Hello, I've just bought TD4 and I have to say I am greatly disapointed. I have believed all the good comments seen on Internet and I must conclude that the product is not so great: - The 3DFX mode does not work without any error message, just a black screen. But the sim continue to run in the background. - There is no***pit mode just like those console games. I have a P90 with 32Mb and a diamond Monster 3D which works great with Flight Simulator 98. But I know that with TD4, the Monster 3D is driven with Open GL and not Direct 3D. If someone can help...

Have you got the latest GL drivers? I had to download them, 'cause I had the same problems you did.. After installing the new set, it worked fine.. I was still disappointed, though.. Ben -={ To get my real email address, remove the NOSPAM }=- SPAMMERS!!! Read this!!! No spam for me! Unwanted, unsolicited commmercial email WILL be dealt with.. And, why the hell do you even bother sending the shit if you don't include your own return address?
