Question About FE
« on: July 25, 1999, 11:47:00 PM »
I have simple question to FE program.
In War Birds,I was always playing it under 2D mode because of lack of my PC hardware power and some 3D graphics problem(small ground target were coudn't see from 15k feets - under 640 resolution btw).
I think 2D mode will help much for lo end machine users.

Japan,

I think you will find there is no 2d game in Aces High.
They appear to have made the decision to go purely 3d for the freedom it will give.

Think of it as a great reason to upgrade.

Not to mention that going hardware only will actually increase performance.  Remember, offloading graphics stuff to the card frees up CPU cycles.  Usually when referring to a game, software/2D is mentioned as something you could play, but slower and crappy looking.  That's why God invented 3D cards for us anyway...
