Barleyman Posted March 3, 2001 Share Posted March 3, 2001 I solved my flickering problem. This should work for anyone with a TNT/Geforce. I bought an ATI Radeon 64MB DDR and it doesn't suffer from flickering. In fact their driver readme lists that as being fixed Feels weird not having to go back & forth to desktop to play. .. YMMV! The same card does NOT work properly in W98 for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madmatt Posted March 3, 2001 Share Posted March 3, 2001 Not sure thats a very sound econmic solution for most people. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted March 4, 2001 Share Posted March 4, 2001 Quite an ironic trade off there. Radeon doesn't have the flickering problem in Win2K, but doesn't work properly in Win98 (for this person). It also lacks fog effects in CM to my knowledge. TNT2/GeForce has a flickering problem in Win2K, but works fine in Win9x/ME. By the way, some people have had good results in reducing/eliminating flickering by selecting "Force anti-aliasing in all applications" - though that may not be a solution for everyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeAcH Posted March 4, 2001 Share Posted March 4, 2001 Forcing FSAA in all aps works like a charm on my Geforce Det 3 Win 2k system. If I turn it off, I get the transparent and flashing graphics. Even at the lowest FSAA setting, it is fixed. TeAcH 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barleyman Posted March 12, 2001 Author Share Posted March 12, 2001 FSAA kludge is not an option for TNT2-family. My TNT2 Ultra was getting a bit long in the tooth.. And since NVidia couldn't be arsed to fix the problem during several driver updates I decided to switch over to something that supports CM. There's price/performance stuff you can argue about until Stalingrad falls, but one card works with CM, the other doesn't. Which is what's important for me.
