"improvements"

Why the heck did we have to have a new patch for T2 that obviously hadn't been tested for compatibility with everyone? It doesn't make any sense... I want to practice, get my skilz up, and I'm stuck because Dynamix decided to release MAJOR changes to some of the graphics coding WITHOUT testing it on all cards they say T2 supports. I'm totally pissed off at this right now... totally.

uh... worked fine for me

We don't have the same cards, but I would check to make sure you have all the latest drivers and such for your card... and try a clean install... remove the drivers... shut down the comp... remove the card and put in your old one... restart to complete the removal then shut down, put the Voodoo back in and restart installing the new drivers. Then try getting the latest patch for T2.

There are no latest dirvers for her card, 3dfx is no more.

Get DX8, refresh drivers, reinstall absolutely EVERYTHING you possibly can. Trust me, computers die of old age. Yours may just need a reinstall-overhaul.

It's not my computer... It's the patch. I have been able to play Tribes2 fine until this last release. I've installed all of the drivers twice now, and done 3 clean reinstalls for Tribes2. None of you guys use a Voodoo card, so you wouldn't understand. I'm not the only one with problems with this patch. UE's abound every single person who has a Voodoo that I've talked to.

Ahh, it's all a plot!

I do I do I do, I have an VD 3 3000 PCI, but I have'nt played T2 in like a week, so I never truy the new pacth, but I did found new drivers, hope it helps, and no I have'nt try them myself, but my friend says they work great

**edit**

Well I can't seem to host it since it's 2MB, and it's an exe, I try to zip it, but it does'nt work, were probably gonna need BJ helps for me to somehow upload the drivers on the net so that you can D/L them
