  • G200 and Unreal

    quickie question...

    Is UT playable with the MGA 200? I tried but got no wall/ground textures. To little onboard memory?

      All I can remember is that with a PIII-500 and using a resolution of 640x480@16bit it was playable, even with the details to the max.

        I saw this problem on my G200.
        Going back to older (5.41) fixed it.

            Like Kruzin said, use PD 5.41. There is a known D3D problem with the G200 and anything PD 5.5x and beyond.

            As to whether or not it's playable, well, thats a matter of opinion. I used my G200 at 800x600 16bit color, low detail players, medium world detail, and got between 20 and 30 fps most of the time(on an Athlon 650).

              Hi HedsSpaz
              Your FPS seems to be low.On my P3-450,64 MB RAM,my G200 (8 MB SDRAM)gives an average of around 40 FPS,at 800x600 16bit medium detail for players and same for world
              Cheers

                I'm using a G200 and it runs UT fine as long as you stay at 640x480 16bit. Use the Powerdesk 6 drivers, they work the best for me. You'll need to copy the inf file from an older driver.

                  I have to agree with Kruzin... I used this machine at the MURC Lan Party II and it ran UT fine albiet 640x480. I did my share of fragging
