I just downloaded DX6.1 and installed it. SMAC was running just fine before but now it is having lots of DX problmes. Most of the problems are rlated to video mode switching. If I start the game in 16 bit color, it crashes. I change my mode to 256 color and it runs fine until I exit the game then it scrambles the windows graphics. FYI i'm using MS certified drivers for my Mystique (orginal). Any suggestions? (other than turning off direct draw in the INI) |

Well I also have downloaded and installed DX6.1 recently, and also have a mystique (mystique 220 4mb here). I am not experiencing any similar problems. Sorry I can't be much help, I just wanted to let you know that it's not happening to me with similar hardware. I'm running with the newest mystique drivers (not the unified drivers) from www.matrox.com/mga Jim |
