Cmdr. Logan Posted June 29, 2000 Report Posted June 29, 2000 >sobbing...< I thought id take a fly around the moons and the planet around Wraith HQ, and I keep getting either a black planet surface and black sky, or black planet surface and white sky. Is this normal or is something up?------------------ Commander Logan ------------------------- GCV Crazy Horse *2nd Squadron, Corsair Wing Stationed: Starbase Cerberus "When the going gets weird, the weird get professional" ICQ:(10763330) ZULU TIME -=+Wraith Fleet+=-
Grabfoot Posted October 20, 2000 Report Posted October 20, 2000 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.

Wold Posted October 20, 2000 Report Posted October 20, 2000 I don't have a problem when on surface flights with a shuttle, or using the BC, other then keeping the controls straight. 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?------------------ Commodore Wold ICV-Drakr, Spectre HQ (Antis) Commanding Officer, Spectre HQ Spectre FleetICQ 4669033 "You can only love or hate something you truly understand"

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.

Gallion Posted October 28, 2000 Report Posted October 28, 2000 Grabfoot,Your video is built into your mobo w/ 2mb of video memory. Not much you can do with it. 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.TTFNP.S. You will have a heck of a time running BCM too.

Guest aramike01 Posted October 28, 2000 Report Posted October 28, 2000 Do yourself a favor when buying such card, btw - stay away from Diamond products. They conflict with even a disabled onboard card. Their techs don't even know why that is. A Voodoo 3 works well.------------------ Vice Admiral Michael Kristophers ICV-Intrepid, Spectre (Antis) Fleet Leader Spectre Fleet Official Tester, Battlecruiser SeriesYou can only love or hate what you truly understand!
