Hello everybody,

I downloaded both CMBO and CMBB demos. Everything seems to run fine, but there's a couple of graphic problems, I'm curious if anybody have experienced this before.

1.) In CMBO, some stuff like tree or smoke look like blocky, and unrealistic at best.

2.) In CMBB, some area like river (I think) in Cithadel (I think) is blocky and not smooth.

Otherwise, both are playable.

I have a 3dfx Voodoo3 2000 with 16mb of video memory. Yeah, I know, it's a pretty old card, about three years old....

I found that Voodoo company was out of business, so I am unable to solve the problem, I think.

Any help would be appreciated....

Thanks, now, I am off to force my Russian troops to go after these German positions in a human wave....no mercy on them kids!

I kill two birds with one stone: Less Nazis, and Less Communists...eh in a...slugfest....hehe.

Thanks again,
Dan

You might want to check out the CMBB, CMBO or technical areas of the battlefront.com forum. I believe tht some folks reported problems similar to yours with the CMBB demo, but I don't remember the particulars. Can't tell you about the the CMBO demo, except it ran fine on my 8mb ATI Rage (something) card on my old computer. If you can find the right thread that's probably the best place to go. Even better you could sign up and post your own question. There is an excellent chance that one of the Battlefront staff, or one of the very knowledgeable but sometimes not so gentle forum members will have your answer.

You are going have to find better drivers,there are files at
www.3dGuru.com-www.x3dfx.com or got www.3DFX.com,they'll have links to new drivers but be aware that these drivers might
have bugs in them and are 2nd party so save your old drivers,
if you do still like Voodoo 3DFX-go to www.PriceWatch.com,
look up graphics cards you'll see voodoo-try to buy a Voodoo
5500-agp-I still got that in my cpu,runs preety good but only thing is to run it at 2x anti-alising,because you will still get some graghic probelms like at the infomation about your units will only have a white box,also if you go in and out using Esc and come back,the bottom stuff of units will be blurred,but not the game
itself,or buy the G-force-4-4200-128-mb ram from asustek,I just bought that for $170.00,that's not bad deal,if you have any questtions let me know =).
