What I meant was the fact that they run on the same engine, relatively, so why would one game have problems while the other doesn't. Of course, that point went right over your fucking head while you kept on charging down the same line of thought like a mule with blinders.
I'm guessing, and this is only a freaky-deaky totally out of left field guess I'm just free associating here, but Troika didn't get the Source engine (and this is the important point here) beamed straight to their hard drives upon shipment of HL2 in its finished state to be immediately co-opted to their game and then released. They got the engine awhile back so they could, you know, make their own game out of it, and were beyond that disallowed to release their game prior to HL2's upon threat of legal action. This in no way excuses the hoiky-joiky Vamp experience as is (however, like fahbs, my midrange rig plays the game fairly well post-patches with some minor Options tweaks), but your Big Question of the Day is threatening to go unanswered for you, CO, and FUCK WE CAN'T HAVE THAT.
