Tobe Posted July 27, 2000 Share Posted July 27, 2000 Ok, I'm using the ATI All-in-Wonder 32mb video card. And the smoke effects look very good and translucent, however when I rotate the camera sometimes the smoke effects change to be non-translucent (and far more ugly). They always seem to be translucent when I'm up close, but when I zoom out a bit the suddenly jump to being non transparent smoke. Is this what is supposed to happen? I would think it should always be translucent because it just looks so ugly the other way.

Schrullenhaft Posted July 27, 2000 Share Posted July 27, 2000 Do you know what chip your All-in-Wonder is based on ? Is it a 3D Rage II/II+ (maybe with "DVD" also on it) or is it a 3D Rage 128 (which would be an All-in-Wonder 128) ? For the first one I would suggest upgrading to these drivers if you don't have them already: Rage II: http://support.atitech.ca/drivers/3drageII+.html If you happen to have the card based on a Rage 128 then upgrade to these drivers: Reactorcritical Rage 128 drivers: http://www.reactorcritical.com/download.shtml I can't exactly picture what you're looking at, but it may be normal (at least with the ATI drivers) or it may not be fixed by the latest ones. I saw some graphic anomalies with the Rage 128 Pro and the Beta Demo and the latest drivers fixed those (but they weren't related to the smoke). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
