I have the same exact problem, and was hoping to find the solution here.
Can anyone run the Terrain Editor succesfully?
I am running Win 98 on a PII 333 (stop laughing) with 256Mb of ram. Monster sound MX300 sound card and a GeForce 3d Prophet (the one right before DDR)
I am expecting a new system in two to three weeks, I just can't handle the FR drop in furballs or near bases, cities, ect. So this may fix my problem.
Thanks,
