Does SGE work ok with Windows 8?
Wondering if Windows 8 can screw up the performance of the game.

I absolutely hate Windows 8. I've got Windows 7 on my laptop, and I'm not going to update it anytime soon.

Im running it with Win8 on one PC, Im using Stardock Start 8 which gives me a Win7 desktop and Win8. I can only get the same FPS as I did b4 with windowed mode,
I have a high-end gaming rig and get only 30 fps with full screen. I checked several of my GPU benchmark progs such as Uniengine and I get the same result as prior to
my win8 upgrade (250+ FPS at times). I run other games that are more demanding such as Arma 2 and get similar FPS as before, I can only imagine Starport is the problem.

I very much doubt Starport has been optimized beyond what was needed in order to make the game playable. That's not a knock against Toonces. Merely that once the graphics/FPS became playable there were all sorts of other things to worry about. I wouldn't ever expect it to be upgraded unless Toonces took a few months (or longer) to redo 98% of the graphics engine.Joel70 wrote:Im running it with Win8 on one PC, Im using Stardock Start 8 which gives me a Win7 desktop and Win8.
