Slaughter Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 I have seen other reports on this error with a Voodoo card, and the game doesn't really support it. But I have also seen people getting this error on non-voodoo cards, so I am not sure if it is a bug or incompatibility. Did you patch the game with the 1.2 and 1.3 patch?

Treize Posted January 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 Yes, Patched it to 1.3... changed nothing.. but now i switched to win95 compatibility,and did some "try and error" with the config file...the game is running now.. well.. what can you call running...with about 2fps....i will try some 3dAnalyze tweaks...if anyone has another idea, please post it...i will report back as soon as i have any successes on that matter...

Slaughter Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 I have contacted ALTAR since many seem to have this error to check if it is a gamebug or hardware/driver related. Will report back when I know more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 The only news I have for you is that I had to replace my Voodoo 4 4500 with a Nvidia GeForce card when I got Command and Conquer Generals and UFO:AM. Use google to find the web page that tells you how to remove your old 3dFx drivers, or you can look up a utility called Driver Cleaner. It's helpful to have those old video drivers gone. I believe that the newest version of that Driver Cleaner program cleans out some of the most offensive 3dFx drivers, so that you can get a fresh install of the GeForce drivers when you are forced to finally upgrade the video card. I couldn't find any other solution to the Voodoo, except to replace it with the GeForce, since I really wanted to play C&C Generals and UFO:AM.

Cpl. Facehugger Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 I love generals. Especially Zero Hour with the Pro:Gen mod. Anyway...You really should upgrade to a geforce/radeon. And to delve into off topic again, is there any way to enable anti-aliasing in UFO:AM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strahd Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Use google to find the web page that tells you how to remove your old 3dFx drivers, or you can look up a utility called Driver Cleaner. It's helpful to have those old video drivers gone. Or better yet do as I do. Whenever I replace a graphics card, processor or motherboard I format my OS harddrive. That is the easyest way to remove the old drivers. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted March 12, 2004 Report Share Posted March 12, 2004 Still no answer from Martin. But I too think that you better replace your graphics card. It isn't supported anymore you know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
