i dont want to sound harsh but do yourself a favor and upgrade! i know not everyone has the cash, but i managed it! and im always skint!

 

i went from my k6/2 400mhz and voodoo to my new AMD 1900+ XP!

i tell you its well worth it! i can play all new game perfectly smooth!

Well im runnng JK2 with a :

P2-350, 3dfx Voodoo Banshee, 320megs ram and it runs fine. Obviously have to turn the graphics down a bit, and it can be a little choppy in very open areas (for some reason only the mining level, not the gangster level which is huge), but its definately playable.

Funny thing is LucasArts said in the readme that the Voodoo Banshee would not work at all, and yet theres all these people with Geforces having problems with crashes etc. I havn't had a crash yet and I've played it a good 6 hours :)

Just make sure you're using the Wicked GL drivers, and you should be sweet.

Email me if you need any help

Good luck :)

It may be the texture size. I had the same problem with newer games a while back when I ran on voodoo3 3000. voodoo3 can only get 256x256 textures. Not to sound rude or anything. But I think its time you gave your current system a nice little play 6 feet under if you want this game to look good. But I'm a big detail freak, so don't mind me if you don't mind stuff not being as high is it can go ;P. I'm just saying this because most games coming out recently are so demanding on systems.

I'm sorry but I would have to say no.. If you run a Celeron or a Duron then more than likely it wouldn't be much of a problem.. The fact is you have a K6-2 with is the lowest of lows when it comes to proccessors.. I'll put it like this would anyone of you run the game on a Cyrix 6x86 400 MHz cpu?? well the K6-2 is AMD's version of the old Cyrix chips.. I had a K6-2 500 MHz and would not run any Quake 3 based engine games very well..

 

Sorry my friend but it is time to upgrade, I went from the 500 that ran like a 250 to a XP 1700 and I'm loving it..
