Well, it appears to work fine on my control computer (old p166 w/s3 video).
the hd.img apperanly uses fb set at 640x480 @ 16bit color on both
(i have found this out after hours of squiting at the monitor and using my
martial art skills to slow down the text that goes flying by)
Well, on the computer that i'm beta testing and trying to use the hd.img on
uses a creative labs annihilator pro (nvidia geforce, which is compatabile the
tnt2 servers)
It apperanly also trys the same "fb 640x480 @ 16bit color". The jpegs that i
sent (above previous post) pretty much sums up the story.
Resolution any one?
