i have 15" MacBook Pro Late 2008 2.4mhz with 2gb ram. What is the best graphic setting that i should set? its not playable if i set it to High or Ultra High.

Max screen resolution with Medium settings still slow down the game play.

what's your screen resolution and graphic setting did you set?

Thanks
 
Alright, so you say you have a late-2008 15" Pro? I think I know what your problem is...have you tried switching to the Geforce 9600? Your Pro has two graphics cards in it--one is the same one I have in the base-end 13-inch Macbook from that generation, the 9400M, and the other is the higher spec discrete 9600M GT...the computer's designed so that its easy to switch between them so you should try that then try changing your settings to higher...as it is it'll only run as well as it would on a 13-inch aluminum Macbook or one of the new 13-inch Macbook Pros

Hope this helps!
 
^yeah thats a good point.

I played it on nvidia 8800GS and by putting the shaders to medium, i could max out other settings and still get 25+ fps.

I would recommend you to do the same and also put shadows to medium. These two settings have the most performance hit.

hope this helps.
