only reason i can ever remember for getting a solid white screen was punkbuster on the full version. but this doesnt have pb and isnt the full version...so, erm...hopefully running a window will give us some sort of idea.

Author:  aron2 [ 02-09-2005 08:24 PM ]
Post subject: 

now the game loads but it is so slooooooow and a small window

Author:  Oblivi0.on [ 02-09-2005 08:25 PM ]
Post subject: 

but it actually runs? ok, good....now you need to look at settings and shit.

what ati card is it? some older ones run better on older drivers.

Post subject: 

might want to see if there are some settings in your control panel for the video card...not sure what that even supports...but might have AA or AS on or something hindering performance.

what will i be looking for

Author:  Oblivi0.on [ 02-09-2005 08:37 PM ]
Post subject: 

anti-aliasing
anistopic filtering

erm, put all tabs to performance and not quality...you can in nvidia tabs, i am really a noob when it comes to ati cards and control panels.

Post subject: 

I don't even think that Rage Pro supports AA/AF. Do look in your graphics options though. It's in the Advanced options under the 3D tab.

Author:  aron2 [ 02-09-2005 08:48 PM ]
Post subject: 

there is no 3d tab
