Title: FF7 and WinXP
Post by: Trilinear on 2001-08-18 12:17:00

Just like to say:  FF7 appearently has no problem running in Windows XP with no fixes at all (I'm running the 180day trial release.)  So, yay.

What about the Bird Race?

Maybe I should have said, "How 'bout"

With the Nvidia 12.41 Detonators, I can run 4x FSAA w/o a problem.  Well, I should say without a problem with ff7.  

I've been having wierd problems having the system lock and shutdown when moving the mouse cursor over text sometimes.  Windows claims its a problem with a drawing function caused by the "Nvidia Geforce DDR Device".  Might be the drivers, I dunno.

Bird Race?  Ship me a save file at that point and I'll test it.

Skillster: I think you mean anisotrophic filtering  :wink:

Incidentally the Remake engine now supports FSAA and anisotrophic filtering  :D

Trilinear: Please do! One of the annoying things about upgrading O/S is all the compatibility you lose...
If you've got a savegame, try the end of Disk 2 - I had crash problems there  :( If it works at the races and there it's probably pretty stable.
