Well.  Adding 2gb memory didn't help much.  Junkyard very hard to navigate.  Oh well, back to Arcanum and Temple of elemental evil for the laptop.

Slight error on my specs.

it's an Intel 945GM express chipset :(

I was very happy and surprised too that it worked.  GF not happy though, now I have something else to play with in bed ;)

Just tested the game on my old laptop.

Toshiba A110-233
512mb memory
Intel GM956 integrated graphics - max memory 128mb
Windows XP SP3

Movement around the areas I've explored is quite smooth, except in the Cantina where movement becomes nigh impossible :- very stuttery/takes ages to select npc and talk.

Fighting is  stuttery, not as bad as Cantina area though.

Still have a lot of areas to explore and will report any unpleasant effects.

Going to add another 2gb of memory next week and check the results.  I'm hoping that the extra memory will expand the graphics memory but it's probably fixed in Bios settings that Toshiba set :(

- Collectable journals/documents was something I considered in the past, but decided against as it would be too much work; just writing dialogs keeps me pretty busy. Also, I'm not disclosing what happened to the world yet

I can see where you got the idea for Old Jonas from.  Keeping all the important stuff back  ;D

Under interface in game options what does 

SCT Duration do/mean and just below that Time Duration?

Sorry if it's so obvious, I'm missing it :(

Thanks.

EDIT:  Ok I found out what they do.

I enjoyed the fallout series and this is in the same kind of mould.  I am enjoying playing the Alpha version and being Alpha I expect there will be changes, things added/taken away.  For

I think Styg said in a Facebook update that he added running outside combat. I don't see the reason to change the sprint feat into a running option though because it doesn't actually make you sprint, it just increases your movement points temporarily.

Ok.
I agree no need to change Sprint Feat if running outside combat is available.  I noticed that you could use the sprint Feat outside of combat which sped up movement and thought that that was one way of implementing running, as I read in some post on here about too much time constraint on animating running and the sprint Feat would solve that problem.  I am going to have to check my version.  Only bought the alpha a couple of days ago and GamersGate could be using an outdated version.

Things I'd like to see.  Some of these may already be implemented, others might not be possible. only played about 6 hours :)

Maps. 
Animation/blue light during bio scan.
Changing the sprint Feat to a run option instead and then incresing the Sprint Feat to compensate.
Rest/sleep to recuperate health/psi.
Collectible books/journals explaining the background/history of how the human race came to live underground.

Will add more as I think of them.

Like to add my congrats too.

Just had my first real giggle when naming the 'hoppers'.

I wish I had a magical wand and could make this game ready for release, like yesterday.

Hopper collection Mission

South Gate Sentry: If you haven't already, be sure to talk to Old Jonas at the Crossroads.  He knows more about the creatures lurking the caves than anyone.

'He knows more about  the creatures lurking 'in' the caves than anyone.'

Would it be easier if I collected a list or shall I just keep posting as I find spelling/grammar errors?

Wondering if it is possible to add a small description to the door icon that shows up when you hover over a red/blue map transition border explaining what area you are moving to?

End of First Mission.

Hadrian Tanner: Also, Gorsky has lead an expedition
 into the nearby GMS compound and he requested you specifically join them there.  Go the station platform exit and talk to Essie.

'Go 'to' the station platform and exit and talk to Essie.'
