Ladies and gentlemen! We HAAAAVE Luclin! I had all those same problems too. Upgrade your video card - to Direct X 8.1 and keep trying to log in... That's what I did. By the way - Even with 256MB of RAM - you can still only SAFELY display 15 new models. Out of about 30. Also it's still lagging like a |

Interesting that its not running better for you. I played about 4 hours last night and other than long zoning times everything ran pretty good. I used all 30 models too. This is with Athlon 900, 512MB, Geforce2MX 64MB SDRAM, Cable modem. You computer was faster and the rest of the specs are close... |

I've been thinking of that as the name of the expansion ever since the initials were announced. I always said that this expansion was when all the problems that people /petition about would be solved, because the GM's response was always S.O.L. And lo and behold, I was right: you can't play any mo |

I believe that you can do one of two things here. Try going into your BIOS setup and disabling the built in video card. If this is an option for you, go purchase your new card and install it in an open slot. You can always go into display proproties and remove the settings for you currect card. Good |

Almost everyone will have to get a new video card, it looks like. Do the few whose systems are actually working have any recommendations for the cheapskates? I'm thinking either GeForce or Radeon, 32 MB, but which? |

Yeah, it'd be really weird if after going to so much trouble to make cash sinks (horses, planar stones, peridots, etc) that they'd put in such a great money maker.
Although, it may be a way to get money into the hands of lower level charectors...remember how long it took to earn a single pp in |

One of many possible solutions. I had an ATI Rage LT PRO AGP 2x. I had to install a program called OpenGL Without it no matter what version of Direct X I ran, my system wouldn't recognize anything above 4.1. I think you can find it here: www.opengl.org

Actualloy, what U need to do is install your updated vidoe and audio drivers AFTER you install DX 8.1. IF you do it B4, the install of 8.1 can change settings that can really F things up.
