hey guys. now I know from your recommendations that I was going to struggle to get this thing to a playable frame rate but as it stands I cant even get to the pilot select screen or main hall.
I get the loading screen ok then it goes into the the intro sequence but all I get is a black screen with stuttering sound like it's buffering, playing for a couple of seconds, then buffering again. if I esc past it the screen dosnt return and i get some main hall noises. if I alt-tab out of the game and pack in I can see the pilot screen but it's unusable and it disappears after a few seconds, sofar the only way to kill the game is either do it from windows or alt-tab to the launcher and kill it that way.
selecting the Debug build in the launcher I get the following Log

OpenGL Vendor : NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL Renderer : GeForce 6600/AGP/SSE2/3DNOW!
OpenGL Version : 2.1.2
Card is getting on a bit, do you have latest drivers first of all?
-
yes according to the updater. I did wonder about the age though I figured should still be able to get away with it as WCS generally runs albeit slowly in certain missions so figured I should at least be able to get in mission.

WCS runs on a completely different engine than Diaspora. Comparison is irrelevant.
Could you try to run retail with the diaspora build ? Just to make sure whether it's an engine or modpack issue.
-
strait in with no issues on either Retail or MVP
edit
started getting the same issue in FSO but not when using the 5.5 launcher so I uninstalled the FSO wxLauncher and reinstalled it from a fresh download of 0.9.1 ingto a new directory and both FSO and Diaspora launch ok
