pops Posted July 5, 2000 Share Posted July 5, 2000 Around explosions and smoke effects I see black boxes....I have a 16 meg 3dfx Banshee card and I don't have this problem with any other game.....is there a fix for this? On the spec requirements they say a 3dfx card is needed......... thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John-SJ Posted July 5, 2000 Share Posted July 5, 2000 I suspect that the problem is with the video card driver. With this type of problem, it usually is. Make sure you have the most recent driver from 3dfx. John-SJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sten Posted July 5, 2000 Share Posted July 5, 2000 I used to have the same problem. But to celebrate the release of the full version, I bought a second hand TNT2 to replace my old Voodoo2 enhanced Diamond Viper 550. The TNT2 showed smoke the way it should be. If you have the latest drivers and latest DirectX, then I think this is a very economical alternative, even if I don't think it will be necessary. Check the drivers on your system first of all.

Papa Khann Posted July 5, 2000 Share Posted July 5, 2000 pops, I have a 16 meg 3dfx Voodoo 3 2000, and I had the exact same problem until I downloaded the up-to-date driver. Now it all looks great, smoke included. Papa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
