive Space: 10 GB of free space




High Settings
Internet Connection: ADSL or better

Operating System: Windows XP or Vista

Do you use Vista and have download or installation issues?

Right click on the client software icon
Select 'Run as administrator' option


Computer Processor: Intel Core duo or AMD Athlon 64 X2 Series or better.

Computer Memory: 2048 MB RAM or more

Graphics Card (with latest drivers): NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Series or better / ATI Radeon 2900 series or better.

DirectX: Version 9.0c

Sound Device: Direct X compatible sound device

Screen Resolution: 1024 x 768 pixels

Hard Drive Space: 10 GB of free space




Medium Settings
These requirements should be considered the minimum system requirements for Entropia Universe:

Internet Connection: ADSL or better

Operating System: Windows XP or Vista

Do you use Vista and have download or installation issues?

Right click on the client software icon
Select 'Run as administrator' option


Computer Processor: Intel Pentium 4 2.8g hz or AMD Athlon 64 Series or better.

Computer Memory: 2048 MB RAM or more

Graphics Card (with latest drivers): NVIDIA GeForce 7800 Series or better / ATI Radeon 1900 series or better.

DirectX: Version 9.0c

Sound Device: Direct X compatible sound device

Screen Resolution: 1024 x 768 pixels

Hard Drive Space: 10 GB of free space




Low Settings
If your system falls below the Medium Settings requirement you may still be able to participate in Entropia Universe, but your visual experience will be hampered. If you use Medium Settings on a system below Medium Settings requirements, you may suffer from low frame rate. If you use Low Settings, there may be artifacts such as white texture-less avatars, no ground vegetation, short draw distance and no shadows.

Please note that support is not given on technical issues deriving from a computer that only handles the Low Settings.


Special Notes
SLI and Crossfire are supported.

Please ensure that you have the appropriate SLI/Crossfire drivers for your operating system.


N.B. As the Entropia Universe is under continual development, system requirements may change over time.

@Solaris17 hahaha that is pretty much what I said to the tester ... they were running the game on a 32" LCD TV plugged into some gaming laptops .. one of them being the MSI GX720 ... I asked him if it was maxed out and he said the laptop wouldn't handle it lol ... he showed my anyway and it lagged a little :p
