Interesting how it would use the hardware acceleration on the soundcard and STILL have a loss in framerate. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com > Slot > > > "Matt & Toni" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:[email hidden]... > > In the 3d setup for F1 2000, what does "use EAX" mean?

That is why I would have expected that the 3D hardware on the soundcard would handle it. I'm glad to know it doesn't as it will no doubt save me some $$$. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. Please reply to: cisko[AT] ix [dot] netcom [dot] com

In the 3d setup for F1 2000, what does "use EAX" mean? Does that work my card harder meaning less fps, or does it help me? P2 400, Voodoo3 3000, 128 mb, SB live value. Thanks in advance folks! Warlock!

It's the surround for your SB Live card. It may give a slight loss of frame rate, or none, but it doesn't make it faster.

3D sound uses a lot of resources, so a cpu slowdown could occur. It's in some readme files for FPS games. Slot Greg Cisko <no.spam.email.for.me> wrote in message news:8d1rgn$sfb$[email hidden]...
