openGL problem...

[Ath313]

has anyone had this problem with their 3dfx card in homeworld b4 ?
i can play the game fine in D3d but in OgL units start to flash like crazy whenever they start to fight/ interact. By flash i mean flash on and off (in and out of existence really fast )
im running a 333Mhz w/ voodoo 3, i updated homeworld , the drivers from the site and i tried GL setup. so far , nothing has helped. Any suggestions would be appreciated. :(

I know this one!... errr I think I do. Try... ummmm ... jeezus it's been a while...

Try the /triple /nofastfe switches.

i'd love to , but i dont know where to try that :P does Hw have a console or soemthing, or do i put it in the command line ?

On the shortcut, right click and go to properties... on the shortcut tab, in the command line box... add those switches on the end.

neither worked sadly , but to make sure could you givem e example of how your shortcut line would look? This is how i did mine : C:\Games\SIERRA\Homeworld\Homeworld.exe /nofastfe

thx for ur help

That's correct... did you get an error after you did that? Or did it just not help the situation?

nono the game worked fine after that , it jus didnt do anything different , the units continue to flash , maybe i should do both at once ?
