Screamin'3D / N2 Problem

by Getz » Wed, 02 Apr 1997 04:00:00

Help!

I installed a Screamin' 3D card in a Dell 200MHz MMX system with 32MB RAM
and it works great with the Rendition versions of ICR2, Quake, and Silent
Thunder, but *not* NASCAR 2!

In the regular version of N2 I get about 25 fps (guessing - is there a way
to check?) with all options on and 39 cars displayed in front. With the
Rendition version, I get anywhere from 3-10 fps if there are a lot of cars
on the screen (such as when leaving the Pits during practice). With only
two or three cars other cars on the screen, the frame rate improves
dramatically. Yet the action is jumpy for no apparent reason at certain
points on the track.

I have tried reinstalling N2 and the Screamin' 3D software with no luck.
Everything but N2 works great!

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Jim

Are you running the RendDMA version of N2?

Are you using the renddma.bat to begin N2?
