What effects will this event have on BC in the future, if any? Look at http://www.3dfx.com/ for current details. ------------------ Cmdr. Faralonia Caste: Trader UCV Vendeatta History, is made at night..Character, is who you are in the dark.

Video on the mobo equals zero in performance and HP is worse than Compac in this department IMO and experience. Suggest ye heads over to Best Buy near Walmart and get a new PCI v-card. Saw several 2d/3d that were less than a Franklin. Install it in a free PCI slot and then disable on-board video in you system BIOS. TTFN P.S. You will have a heck of a time running BCM too. Food fer thought. Just got a Vodoo3 PCI card. Sweeet. Thank you, Gallion. ------------------ Cmdr.

Logan and Grabfoot, could you please post your system specs, ie, what video card do you have and how much memory does that card have? Are you running BC3K 3dfx or the standard BC3K? Sorry it took so long, but I can not seem to nail down the game card my PC came with. The HP techs offered what I had already found: a web page with my 'puters original specs. Duh. One would think this was a simple question. If you can help ferret the specific game card info out, the specs link is here: http://support.hp.com/showpage/cat_id/3034...868.html#P7_202 I've upgraded RAM to 128, the system to Win98 SE, and added an additional 40 gig hard drive. ------------------ Cmdr.

I've shaved one too many mountaintops off planetside. Also, when I use the o button, I don't leave orbit! Auto p is on. I seem to be having a problem with Thrust as well ::sigh:: I'm having a ball, but the fix for this seems to escape me. I'm using a Microsoft Sidewinder joystick. 8 buttons, most useless here ::smirk:: Any impute appreciated for this eager student. I thought I had mentioned using the o button on my original post. Seems I had. ------------------ Cmdr. Faralonia Caste: Trader UCV Vendeatta History, is made at night..Character, is who you are in the dark.

quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: You can also leave the planet by pressing O when above 45K feet. I guess you didn't see that in the manual either, Grabfoot? :::clears throat:::: Yes, I did read that in the manual. The o command didn't work in this particular game. Hence the altitude question. ------------------ Cmdr. Faralonia Caste: Trader UCV Vendeatta History, is made at night..Character, is who you are in the dark.

I have also have color variations during planetfall & orbit. Also, when switching from TACOPS (or another system) to BRIDGE, for a moment the view is daylight, then it snaps to nightsky. No, I didn't cross the terminator into night, it did it each time I switched. :/ Bug, or currupted game? ------------------ Cmdr.

There leftclick on Moon. press Esc, after all -> Engage Autopilot.... I too can not get to the Moon. I followed the posted advice here. Weapons off, autopilot on, and used Navitron 'to Moon'. As I approach the jump gate, my ship veers away from the gate and re-approaches. It continues to veer off everytime. Any suggestions? ------------------ Cmdr.
