If you cant make a decent FRAPS vid of the game on a mega-developer box at a multi-million dollar company...that might indicate you are perhaps pushing the graphics engine a bit far? Especially if release is allegedly "a few months" away?

A game engine with specs too high just kills the community size, since not as many people can try it. You can always upgrade the engine later.

The video with me and Jeff talking wasn't made with FRAPs. That's why I said check out Tira's latest video that was made with FRAPs (and the title screen also shows his system specs). Take a look at that, and add 7-10fps, and that's what you are getting on a system like his.

You could also download some of the earlier ones I did. I've been helping Tira do videos now, because he's artistically more talented, but you can see with my videos the FPS I'm getting, that I was using FRAPs, and my title screens also say with what kind of machine.

Also consider the resolution.

Another poster noted about the draw distance, and he's right. You can take the clipping plane (draw distance) in (there are 2 keys and it's in the Settings window). If you do bring down the distance to what most games have, you do indeed get 40-80fps in most scenes on an average computer all relative to how far you've brought it in.

Also, posted this elsewhere but will repeat: we have work to do with the draw distance -- right now if you watch videos you'll see things pop in suddenly. 1. we need to make that happen farther away if you have a more powerful machine and 2. we need to make it fade in and not pop suddenly like WoW does.
