F1RS/Weird graphic glitches????Anybody???

by deus » Mon, 06 Apr 1998 05:00:00

My setup is AMD K6200 Diamond Stealth 2000 and Monster 3D,I've seen this
kind of thing before in Psygnosys' F1 Motoracer and especially in that Honda
bike demo.Most of the games like Turok,  Quake II, Redline racer, NHL and
NBA '98 and NEED FOR SPEED II SE all work fine and look great,but now this
***is trying to ruin my enjoyment of F1RS, The best thing I can do is show
you so if you don't mind go to http://www.racesimcentral.net/
look at those lines around the trees,wheels and in the sky, Has anybody seen
this before and do you know how to fix it. Thanks.

P.S. I tried to describe this to Diamond's tech support and Psygnosys' guys
a while back,but they had no clue.

I forgot to mention that I have all the latest drivers for both cards and
I've already tried the 1.08 patch.

   Hate to tell you but it seems we're all stuck with it. I emailed Ubi
about this and they said it will be fixed in F1RS II :((((((.

I have a Diamond Stealth 3d and Diamond Monster 3D and I am experiencing a
number of glitches with F1RS too, although none as pronounced as those
shown on the web page. My glitches seem to concentrate on the colour white,
which occasionally flickers into a sort of white/yellow haze.
In addition, and this really bugs me, if I start a race, save it and then
return without leaving the game, the sky disappears and I'm racing at
night.
Seems like another patch could be called for.

So I assume you are getting exactly the same kind of graphic garbage around
trees as I am.I find it hard to believe that everybody is experiencing the
same thing though, as I haven't seen anybody post anything about this
before.
Hopefully we'll get more feedback about this,maybe getting a Voodoo2 board
would eliminate this.  http://www.deusx.com/f1rs.html

   The black outlines in D3D are common knowledge for regulars of ras.
It is not an issue with the voodoo version. I suppose the best I can
make of it is that it's better than no D3D at all. When you get down to
business it's not really that big a deal. I think the "flaps" on the
edges of the tyres is even worse and was very disappointing.

I heard about this in D3D version,but these pictures I posted on the webpage
are from the Voodoo version and in Monaco these lines actually obstruct my
view because trees are close to the track and I have these things "hanging"
from them covering about half [ if not more ] of the road.

so far all he knows is thst he's never seen anything like that on a Voodoo
board.

   I'm not sure but I think that is a driver issue. Been here

 or here http://www.ubisoft.fr/f1racing/f1racing.html
