Yup. the drivers from NVIDIA are critical, and it's not a problem with the new version.
The symptoms you are suggesting are exactly what you see when opengl is
not actually installed/working.
If you want to see the framerate, press t while in the game. y shows
you the latency (kinda, it's a weird meter. I've only seen large
numbers when the connection is TRULY a problem.)
Of course, these and other hints are all detailed in the man pages for
bzflag. ('man bzflag')
Also, if you have upgraded to the new 1.7g2 version, you might want to
put a '-anonymous' on the command line, or else it tacks "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to
your nick.
Hope to see you out there. :)
