I just picked up a copy of the original Burnout drag racing game and I have a 8mb Hercules Thriller card. The graphics (software) are awful. I know that Burnout only has hardware acceleration for 3dfx. Are there any work-arounds I can use to improve the graphics? There is a fair amount of screen garbage (previous images on screen do not disappear). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch. Paul

The game is just plain ugly. ~daxe -----------== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeeds.com The Largest Usenet Servers in the World! ------== Over 73,000 Newsgroups - Including Dedicated Binaries Servers ==-----

There was only support for the 3dfx card. The graphics are alot better in 3dfx than software mode. Not the greatest but were good. >I just picked up a copy of the original Burnout drag racing game and I >have a 8mb Hercules Thriller card.
