The Rogue Spear demo is out. Submit your reviews and test experiences here. Post which system you use and on which settings it runs ?smooth and where the game had problems.

On my iMac DV Se G3 400Mhz(Model 1999) it runs with 1024*768 and high textures glitch free.Only the mouse in the mission result screen moves jerky like it is in Unreal Tournament. Now you can really note differences between different solutions. The characters are looking so perfect.- I am really amazed, because on the PC of my friend they never looked so well as they do on my iMac(He has an old 300Mhz celeron so thats the reason why I guess)

I must play Rogue Spear now see ya later in GameRanger,

It hasn't finshed downloading, its only going 1k a sec cause MGF is so bogged down, hopefully i will get it downloaded before they take it off.  I played RS on a PC with a 56k and there was no lag, RS on net play is just sweet even with a 56k, hopefully my iBook should run it fine, i just hope i can get it downloaded in time, maybe someone could send it to me on ICQ if i dont Wink.  i cant wait to play it on the net, i think i'll go pre-order it.

got the demo, and just to let you know, the met is probably the worst mission in the game so if you dont like it dont worry you will still like the game. it runs ok on my non-firewire ibook even though it doesnt have 8 mb of VRAM.  Me and some 4 people tried geting it to play MP but in all the times the game just quit when some one started the game, anyone know whats worng?

Hi, the reason is easy MacSoft has forgotten to add the 3D map data so it can't work. Only cooperative works.

I tried it several times with my friend and yes MULTIPLAYER works but GameRanger doesn't has the plug-in yet so you must joinmnauelly with the IP number to port 2346. You can only play normal cooperative and terrorist hunt, that was great fun. But the game pissed me off: in 3 of 28 tries my friend got disconnected.-It seems MacSoft has to improve a lot things or maybe they only have to redo the demo more properly.

At last the few games we played together was very fun. ( Suddenly all doors opened in the main hall and 10 terrorist shot at once at your 4 man team hehehe)

I want to brings some light in the game because you can't find the new itemsRS-Hub described.

It is very simple: the Hbs Jammer, Smoke grenade and all other items that Wratch described are for Multiplayer ?Only. ?I played with them in Cooperative mod. The Smoke Grenade is a cool thing, =)

By the way if you play Multiplayer you also can choose from all terrorsits weapons like UZI AK-47 and some more.....

Is it just me or does anyone else have a problem with Rogue Spear on VooDoo 2 card? Rainbow Six was playable even if the planning screens were a bit jumbled, but this new one all the screen overlap eachother and blink wildly. It's fine once I navigate through them and get to the game but I wondered if anyone else had this problem and has found a soultion.  
Thanks!

Every time I try to open Rouge Spear, is pauses and then quits itself.  I've talked to other people who have the same prob as me too.  It also creates a file in the Rouge Spear folder that says,

OPTIONS: Reading registry key Software\Red Storm Entertainment\Rogue Spear Demo
OPTIONS: Could not read KeyMapFileNameUO file keyboard.kmp, using defaults
OPTIONS: Could not read BoundKeyMapFileName file boundkey.txt, using defaults
PickDisplay failed -6229




Anyone know how to fix this?  Oh, btw, I have a 366 iBook w/ 128 mb of ram.

hi,

I think you have MacOs 9, do you! So increase your virtuell RAM as much as the Rogue Spear Demo can get full 100 MB RAM. Then check that you have installed Open GL 1.2!

If I am honest  I don't think that these things will solve your problem but it is worth a try.

Good luck,

Mauti

I have an iMac DVSE G3400 running OS9 but my connection is too slow to even contemplate downloading the demo of Rogue Spear. I have the demo of Rainbow six and it runs perfectly smoothly, and I was wondering if the full version of Rogue Spear would run smoothly on my comp. With regard to Apples open GL 1.2, I tried installing it once and it wrecked my DVD player (version 2.0), so i had to go back to Open GL version 1.1.2. will Rogue spear run with Open GL 1.1.2?

Hi,

I have to disappoint you the game won't run as smooth as Rainbow Six did. I have the same MAc as you own and it depends very on the map you play. For example to play the bunker map with 50 terrorists is impossible the framerate drops down to one frame per second. =(

To download the RS DEmo download a tool called Monica from www.download.com . This tool allows you to stop and resume downloads.

Have a nice day,

Mauti

Actually, I can run RS at 1024x768 at High detail with Weather FX on and the Sky showing on Bunkers at around 20 FPS, but just watch when the terrorists start shooting... :-(
