I'm on XP home 32 bit with only 4gb ram and 1gb video memory. Using SoD client with no wineq or anything I am able to load up and play 6 toons. Getting loaded in sucks sometimes, but once they are all in, it goes very smooth. I do have some of the textures an spell particles turned to low but not off. I also play with all Luclin models on. If I turn all particle effects and Luclin models off, I can load 18 at a time, still without wineq.
You are doing it right. Continue on citizen.
