According to the readme file, there are known issues with the nVidia cards, Sound Blaster live and Audigy sound cards. What cards does Papyrus recommend? The Radeon video card and Turtle Beach sound card? -- Philippe "Philster" Sergerie
Well, hopefully if there are known issues with those mentioned cards, they will be addressed in a patch, after all they are some of the most popular cards for gamers. I didn't have any problem with the demo, with the exception of 3d sound really quieting everything down . I heard the backfires much better in 3d sound in the demo, but everything else sounded way too quiet.

Anyone know the History of FPS Football series? Sierra fixed that right up with the 12 month upgrade system! Sounds like maybe the suits are in and the enthusiasts are out :((((((( Reminds me of GP3 not working with V2s when 90% of computers had V2s. Bye!
Known issues with Nvidia Cards, and late model Creative Soundcards. So.... that means the vast majority of store and or major dealer computers (such as Dell and Gateway) may have problems with this game. I am shocked that they would release a product that may have problems on such a potentially huge part of the computer owning public. I may sound naive, but this goes beyond a "normal" early release patch. This sounds really bad. -- btgoss btgoss(my_shorts)@yahoo.com Remove my shorts to reply What you are is God's gift to you.

I read that too. But I've got no "issues" at all with my nVidia. ~J "Byron Forbes" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Same here, GF3 on a Via mobo (ABit KT7A RAID, 1.2 Ghz AMD, 512 PC133 RAM) with a SB Audigy gamer. No probs as of yet. Jim Tester <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:a4gsq7$gi5$[email hidden]...

I agree, but it's kinda worrysome (sorry if it's spelled wrong, I'm a frenchie) that popular cards are listed as a potential source of problem. I think 90% of people have Sound Blaster cards in their pc. SimRacer wrote:

Interesting that the most Popular vid and sound cards have Issues, to me that suggests it was done on purpose to get us to change/upgrade to another card.....Or they have they;re head up thier ASSES to not work that out before they sold it.......

We are talking about Sierra here. They release a game wether it is ready for prime time or not. Actually, that applies to just about every publisher in the industry. I bought a game recently called Patrician2 and when I found out it doesn't need a patch I was in shock for days. It just boggles my mind though because I'm sure they lose potential future customers every time they release a game with bad bugs. Imagine a person who does not use the internet much and buys a game with bad bugs, they won't be buying your next game guaranteed.
