rich12545 Posted June 25, 2000 Share Posted June 25, 2000 Got the game today and it's every bit as good as I expected. Except for the smoke. I installed the full version, patch and mods. The smoke still goes in the air with a rectangle outlining. Anybody have any ideas? I have a k62-400, 160 meg ram, voodoo3 2000, Soundblaster 128 pci, Sceptre 19 inch .26 monitor, dx7a, all the latest drivers for everything. Running at 1152x864. Everything else seems to work great, just as fast as the demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_PanzerLeader Posted June 25, 2000 Share Posted June 25, 2000 have you got teh enhanced smoke option enabled? You may have inadvertantly disabled it - check your hotkeys ------------------ SS_PanzerLeader.......out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kump Posted June 25, 2000 Share Posted June 25, 2000 It must be the voodoo3, but I thought only the voodoo2 had that problem. My old voodoo2 had the blocky smoke and then I went to the voodoo5, which now has the high quality smoke as it should be (plus the FSAAx4 as it should be ). Has anyone else got the voodoo3 and is it blocky smoke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcelt Posted June 25, 2000 Share Posted June 25, 2000 I have a voodoo3/3000 and had the blocky smoke until I upgraded my Voodoo driver to 1.04.00. This totally remedied the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted June 25, 2000 Author Share Posted June 25, 2000 From your replies it looks like the problem might be the 2000 model of the Voodoo3. I have the latest 1.04 driver. Does anybody else have the V3 2000? Are you having this blocky smoke problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roushman Posted June 25, 2000 Share Posted June 25, 2000 I have a V3 2000 and the new drivers got rid of the blocky smoke for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted June 25, 2000 Author Share Posted June 25, 2000 I just finished reading the manual and in the troubleshooting section it says to reinstall video drivers in case a dx installation overrode the new one. It never occured to me that a dx installation could do that. So I tried it. OOOOOOEEEEEEEEEE. It worked. Not only that but everything else looks better.
