bouis Posted October 29, 1999 Share Posted October 29, 1999 Sorry if this has already been posted, i tried my best to search for it. I recently downloaded the demo, thought it was pretty cool, but i couldn't figure out how to configure my hardware, and the performance was pretty poor. FYI, I've got a p2 @ 338mhz, 128 megs of ram, an abit LX motherboard, a TNT 1 with a pair of voodoo2 12mb's (sli), running windows 98 with directx 7 and the latest drivers as to my knowledge. I'm just wondering, is the game 3d accelerated? How would i configure the card i want to use for the game? I couldn't find any video configuration screen or option or even reference in the readme. btw: great game. looking foward to the final version. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted October 29, 1999 Share Posted October 29, 1999 One of the elements of Beta Combat Mission that still needs work is the sensing of a computer's 3D hardware. You've got a pretty funky setup there with a TNT1 and a double Voodoo as well, and I suspect CM is getting a little confused. For some reason I think you're not getting hardware acceleration right now. So for now, I suggest setting your monitor to a lower resolution (maybe 800x600?) and see if things speed up.

bouis Posted October 29, 1999 Author Share Posted October 29, 1999 you mean there's no way to configure it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted October 29, 1999 Share Posted October 29, 1999 Not directly, at least at the moment. Remember it's just a beta. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingtiger Posted October 29, 1999 Share Posted October 29, 1999 Bouis, That was my identical configuration prior to replacing those three video cards with just a TNT2. Anyways, pop the top, pull those voodoo-2's out and play some CM. If your set-up is confusing the game, then it will be well worth the effort. when you want to restore the 2 Voodoo-2's just reinsert them and windows will restore the drivers. It will be truly plug and play and you will be way OK. Richard Kalajian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
