It "says" it supports: Support for several APIs, including ?DirectX from Microsoft ?BRrender from Argonaut ?Renderware from Criterion Is this what is necessary to run "Rendition" mode??? Thanks! Ray [link lost in import: /~rayh]

Hello, Is there anyway possible to get a hack to use the nice beautiful rendition modes with good 3d card? Because I am a owner of a new Diamond Sleath 3D 3000 with 4mb of VRAM. Theres got to be somehow to stop the computer program from looking for the chip, only make its graphics better. If anything like that happens, I'd like to know! -- Sincerely, Mark Come and visit the page SPEED!!!!! Has great Utilities, Setups, Cars, Links, and more!

Unfortunately you don't have a good 3D card. The Virge cards are fine 2D cards, but they pretty much blow as far as 3D is concerned. It really doesn't matter as you need the Verite chip's 3D features to give you the enhanced graphics. Even if it was possible to create a software emulator to mimic a Rendition card, it would be a slideshow. -- The IWCCCARS Project: Q & A Representative http://www.theuspits.com/iwcccars/index.html http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/
That "sleath" card had me laughing for while ;-) No, like Eric said, emulating, would just be moving calculation from the CPU to the CPU. Alpha blending would kill a P400..... ;-) Mose
