I noticed that too. It's a bit odd because all the previews of the game said that the cars did reflect. Let's wait till Friday and see. Vincent Jacquemin <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:xpPe5.130$[email hidden]...

Am I the only one to notice that unlike the scenery, the cars _don't_ reflect on the track in wet weather?

I tried that, problem persists. (so lose the snooty readme quip) It's gotta be due to My V3500... 3dfx loves to be extremely slow in updating their drivers for that card as opposed to all the other Voodoo 3's Newest drivers for V3500 = June 22nd Newest drivers for Voodoo 3's = July 21st.

Just a suggestion... Try forcing the V5 drivers on yer 3500. I ran them briefly, some say the image quality and speed improve when forcing a 3000 to use them I went to the latest release of the V3 driver once it was released Martyn_D d0le wrote:

Hey, I often times don't read it so don't talk about snooty. I think almost everyone here bypasses the readme before playing a game for the first time (I mean that file is only useful if a problem pops up), which means I think it's fair for me to assume you didn't read it when you don't say you made any attempts to fix it...you just said here's a problem and made no mention of trying to fix it...either way if you were offended by the view of my nose hairs, sorry. > It's gotta be due to My V3500... Same card as mine...I have noticed it does pop-up in the rain and overcast skies on occasion. > 3dfx loves to be extremely slow in updating their drivers for that > card as opposed to all the other Voodoo 3's > > Newest drivers for V3500 = June 22nd > Newest drivers for Voodoo 3's = July 21st. Well often times they release them right after the 2000/3000's...don't forget our card has the TV on it and about every driver update has both the drivers and VisualReality updated. Jon
