For some reason the Descent 1 movies showing you exiting the mine will play, but Descent 2's movies won't, everything is enabled and such.
If memory serves me correctly... Descent 1 didn't have movie files of you exiting the mine did it??

can anyone please show me where I can get a cool looking version of the shield?
Hopefully a nice high res version, thanks!

what are your specs, what drivers you using?

well yeah, but that's irritating and sometimes it would just go back to dark for no reason.

hmmmmm, I have the problem with direct 3d sucking in d3, it runs fine til you shoot, I'm guessing it's a sound glitch.
I'll try the beta 4.12's then try omega.

midrange usually have 128bit and higher end has 256bit. 256 effectively doubles the effective bandwidth which means if a 128bit ddr was doing 700mhz effective, it would be still 700mhz in 256 but effectively 1400. Mostly comes in handy for anti-aliasing and aniscropic filtering. and don't be fooled ...

You're exactly right Iceman, but I've found with the latest OMEGA drivers that problem has gone away. I just found drivers called DNA drivers for the radeon series and you can choose different drivers for opengl, optimized for different games, I chose halflife since it was the closest one to the ...

I have a Radeon 9800 pro, and it has that gamma resetting problem in d3, anyone know how to fix that? maybe some special drivers? I heared they are totally redoing their opengl drivers, hopefully that will fix it. but until then... I had gotten a link to a fix you could do in the sys registry, but ...

Hey, I know you HO guys are lurking around here, so I'll ask a Q that wasn't in the Q&A. :) What quality will the audio taunts be recorded in? I'd like to start recording taunts from shows and movies, but I need to know what rate and quality to use. now that's a good question! and maybe be able to ...

The beauty of a game is not directly related to the complexity of its graphics. Instead, it's related to how skilled its artists are. Whoa, now that's a deep thought :P I guess your right about that, personally I don't see much of a difference between medal of honor AA and the new 2.0 pixel shading ...

I guess I shoulda read the rest of that Q&A session before posting. but I read the part where that one dude said he thought they were using 3.0 shaders. So 1 reason I would think would be to get the cooler looking graphics. But then again you would think that that great running an engine that the ...

Ok, I don't think this has been asked, even tho I have not read all the pages to see, so I'm just gonna ask.
What kinda computer we gonna need for this game?
I'm thinking about getting a GeForce 6800, but will that be enough when this game comes out?

thanks md, that works for D2 great. the guy, or guys who did D2x did an awesome job, works great & the graphics look quit a bit better than last time I played. still can't do 1280x1024 with acceptable performance on my geforce 5800 U, lol D1 still won't work right, maybe I need that latest version ...

well thanks to d1x, it will at least start up and play, but I connot get the sound to work. any ideas on a configuration that'll work with a SB Audigy or onboard nforce sound? and it moves alot faster than 3 times on here IMO, I have a athlon 2600 machine with a geforce 5800, and even with d1x it ...

I have a new computer with win xp pro installed, but my problem is I can't play these games & I'm wondering if they don't start cause XP doesn't fully support dos? do I need to install ol Win 98 to play these classics, I've had a real bad urge to infiltrate mines & blast the crap outta some robots!

well I don't know about all those questions you just asked, probably cause I just woke up. but I just built a SATA Raid striping config & it flat out kicks ass! I read that raid doubled the performance recently, so I thought I'ld try it out & it's great. I got 2 7,500 seagate ATA 100 drives adapted ...

hmmmm, I see stuttering in d3d too, did it on my geforce cards as well. if your saying an athlon 2600+ system with 768mb 333mhz ram, aiw radeon 9700pro, audigy can't play a 5 year old game, then ok. but I have this problem, and I havent tried having no background stuff on, but I don't think that'ld ...

do these new drivers support anti aliasing & aniscropic filtering in descent 3?
I can get it to work in direct3d, but that's buggy & in open gl it don't work at all.
any ideas on what drivers do work for that?
I have a AIW 9700 pro
