downloaded it from the stable windows version, as I've said I tried messing with the graphic settings, but now it's even worse. I'm thinking about deleting it again with my settings and saved game *which will suck because I already have 3 working bases and am using plasma weapons
* and reloading the whole game. My laptop is a Sony Vaio built out of the box for gaming, it runs Oblivion with graphic enhancers fine, I don't know it's specific specs but I bought it over a year ago and it runs windows 7 and has a 287 GB Hard drive
Edit: Okay I tried it and now I have massive lag on on missions and now the envirorments are almost all blacked out, I didn't have these problems when I first installed this game.
