My system: Gigabyte 7DXR Athlon 1200 256 MB DDR GeForce2 MX 400 64MB At last I could install GPL in my system (doing a new Fat32 partition!!!!). I've installed D3D patch, and I could play @ 1024 with a good frame-rate, but I can't check "antialiasing" on the configuration screen, and the car's wheels aren't rounded... How could I check antialiasing??? Should I change any parameters on the properties of my GeForce2?? (I use NVMax) Thanks a lot!!! (I'm spanish, and my English is a little poor...)

You can't check it here. That was an option for the (now ancient) Rendition graphics card that GPL support. >Should I change any parameters on the properties of my GeForce2?? (I >use NVMax) Yes. If you select it here you will have FSAA in GPL. Ian -- Ian Riches GPL Rank +1.76 Monsters of GPL +284.19
I have never seen the AA box high lighted. I'm guessing that its a rendition thing since I've ran GPL with a 3dfx card and in D3D. If you want to use AA you need to set it in the video card driver either in the display properties or with a tweak program like NVmax. Personly with your system I'd just crank up the screen res. I'd go to at least 1280 x 1024 maybe higher depending on the level of add ons you are using. Now even the best hardware in the world won't make the original GPL look all the good. So if you have not gotten any of the redone cars and track graphics thats where you'll wanna start. I'd give you some links, but I'm at "work" and I don't have them here. MadDAWG

The in-game antialiasing control doesn't seem to work. Turn on the Nvidia Quicktweak setting in your Nvidia drivers page and then set the anitaliasing from the Quicktweak icon in your system tray.

The in game anti aliasing box only works for voodoo cards (I think) Go to control panels > display and set it in there. Usually in the additional properties bit. Kev

The only good framerate is 36 fps, don't accept anything less. The reason you don't get round wheels.....is the detail slider that you'll find on the graphic options screen, on the left side? If so, try to move it somewhat to the right. Remco

Okay, so the Detroit Tigers finally won a game. But is 1-11 *really* something to get excited over...? Remove SPAM-OFF to reply.

Another thing i can think of....did you put the values in the CORE.INI, as mentioned in the readme3D.txt you'll find in the GPL main directory? Remco
yes. I think that I wanto to see GPL as F1 2001 and that's impossible ;) Thaks!!! -- Gonzo 8?) [email hidden] (quita "tilolilo" pa escribir)
