Ravenite Posted April 7, 2002 Share Posted April 7, 2002 I've got a Voodoo 3 3000, but I can put up with all the bugs that occur in the single player game. The main problem I have is that when launching a multiplayer game, all the text becomes totally unreadable, so I can't exit spectator mode, or even leave the game without using alt+F4. Does anyone else have this problem, and does anyone know a way to get rid of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XaiverMerlyn Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 I have the same issue! P3 800 384 MB PC133 Ram Voodoo3 3000 TV Mine also locks up completely after just a second in the level. The first time I ran it, it played fine with the exception of the *****ed up text thing. Any Suggestions? I'm going to replace my ancient V3 next month, but I want to use this card in my older system too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qthulu Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Hi! I have the same problems. Cant read the menu texts in multiplayer (only when i start my own server), when i play online its ok. And the sky is one big graphicmess. When it comes to the menu... just learn where the exit button is. Press esc and push the button (blurry text =)) up to the right, thats the quit button etc... figure it out. I exit the game that way. The sky i fixed by putting "cg_drawfastsky 1" in my config. (or is it r_drawfastsky 1 ??? dont remember, check it out!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenite Posted April 8, 2002 Author Share Posted April 8, 2002 Well, I found out how to exit by randomnly clicking buttons, but it still is really annoying. Mine doesn't lock up, but I still can't properly work out how to exit spectator mode. Hopefully there'll be a patch sooner or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lark Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Hey guys, I had the same problem you all had but I found a temporary fix for it. I got into a multiplayer game and brought down the console (shift + ~) and typed 'vid_restart'. The game then restarted and when it got back into it all the text was working. It didn't fix it permanently because the next multiplayer game I got into I had to do it again. oh by the way, I was hosting all these games I dont know if it would kick you if you joined a game and did this. Well I hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
