Terrain, etc

[carl]

I have the European trial version which apparently includes ToA. In the settings I can switch on Atlantis trees, but it says Altantis terrain is unavailable. Is this due to a poor graphics card or did I miss some settings?

Perhaps down to the card, which card is it? Brand and model?

It's just a nasty onboard card in my laptop. If the game can spot it's rubbish and tone down the graphics, that's fine. I take the convenience of wireless laptop play over pretty graphics any day. Do the later expansions do the same..? Can I play Catacombs etc but just with decreased graphics?

I think you'll be fine, but yes, it's most likely due to crappy onboard laptop card I have a laptop too which I used to play my bb on, but nowadays the graphic I see when I play on my laptop is.. unplayable, especially terrain bugs like you mention.

You can have the convenience of a wireless laptop and nice graphics, get a decent laptop. A dell XPS Gen II for example, one of those will compete with my desktop pc games wise
