Who can help me testing "kkrieger"?

Archived from groups: alt.comp.freeware.games (More info?)

Hey folks!

I found a nice looking free game at http://www.theprodukkt.com/
It calls kkrieger. I think it's a 3D FPS and the download is only 98 kB!

the file: http://kk.kema.at/files/kkrieger-beta.zip
But the min. requirements are too much for me. I cannot test it. It
doesn't run on my pc. :-(

The min. requirements are:
- CPU 1,5 GHz - 512 MB RAM
- A Geforce4Ti (or higher) or ATI Radeon8500 (or higher) graphics card
supporting pixel shaders 1.3, preferably with 128MB or more of VRAM.
(I only have an old Geforce2 card)
- DirectX 9.0 b

Can someone test this game for me, so I can put it on my free game site
(if it is good stuff)?

Thanks,
Rudy

Thanks for trying, Graham.

But don't try again. After I saw the message of MightyKitten, I cannot trust
the game anymore.

Thanks MightyKitten,

Represents that text (I mean <?xml version=... blahblahblah...</DATABASE>) the
error???
Looks like an XML file, a file for an internet browser, maybe a message that
your windows wanted to send to Microsoft.
Hmmm.. I don't trust that kkrieger game anymore.
Please stop trying, I will not put such a game at the site.

Thanks anyway

Wow!... I need to set some thins straight, I guess.

The copy pasting what I did is a XML file alright, but it is created by
Windows XP.
When something crashes in XP (And is is not realy bad) XP wants to send an
error report to Billyboy. This file is temporarely written into the TMP
directory (unitl the user hits 'Send' or 'Cancel'. I just took the contants
and copy-paste it into my message. I was to lazy to delouse (er... de-xml)
the contents. So the app has nothing to do with the report (exept being
responsible of gettign it created)

Bu now I have the microphone, I like to say that the game (though
interestingly small) is requiring to much (IMH) a big video card, Plenty of
RAM and a reasonable CPU. End even with these Items I guess it s quite
picky. So NOT displaying it on your site is a good idea.

Thanks for testing Matt
Indeed, it sounds more of an assembly demo than a game.
I don't add the game to my site.

Thanks again
