Hey everyone. I just rec'd my free copies of Viper racing and SODA from Chris C. Thanks Chris. My questions, I cannot get SODA to run higher than 640x480. I have a GF2 and whatnot, does it have problems detecting a card so new?? I haven't had time to really play them lots, but they both seem like fun games. Can someone also direct to me some links that offer upgrades, patches and add-ons as well for both games??? TIA Verne

No 3DFX/D3D/OGL support at all for SODA. You're stuck in Software rendering unless you have an ancient rendition setup for your PC. ----------------------------------------- Dan Belcher Webmaster, http://simcrash.fameflame.dk

Other than a bunch of user created tracks, there is not much of anything for Soda. Soda also had a pretty good FF code, but the paticular type of codec used, I think, has fallen out of favor and you'll be hard pressed to find any FF wheel that will work with it. Viper still has an odd league or two with extra cars(GTS-R) and tracks, you'll find more stuff for Viper. dave henrie
If you are running 2K or XP, you need to get the beta patch for Viper Racing. The file name for mine is "viperpatch121beta". It fixes all of the audio distortion problems, and the game runs perfectly under XP with this patch. It does other stuff too, but I forget the list. I haven't been able to get Soda to run since I upgraded to GeForce cards years ago... -Larry "Verne "fnugen" Harris" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6XUo9.216406$[email hidden]... > Hey everyone.
