READ FIRST! Tropico 5 requires a DirectX 11 graphics card!
重要！海岛5需要一块支持DX11的显卡！

PLEASE CHECK IF YOUR SYSTEM MEETS THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS BEFORE PURCHASING THE GAME OR REPORTING ISSUES!
在购买游戏或者汇报问题之前请检查你的系统是否满足最低需求。

DirectX 11 support is needed at hardware level, which is why the minimum requirements list graphics cards that have specifically been tested and confirmed to run Tropico 5. For some models (Radeon 4000 series), hardware level 10.1 does suffice, for some others, it doesn't. It also heavily depends on the driver - please make sure you're running the very latest driver available from your graphics card manufacturer if you're experiencing graphical errors and corruption.
本游戏需要硬件对于DX11的支持，这也是为什么我们公布的最低需求中详细列举的经过测试的显卡。有些版本的显卡，即使是DX10的，也可以运行游戏；而另外的一些则不然。同时，驱动的版本也十分重要——如果你遇到任何显示问题请确保你是在运行最新版本的驱动。

If your graphics card does not support the required hardware features, the game may not start at all or display graphical errors.
如果你的显卡没有达到硬件需求，游戏可能无法运行或者出现显示问题。

Having DirectX 11 software installed is no guarantee that your graphics card meets the minimum system requirements. Updated Windows versions which meet the game requirements (Vista SP2 and above) are running DirectX 11 in software.
拥有对DX11的软件支持并不能保证你的显卡满足最低需求。升级你的系统以达到DX11水平只不过是在软件层面运行了DX11。

This is the reason for listing specific graphics card models in the minimum requirements:
- Nvidia GeForce 400 series or higher
- AMD Radeon HD 4000 series or higher
- Intel HD 4000 series or higher
这也是我们为什么在最低需求中详细的列出了具体的显卡型号。
型号略

There are no plans to add support for older graphics cards. The game and engine were redesigned from scratch as was requested by many players. The technical modernization calls for new hardware as with many new games. Tropico 5 ist not an exception. The game in its current form would not have been possible on deprecated DirectX 9 hardware and this does not affect visual quality only.
我们没有打算添加对于旧版显卡的支持。如许多玩家请求的那样，游戏的引擎是完全重头开始设计的。如同其他的游戏一样，技术的发展要求新的硬件。海岛5也不会例外。在旧版的DX9硬件上不可能达到游戏目前的状况，并不仅仅是画质层面。

1INTEL HD4000+ 是特定的高端cpu才有，和INTEL hd graphic不是一码事
2运行dxdiag所显示的DX11，是指系统对于DX11在软件上的支持，WIN7以上都是支持DX11的
3海岛5需要显卡硬件支持DX11，某些比较强的显卡虽然是DX10，但是也可以运行游戏
4很多人的笔记本显卡，比如500M之类，他的性能比台式的500是要差很多的，导致也不能玩
5N卡驱动建议不要更新beta版337，337会导致某些进程消耗大量资源，没有确定，只是建议
