Running Unreal Gold with a GeForce 3 Ti 200, latest Det 4 drivers (23.11) on Win98 SE, DX 8.1
Getting a weird hitching/freezing problem with Direct3d when moving around (happens every so often for about a second, then everything goes back to normal); also happens sometimes at the opening flyby screen. I have everything turned on in the Unreal.ini file. Turning on precaching doesn't help (seems to make it worse). Here's my current .ini setup:
[D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice]
Translucency=True
VolumetricLighting=True
ShinySurfaces=True
Coronas=True
HighDetailActors=True
UseMipmapping=True
UseTrilinear=True
UseMultitexture=True
UsePageFlipping=True
UsePalettes=True
UseFullscreen=True
UseGammaCorrection=True
DetailTextures=True
Use3dfx=False
UseTripleBuffering=True
UsePrecache=False
dwDeviceId=0
dwVendorId=0
UseVertexFog=False
UseAGPTextures=False
UseVideoMemoryVB=False
UseVSync=False
I've tried fiddling with the settings, turning some things on, other things off, but it happens no matter what I do. I don't get this problem with OpenGL and newer games (like R.T. Castle Wolfenstein), so I'm wondering if it's the drivers in general. I tried using the 21.83 drivers, but the performance is very sub-par compared to the 23.11's. UG doesn't allow OpenGl support, either
Could the game be sensitive to my overclocked system (celly 2 566@850)?Anyone run into this problem, since UG is running on the Unreal Tourney engine? Any suggestions?
Thanks
