RC2000 Graphics hassles

I have been getting lock ups and corrupt graphics with RC2000. If I use my Diamond monster Voodoo II 12Mb Card the game sometimes locks up on me and the Viper TNT Card gets corrupt graphics where all the mapping is crazy. This is getting very frustrating as I am starting to come to grips with the steering and posting some reasonable times. Also, I have a PIII 450, 128 MByte RAM, Heaps of spare disk space, and still the hard drive is getting hit at times. causing the gameplay to be stop and go for a few seconds. I am running at 600 x 800 16bit. Latest Diamond VoodooII Drivers and TNT2 Drivers. If anyone can assist with some ideas on how to fix this I would appreciate it :) Thanks Peter

I can tell you that there is a "communication" problem between the voodoo and the RC2000 code. With my voodoo 3 I have to turn off mip mapping and the rear-view mirror to get avoid frame jumping and terrible frame rates even then it doesn't always run acceptably (300mhz P2, 128 mb Ram) they are working on a fix right now - due out urgently before the first patch -- Rich "The Jackal" Senior digital animator, the Moving Picture Company Lotus cars site: http://www.jackalsforge.freeserve.co.uk/lotus.html Elise pages: http://www.jackalsforge.freeserve.co.uk/lotus.html Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
