Detail textures?

Capt. Camshaft · 30th Nov 1999, 02:28 AM

I noticed something when I started up Unreal after playing some Unreal Tournament on my Voodoo 2 card... UT Tournament is missing "Detail textures"; the enhanced detail overlay textures that show up when you get close to walls and floors. There's no option to turn them on/off in the menus, so I went looking through the UnrealTournament.ini file, and under [GlideDrv.GlideRenderDevice], DetailTextures is set to True. But they're not there, not even at high world texture detail, which is a bit too much for even a 12 mb Voodoo2, but Unreal runs plenty smooth on my system with detail textures on...

What's the story? Anyone know?

I gots that fancy tex on my Banshee
it should be there for your V2
try reinstalling or atleast go into the advanced options and reset all the options to default
then launch safe mode and reselect glide as your rendering device
also what is your 2d card
maybe UT might think thats what you wanna use to play if it too is a 3d card like tnt

Depends on who's asking... identify yourself, mortal!

BirdDog: I doubt UT is confused by my card.. when I installed it, the only two choices were software rendering and Glide. My 2d card is a Mystique 220 - I think I would notice if UT was trying to use it. [img]/~unreal/ubb/html/smile.gif[/img] All the settings are at the default except for I run at 800x600 not 640x480. I'll play with it when I get back from work.

Stergion? Lil' Petey? It must be you, because Powell doesn't play UT and he's much too mature to actually use "LOL"...

Gee, what happened to [ * KAOS * ]?
