Technical difficulty...

[glandry]

Hi everyone,

 

I've just loaded SWRebellion onto a new laptop, and the graphics suck. This laptop is running XP. I also tried using Win95 compatibility mode with 256K colors, but no dice. Any ideas? It works fine on my old PC. Could it be a DirectX issue?

[Cain]

hmmm ...difficult one this is ...... - Mask ?! Any advaice ?

Welcome back Major, it's been a while.

 

I also run Rebellion under XP, both on my Pc and the laptop, so I know you surely don't need that compatibility mode. Since it's XP, it should be DirectX 8, but still the game should look the same as on your pc.

 

What graphics card and driver version do you use ?

[glandry]

The laptop uses a Mobility Radeon 9000. Seems to have 32MB of memory.

Indeedy, good to see you back Glandry!

 

PC's are very odd.

Hi glandry,

I run Reb on my laptop with XP and a Radeon 7500 and it works perfectly...

As Jahled said: PCs are very odd!

I ahve also a problem ...actualy question :

 

 

I found this in rebellion :

 

44449, "Target Death Star Superlaser"

44450, "Navigation Point Set 1"

44451, "Navigation Point Set 2"

44452, "Navigation Point Set 3"

44453, "Navigation Point Set 4"

44454, "Highlight Alliance Ships"

44455, "Dim Alliance Ships"

44456, "Highlight Empire Ships"

44457, "Dim Empire Ships"

44458, "Game Options"

44459, "Remember Camera Position"

44461, "Reset Camera View"

44462, "Death Star Superlaser Charging"

 

Now how can I target the DS Superlaser ?!......and how I set nav points .....like in homeworld......or I get it rung

[Trejiuvanat]

You can set navpoint by activating the odd floating traigles in tactical and hold the Shift-Key, while you click on the triangles you want your navroute.

For the DS superlaser, you need to first have a DS in battle and then on top of the status display, there will be a green bar, click on the button next to it and target the Rebel ship you want to blow up, the superlaser will need to recharge.

[Cain]

I was thinking that the rebels are attacking the super laser

[Trejiuvanat]

You cna only send them to attack the DS not the superlaser. That's probably one of the things that were left out, like the Milenium Falcon, or it is an Easter Egg like the Second Death Star.

[Cain]

hmmm...you may be right ....you cant destroy a DS with some ships but you can damage the SL ....no ?!

 

 

geee I have an ideea ...what if our R&D dudes find a way to reactivate the unimplemented stuff ?! ..from the game.
