Any other Geforce 2 owners experienced this ???

If you drop bombs , eg on a mission or the training mission, I get absolutely no explosions !!???

Im using 6.49 detonators.....

Please can all Geforce 2 owners check this out , and report back here , so I can see if its a driver problem or not...

Thanks in advance....

God, it sucks that 3dfx has been conquered by nVidia and not the other way around.

My only advcie: try the original driver set from your install CD.

Personally im happy to hear nVidia has aquired 3dfx. 3dfx has been **** since the Voodoo2. Voodoo2 was the last card they made that was significantly better than others on the market (though they were too expensive) nVidia has been my video card maker of choice since the TNT. I just wish I could afford a Geforce2 ultra.

Not only do I not have the same problem I can't recall anyone with a GeForce card suffering the same faults with B17.I've been following the reports from BA about a variety of topics surrounding the GeForce cards but this is new.I have the Geforce2 GTS 32 meg and certainly have no complaints about it for anything I run on it

As far as I can tell,most of the posters on BA have a GeForce or NVIDIA card at least.I'll pop in there and ask..check back later for an update or come along and fire the same question over on the troubleshooting forum there.

I'm using the same drivers and card and explosions are there in all their glory. Plus I am glad nvidia got 3dfx and not vice versa - 3dfx's approach had simply become 'throw more chips at it, and some of it'll work'.

Using 6.47 drivers as ther are issues with 6.49 in some games. 6.47 seem to be the only ones that run Ok with all games.

strange, I thought the game was designed for the gforce card.
