Loved the demo, but;
1: it seems to have less performance than Overture. Levels are alot more complex, but still annoying.
2: In the demo level, I through the box (the one you put in the box) and it went through the floor, forcing me to restart the level. I recommend adding a layer beneath the ground, checking to see if any objects enter it (if it does, than respawn them far above)
3: Can't think of anything else

So, here are the pictures.

Don't know processor
ATI x1550
1.5 gigs of ram

No back ground processes; I was a bit lazy and didn't fine tune the Penumbra settings, so I had slightly choppy framerate.
My screen resolution inside Penumbra was not fit for my computer; however this never caused any problems with Overture.

All of these glitches turned on/off depending on the angle and sources of light.
Spoiler below!

Do you have the latest drivers? If you have, it might be good to downgrade as I have noticed that the latest ATi drivers might have some problems.

I downloaded an update about a month or two ago, back when I was doing heavy work on The Shaft. Should I still downgrade? (I have no other problems with games)

Hmm not sure... It might also be worth upgrading Tongue It varies a little bit from card to card. ATIs OpenGL support can be a lil iffy. Download the latest drivers and see if that helps, if not you can just switch back to the old ones (granted you know what version you have now Smile ).

Latest ATIs, maximum everything, on an old ATI x850xt, runs as smooth as anything, here.

In fact, its the only game that I've ever turned on full antialiasing and Aniso, and not have it grind to a 1fps halt.

I would l like to update this: I decided to test out a lower resolution (800x600 My default is 1440x900) and it worked perfectly.
