probably due ports in his case, but hard to tell without more info). Then he tried to play MP, but crashed (could be due anims, z-buffer.

This is what probably happened: fox_inuyasha installed the game, changed resolution and played some SP. I'll have to rewrite FAQ from our main site when I find time. Why is so hard to remember that stock game (and BZ98) come in 640x480 resolution, which is the only working Window mode resolution, and also the resolution you get after the first crash? Then why is so hard to remember that BZ in Vista/7+Nvidia combination requires BZ resolution 800圆00 or higher, and that there's no fix for white boxes on radar map (Vista/7+Nvidia GeForce)? All this was already said too many times. We all know what happened when SE was reporting 1.5 issues while only using the exe. It leads to one of the (experimental) builds, not to 1.5b (which doesn't exist) or 1.5b installer, which exists here. IE, Snowcone's link is useful only if you are executable collector, otherwise there's no much you can do with it. If you don't know, why you even bother posting and confusing new members/potential players with your ignorance? You guys are here almost every day, so you should know the answers to all F.A.Q, even if awaken in the middle of the night. Sporkinator has 2075 posts, Snowcone 464, SnakeEye 266. Then forum's finest are trying to help him, unsuccesfully of course (SnakeEye is my favorite). I make sporadic appearances in the evening, EST.Īll these Tech Support topics look the same there's a guy with a problem, but when asking for help he forgets to post system specifications (yes, router model too), or BZ he's using (it makes a lot difference if it is BZ98 or CD isntallation), or he makes crucial changes to the game (like resolution and render), without mentioning them. There's usually Spork, Guren, and BattleDroid in there. PS: If you ever want 'live' support from members who might be able to help you out, check out our TeamSpeak. The best thing you can do to help speed up its release is beta test the latest beta-builds of 1.5 and identify any bugs you come across.

The ETA of 1.5 is up in the air, remember it is only Ken.

There are some crashes associated with the latest 1.5 BETA build, but they are being ironed out by Ken.who is not being paid to pretty much rewrite nearly all the source code of a commercial game (he does it in his free time).

Ken is graciously creating the 1.5 patch (with DX 9 as the engine) so it will be playable by all modern computer systems. just got this game installed today and i love it.īZ was made back in 1998 and its engine never went through an 'update' to be compatible with newer computers, it was made on DX3. i guess im just gonna have to find an ETA for the 1.5 patch and hope its soon. and i think i have directx10 or 11 (if 11 exsists yet) thanks to steam games.
