I'am a Imac 24" with an core2duo at 2,13Ghz, 2go of ram and a 7600GT.

And I find the game is slow in huge map with a lot of battles !

Dom3 is an Universal Binaries for mac ? Maybe not, but it will great if developper are able to compile it for MacIntel in a patch.

Note that graphic performance always was ludicrously slow on ATI cards in comparison to NVidia.

On my 2.6ghz, 1gig RAM with an X800XT I have 9fps when running 'High Detail'.

Thankfully, fps aren't really that important in Dominions.

One reason for variance is that a successful Ermor really slows things down.

One unanswered question here, I will answer:
If you press the "f" key (for "fast-forward", natch) during battle, everything moves a lot faster. It's nice to speed up all those arcing projectiles and spells.

Ygorl,

Thanks so much! That did help with speeding up the projectile-type of spells that takes forever to cast.
