I need about 3-5 people who have: - a Windows XP laptop or PC with a monitor supporting the resolution of 1680x1050 - an Xbox 360 controller that can can be connected to the computer above - a willingness to install the XNA Game Studio Redistributable and DirectX 9.0c (even for Vista) software if you don't have it already - an hour or so free to run through the test and fill out the paperwork This is for legitimate, paid ($20) research. Let me know if you are interested.
i would but i lack the controller dongle. Worst comes to worst i might be able to help seeing as the reward might buy me one.
Well, I have all of the above, but Vista on my desktop and XP on my laptop, but I'm 1440x900 and 1024x768 on my laptop.
In theory Vista should run fine, but I haven't tested it. The resolution is the immutable part. Though, depending on where you are in VA, you could come in and be tested in person. Are you close to the Metro by chance?
Im on Vista (64, so it may cause issues I guess), 1920x1200. Could probably install that stuff, have wired 360 controllers. Depends on when and such
Do you have access to a time machine then? If so then I'll steal a PC that can do all those things. :lol:
Ok, I tested it on a "clean" Vista system and it looks fine (the resolution and controller are really the only sticking points). I also confirmed that it runs on just the redistributables for XNA and DirectX 9.0c, so less software to install. You never know what I happen to be testing...
i never connected my 360 controller to the computer, so time to test it any hardware requirements? lik gfx card, cpu and so on...?
I think i fit the criteria Have a wired 360 pad i use as a PC controller, PC is a duel core athlon 4400, 2gb ram, decent gfx, winXP sp3, and a 22" samsung monitor that runs native in 1680x1050 Any good to you? DD
A time machine running Vista, knowing that it'll probably take you to the wrong date and place, probably put you somewhere where there are people with sharp or shooty things then blue screen when you frantically try to escape then helpfully say "Windows has recovered from a fault, would you like to send Microsoft a report?" as you get killed.
360 wired controller. Windows XP SP2 spanish edition. Intel Core 2 Quad @ 2.4 GHz per core. 2 GB of RAM. nVidia 8800 GTS with lastest XP compatible DirectX runtime installed.
I was about to ask how would you connect the 360 controller to the PC then remember the wired ones have a USB connector and then I remembered that I managed to palm mine off when I had to change a faulty core system over a while ago :crying:
:lol: That is so weird, that just happened to a mate of mine... God rest his soul! Would love to take part, but no wired 360 controller and resolution wrong.
