N4 2002 not working right

by The Unkown Soldie » Mon, 31 Dec 2001 14:06:37

I just installed the N4 2002 demo and I am having some weird problems.

I am running XP Pro with a GF3 and a P4 1.5 gig.  I have the latest XP
drivers (nVidia 21.83) for my GF3.

When the setup prompts me to select the video a Renderer I can only select
Direct 3d from the menu (what happened to OpenGL?) . Then I have two choices
under Display Adapter: NVIDIA Geforce 3 and NVIDIA Geforce 3 TnL HAL.

When I go to run the game its running in software mode. There is no 3D
acceleration at all. The graphics are super grainy and my FPS is like 15-20.
WTF is going on? N4 runs fine for me and I just installed that to XP a
couple days ago.

Nice going Papy.......

I have a newly build Athlon XP1600 ( 1.4 ghz), GeForce3 Ti200, 512 mb ddr
ram, running on a 266 mhz fsb ( 133 mhz core).
My framerates are in the mid 20's. I was shocked.
Hopefully this is a crude demo that the graphics haven't really been tweaked
hard for fps. If not, well I still love my flight sims. And F12001 of
course.
