  • Drakan patch now available

    Was checking around the sites and noticed the Drakan patch we've been waiting for is released. Go get it and see if it fixes the problems we have seen.

        YaY!

        It works. I loaded the save game I sent in to Matrox that crashed 9/10 times when bumpmapping was on.

        5 times in a row, no crah. Then I played to another spot I knew to cause the crash...and it didn't. Good deal.

        Now I need to try the "improved" multi-player

          From the patch's README file:

          "Fixed rare crash when loading in saved-games. Your previous saved games (even the ones that crashed before) can still be loaded..."

          Yeah, and I'm the Queen of France over here. I get the exact same results as before - can't load my most recent save game, and playing to certain points will still crash me. The weird texturing problems on the hills are even still happening. I hate this card, I hate this card, I bloody HATE this card.

          Actually, I don't know if it's a Drakan thing or a G400 thing - probably both - but I'm so annoyed with Matrox in general right now, I'm happy to blame the Drakan problems on them as well.

          I just wanted to play on my TV dammit.
