Ntsc / Pal
 

Hi,

Am i right in thinking that if a PC game is listed (on eBay as it happens) as being 'NTSC' that it will still run flawlessly on a 'PAL' PC?

I didn't think it mattered for PC games and PC DVD playback, but i figured i'd make sure before i spend my money.

Thanks for any help.

What's the game/link? PC games have no requirement of standards such as PAL or NTSC so I'm confused as to why they'd be advertised as such.

I assume the "format" category that states NTSC is for console games, but they just lump PC games in with them, so you have to pick something or it won't let you 'continue'. Who knows.
Every KOTOR i click on has it so i figure i better 100% sure.

PCs use neither PAL or NTSC, so you're correct; it doesn't matter

btw, if you get massive slowdown on the dantooine level in that game, put "Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=1 " into the swkotor.ini config file. That fixes it for me.
