about that patch:it simply forces the game to use SW T&L instead of HW T&L,so it should work on ANY card.and you dont need hypersnap for pictures,just hit printsreen;).I used hypersnap only to convert the screens to *.jpg format.5meg large *.bmp file is nothing you can post here:D

and one more screenshot: the way you make me wheel:D

I simply noted that the documentation said it was a patch for a couple of Intel chip sets. I tested it on a different Intel chipset under W2K, and I have since tested it on an AMD system under XP. It worked on both but only in windowed mode under XP. I quite liked the square wheels myself. Like you I found that it sometimes doesn't load in fllscreen mode on W2K.

voodoo4?have a 2 GHz or better CPU,use 800*600 and you will be fine.(I can play the game in single chip,runs slower but still playable;))

this is my MatrixConfig.ini :
[RENDERING]
RESOLUTION=0
GAMMA=200
BRIGHTNESS=100
CONTRAST=100
FULLSCREEN=1
DISPLAYSHADOWS=0
MAX_LOD=-1
DITHER=0
ALLOW_GAMMA=1
ALLOW_WINDOW_GAMMA=0
MULTISAMPLE=0
FILTERING=2
FILTERSAMPLES=0
LODBIAS=0
FARCLIPBIAS=30
PARTICLEDENSITY=0
PARTICLEMINIMUM=3
FRAMERATE_BEHAVIOR=0
SAFEMODE=0
[CONTROLS]
MOUSE_SENSITIVITY=50

is there a way (or an ini config) to get more speed (FPS) in game?


i've tried with my v4 4500 in winXP + SSFT alpha14 and it doesn't start when i set FULLSCREEN=0 (nothing happen)....
althought in full screen, after u load a level, the game closes itseft.... so i can't play it.

PS: in win9x with EVO's is all right[B)]

Run Set3Tile.exe and then restart your machine and try it. You may be running out of texture memory.

ok, i´ll try :)

so, this files free texture memory?
* Amigamerlin 3.1\Set DX Mode\Set3Tile.exe
* Amigamerlin 3.1\Set DX Mode\Set4Tile.exe

PS: what´s the difference on both files?

Set4Tile is the default it reserves memory for a 3 buffer flip chain. Set3Tile only reserves enough for 2 buffers in the flip chain. It uses the memory as texture memory.

..does the game work when you use the FOCUS ability (xp/2000)? menu corruption is not a problem,but as long as you cant use FOCUS,playing the game is pointless..

ggab

for me?

Yes, i can. (not at full speed, but it's OK [:p] )

If you are trying to load it fullscreen under Win2k. it often fails to load, if you perservere it works eventually you need to have run Set3Tile and rebooted first. Set3Tile should be in the Driver2k subdirectory of the driver directory. You can edit the config file for the game to set fullscreen off and run in a window that should work every time.

What's exactly the problem with the full screen mode ?
