dug out unreal. it requires dx 5.0? i unchecked the install of that. Thinking it would bollox up dx 9. unfortuanetly it won't run. "general protection fault" i found the unreal site and clicked to download the patch but it isn't self installing just a .dll. Tried another link and you have to pay to join to get into file planet. anyone else got it stored away somewhere? You don't have to pay at FilePlanet.... It's just an option you have... >dug out unreal. it requires dx 5.0? i unchecked the install of that. >Thinking it would bollox up dx 9. unfortuanetly it won't run.

And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kill brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers. > Tried another link and you have to pay to join to get into file planet.

Just dug my copy out - why do the textures look poo, and I don't just mean by today's standards?

Its been so long i can't remember my way around so its like playing it for the first time again. Only this time at a much higher resolution ;P I seem to have got away without installing dx5.0. >>> Just dug my copy out - why do the textures look poo, and I don't just >>> mean by today's standards?

Thanks to rms for pointing out the url, make sure you get the 226 patch and the multimedia update for it - the game suddenly looks and sounds great again! Now, about the hi-res textures that are on ut cd2 (which I don't own).....

It has made no difference except that the guns are more shiny and the game flickers a bit now. >>>>> Just dug my copy out - why do the textures look poo, and I don't just >>>>> mean by today's standards? [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] >difference except that the guns are more shiny and the game flickers a bit >now. Have you gone into options/advanced options and set the video driver to opengl, and the audio to openal? I was wondering why it looked so poo until I realised it was on software rendering - now it's on opengl and looks great! Don't forget, in the console (press ' or @) and type : open thesunspire (or bluff, skytown, trench, etc...) god summon rifle summon eightball ;) Signaturesteve <AT> steveevans <DOT> org >Now, about the hi-res textures that are on ut cd2 I tried to use these long ago in the original Unreal1, but couldn't get them to work right. This was some years ago tho. UTournament is prolly $2 now, might be worth picking it up and experimenting! rms Uh, it doesn't sounds like DX is the problem, as I and many others play Unreal 1 with DX9c without trouble.
