BUMP

Do many of you still play T1?

Mixie

Nope. Everytime I try a new OS, I try Tribes 1 again. This puter seems to have some serious OGL issues, I'm talking like 2 fps on a GeForce 3 - if I'm lucky .

It's not OGL in general though - I mean, I can't use OGL in Half-Life, Tribes and a few others, but it works in games like Quake 3 , Tribes 2, etc. etc. etc.

Using detonators 12.85 at the moment (I think), which seem to give me the best performance.

Any ideas/suggestions?

system:
AMD 1.3ghz TBird
GeForce 3 (Hercules Prophet 3)
768 MB SD Ram
Installed on a 100gb HD, 7200 rpm (defraged). Think it's a seagate drive, if not, its an IBM 100gb, again 7200 rpm.
SB Live (Digital Audio)

^^ That's all I can think might impact it in some way, however unlikely. I've tried searching on the net for hardward related T1 problems, and on the rare occasion where I met some hardware I had that did have probs , I applied mentioned fixes with no luck at all.

Hope u can help

Mix.

Sorry, too late
Consider your LAN poisoned

Seriously, i might not like Op Flash, ive never played it. Sooo, it seems like a good idea to organise some Tribes in advance

Proabably very fewas tribes 1 is kinda a 'cult' game and tribes 2 is , well, muck.

Scroll up to the first post for a link to the thread about the Op Flash Lan (Where there will be a bit of tribes going)

As to your opengl problem, Have you patched up tribes 1? T1 outta the box had HORRIFIC support for ogl. In subsequent patches it was fixed tho.

See http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&postid=319976#post319976 for the sign up topic for the OP FLASH lan

Mixie

meant t1 and/or t2

T1 is fully patched (no OGL support outta the box AFAIR)
