Which is better, Unreal in...

[Comp625]

Hey everyone, if you have a RivaTNT 16mb, on a p2 300 and above, which mode do you like in Unreal better, the Direct3D mode or the OpenGL mode?

For me, Direct3D is smooth, but the Advanced Menu is messed up and the lighting and visual quality isnt as good as OpenGL.

But OpenGL, it is a little choppy at times, but the lighting and visual quality rocks. But the choppiness makes me mad sometimes.

Which one do you play with and/or recommend me:
Pentium2 350mhz (not overclocked)
128mb PC100 Ram
Creative Labs RivaTNT 16mb AGP
SB Live Value

YOur computer itself is perfectly fine......Epic just wrote horrbile drivers for both d3d and opengl.....even the fastest computer wont run good if the renderers have so many bugs

For some reason the Unreal Tournament Demo will only play inside a windows in windows.
After trying to find out what was wrong I borrowed my mates copy of Unreal and it does the same thing.
There has to be some combatibility problem and I'd love to know what it is.
Or is there some setup that works the best for this type of card?
My computer is a P3 450 with 64 MB sdram wiht a nVidia Riva TNT card.
Im using directX6.1 and I might need directX7, and that could be the problem or would it be my drivers for the card??
If I go to fullscreen mode it resizes to 512 something and sometimes goes black and asks the question: Video Card displaying correctly?
What the hell do I do??

I have no problems with Unreal and/or Unreal TOurney Demo, I did hear that Unreal Tourney Demo needs DX 7. When I used to have DX 6.1, my Unreal was fine. I have Creative Labs RivaTNT and I also have Detonator Drivers 2.08 or something, (Im too lazy to update to 3.56 or whatever the current update is)
