Do you have the latest Detonator driver pack from Nvidia? It gives your V550 a total new boost !!!.. mine even runs UT2003 at 800x600Hyronymus wrote:It's a nice game, but my graphics card refuses to cooperate. I was confronted with the truth: my Viper 550 w/ 16MB is too slow for the new generation of games. It does handle Railroad Tycoon II extremely well, but newer games suck. BTW, can anyone explain me how to make a route for those trains in Trucks and Trains Tycoon (or 3DTT)? I am too hooked up on oversimplified routines in TTD...
Never fear, I is here...

Person man, person man - hit on the head with a frying pan.
Games like TTD and TTDX are officially 2.5D, not 2 D or 3D. 2D is what you see when you read a map (important issue for woman ). 3D is what you get with sophisticated hardware, software and other tools. What we consider 3D on our computers is just 2.5 D. Check the manuals of several Computer Aided Design programmes like AutoCAD, Arkey or 3Dmax.
Besides that, if you change view in 2.5D games (scroll camera point up or down) you do see more. AND: someone wrote that you can't see buildings and such because they are obscured by buildings (and such) in front of them. Surely you don't complain about this in real life too, do you? I don't mean to offend whoever wrote it, it just fascinated me.

playstation IS KINDA CRAPPY.... you cant blame the game.
I hate consoles. Those graphics are SOOO lame damn..
I prefer a nice geforce 4 128mb above all those damned machines together.. besides the games are also very expensive and you cant copy them.... not that we would copy them.. hell no !

The inevitable advantage of TTD to all the modern games is its design - simple, that can be percepted and understood at a glance. The most of modern games' are overloaded with those awful "fireplace grid"-like swirls surrounding all the dialog boxes More and more developers forget that a successfull design should be easy to use, and the originality is secondary.
I hate dutch games
