Anyone else have flickering graphics at lower part of screen with a
Stingray using 3D Hardware and smoothing on in CPR?

Yes and it's very irritating.

I have a Jazz Adrenaline Rush card and also get the dam flicker.  Mine has
the voodoo Rush chipset and I understand this is a problem with all voodoo
Rush cards.  I think yours is a VooDoo Rush card has well.  This problem
should go away when the Glide patch comes out.

I have the problem in my Voodoo rush card too.

What is this Glide Patch ?  Maybe there is hope for this program yet!!!!! :)

and it runs pefectly on my Stingray (6mb duaghterboard setup, 1.17
drivers and no overclocking, 200MMX, 32mb SDRAM, TX m/b)

The demo and full version use exactly the same display code.

You have the latest drivers - that's why there is no flicker in the demo -
nor
will there be on the full version.

Until the others get updated drivers they may still see this problem.

It is a video card driver problem - not a CPR problem.

We are in the hands of the OEM for these issues. Unfortunately.

The nVida chipset resident on the STB Velocity 128 card also has the flicker
problem.  Since this is being reported on other cards too, I am inclined to
think it's another undocumented feature (read: bug).  Proof positive that one
should never, EVER buy version x.0 of ANYTHING from MS. <G>

it is a driver bug.  You have to download the latest drivers (if available)
from the hardware vendor.  I had the flicker with the Viper 330.  I
downloaded their latest driver and the flicker is gone.  No change to CPR.
