NR2003: A few rough edges starting to show

But not that bad...

Two main things I've seen...

1.  The corrupted graphics at the race screen.  Seems to happen mostly
on-line.
2.  A couple of quits-to-the-desktop, but rare.

I just yesterday switched to OpenGL.  I'll see if that helps any.  My fps
sure took a big jump, by 20fps or more!

Larry, if you don't list your system specs, your problems don't mean anything to anyone.  Most
important pieces are vid card, sound card, OS, and driver versions for each.

Naff driver issues, is my guess. What are your specs?

Haven't seen either so far.  Which rasterizer are you using?

I wasn't really after that aspect of it.  It was just a short report :)

Ok...  I wasn't really after troubleshooting, but here ya go :)

Pentium IV 2.53.
Ti4400.
Was running 30.89's, but trying 41.someting or anothers right now.  I'll
probably switch back as I don't really like the new design much.

The corrupted graphics have been cited by others, and it doesn't happen
enough to put a finger on.

Ive had corrupted graphics on exit a couple times.  Once it was so bad I had
to reset.  I use the 9700 Pro using cat3 latest and dx9.  I use the DX
rasterizer also. P4T533-C mobo.   I hear the next version of cats will
correct a few issues.  850e mobo Larry?  Do you use intel's app accelerator?

No, ABIT IT7-Max2.  Yes, I use the App Accellerator.
