Hey Crim, I got some old memory you can use. 256MB worth.

Will give it to you free. PM me your address and I will send it to you.

And I am not joking.

I think I have a 256MB RAM stick hanging out too. It yours, if you want it.

It could be a RAM issue. I'm running 256 meg. I could access more, but I'm not speaking to my dad, cheapskate that he is. He's got the old computer, and I'm not in the mood to ask him to go fishing for the RAM chips.

Let us know if this helps with your game issue

KBF-Crim · « **Reply #32 on:** August 20, 2005, 07:22:39 pm »

Negative...But big thanks to Karnak and Cayne...

It's more than likely a driver issue...

Crimmy:

You know, that's oddly close to the specs of my box which has run SFC just fine (except for a little playing with the sfc.ini file...)

I've got a Celeron 1 gHz with 256 mb RAM (Recent addition, worked for 10+ campaigns at 128 mb) on a GeForce 2 MX 400 PCI (since my box doesn't have a physical AGP slot)

First thought is to drop the color depth to 16 bit from 24/32 bit when playing SFC. I remember hearing that the textures don't like to display when the color depths are different...

Well...yeah...I did that...

Game loads...still no models or weapons graphics

Did you try setting your wireframe setting to 1 in sfc.ini file? That's what I had to do to see models. I still cannot see ION storms though.

[3D]
wireframe=1
windowed=0
zbuffer=1
lowres=3
driver=0
backdrop=0
shipstacking=1
ambientlighting=0.50
luminancetextures=1
luminancedamagetextures=1
spacedust=0

Actually...I FIXED IT finnally......

I had a little time to burn this Eve and I followed a hunch....I regressed my drivers even farther back....to 41.09 to be exact...much farther back than I previously tried...

And had to set windowed to enabled....

but she works!........

Thanks for all the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOT!

Excellent

The extra RAM should make a difference as well.
