Gorgeous screenie

Congrats on the new card AVG, very nice looking. I got a 8800gtx 756mb card and it is beautiful as well.

AVGWarhawk · 12-28-07, 10:04 PM

I have the AGP system so I went for this 7800. Last gasp before I switch to Vista and PCI.

Is this something you gents have come accross.

It's been like that since the game was released.

Right, does anyone know if it's possible to have the cross-hairs 'roll' with the now unstabilized DG?

tnx

I've got a 8800 gts 640 mb running on vista. ROW is the best. But I must warn you. It's so nice just to watch the sub rolling and sailing in the sunshine: Don't get caught by surprise. There's a war going on you know. Speaking from experience! Aniuk.

Love your screenshot btw

DrBeast · 12-29-07, 07:36 AM

Good for you, AVG! But you're not giving your old Radeon card its due credit. The 7800GS is at least three steps up from that card, in terms of processing power. And the whole glare issue, well, it's not really ATi's fault...or at least not completely. Both sides are to blame here. Now, guess what card I used when I got this screenie:

Hint: it's an ATi, same series as yours, with a bit more punch (ok, it's an X1650Pro). I get these results constantly when I pause the game, alt-tab out of it and back, and then go to outside view. Only lasts long enough for me to grab a pic or two, then it reverts to Ye Olde ATi standards.

ETA: Switching to a PCI-E platform is good and well, but for the love of the Gods, stay away from Vista! Make a dual-boot system with XP and Vista if you must, at least until Vista has been Service-packed a few times. I spent a whole weekend trying to get a new laptop to work properly with Vista. I got a 20% increase in white hair in that weekend, trying to get 2- and 3-year-old programs to work. Never happened!

ETA #2: Dave, talk to us, mate! We're getting a bit worried!

The newer ATI and higher end ATI cards can make the glare and halo. My X1300 was fine with running the game with most of the buttons pushed and sliders to the right. At one time I had the halo with the X1300. I was testing textures for Leo. I had it then. The problem with ATI is the drivers for the 1000 series have gone to the wayside. I was stuck on 7.7. Anything after that the 3D engine would not start. Just as well I went back to Nvidia. My MoBo is made by Nvidia and all of components just seem to work together flawlessly. The Nvidia card I purchased from Tigerdirect was just a sweet deal. It has made a world of difference in visual and my mouse courser is smooth. All in all, I'm very pleased.

Seems like a fairly good place to get stuff, when I built my latest rig I used Tiger.ca for some of the parts.
On another note, anyone here from Dave as of late, Christmas Eve was his last post.

You know, I really envy you americans sometimes...if only because of newegg. Whenever I feel like tormenting myself I hop to that site and browse around while drooling incontrollably! I then compare the prices there with the cheapest e-shop in Greece and get an urge to pack a bag and move to the US! :rotfl:

barndog · 12-29-07, 09:54 AM

I run an 8800GTS in Vista Pro don't remember this problem til I installed Special effects 5b.

sqk7744 · 12-29-07, 12:48 PM

Anyone heard from LV/Leo/Dave?

* Great screenshots!
