Hello! I have the most recent 11 inch MacBook air. I used to use Mac OS X and played sauerbraten and had great performance. However, I went ahead and installed Windows 7 (64 bit), and after trying to play Sauerbraten, the game is very slow.

The FPS feels like 0.5 frames a second.. I have narrowed the issue down to this: if I turn off water reflection/refraction, the performance is pretty good, but only with shaders off. If I turn shaders on, it is very slow regardless of water settings.


Cheers, Conor.

Install graphics drivers from your card manufacturer.

Downloading any drivers from nVidia's website (even with the right card selected) says that the hardware was not found in my computer

Make sure you're looking at the Nvidia 320m drivers, if you try to install different drivers, they won't go.
