Hey guys! my game is getting close to the full Alpha build, I'm starting to think about release, and I just realized I don't realy know how I'd figure out what my minimum specs would be...
Also has anyone got Steam achievements working with Ork? Any good guides on that stuff?

For steam achievements you can either use function nodes to call custom code (e.g. Steamworks) or write some custom nodes instead.

Do you have a laptop with integrated GPU you can test your build on? Like that puts the bar pretty low.

Or a friend with a laptop or an integrated GPU desktop or one that doesn't have a higher GPU in it? They bought a xx50 xx60 model because it said "gaming" in the ad? Just typically that's going to have a step down on CPU and RAM too probably. Compared to something that came with a flag ship card

I use the Heathen Engineering plugin Toolkit for Steamworks SDK. I picked it up during one of the sales. I use ORK schematics to call a custom function that uses their API when achievements are done in game.

Their documentation was very helpful when I was learning how to set up for Steam. Some of their docs may point you in the right direction even if you don't use their toolkit. Heathen Quick Start

Thanks for the input, I've considered buying one of those cheap 'school' laptops and using that as a minimum.. but my worry is if it's TOO bad, then I just wasted money lol
