Weapon Trails Bug

by Eric Forhan · in General Discussion · 07/21/2003 (8:43 pm) · 4 replies

Just downloaded the latest WWDC(?) version. Weapon trails do not work properly for me. I see them the most when spinning the character around, oddly enough--but vary rarely when I swing a weapon.

AMD 700Mhz, 288MB RAM, Radeon 9500... run in FS 1028x768x32 mode.

Hmmm... thought JM fixed that bug.... It's a problem with AMD CPU's (no idea why). I helped test it on my systems and thought it had been fixed. Might have crept back in with a CVS update from an old source dump.

Bump and an FYI: I'm using Omega's Tweaked Radeon drivers, based on the Catalyst 3.5 drivers. I haven't tried the latest update yet.

My proc is a "classic" slot-A Athlon on an Asus k7v mobo. Should be the latest Hyperion mobo drivers and BIOS.

Try it with official drivers, might be an issue with those hacked drivers.
