Post by: Panzzer on April 02, 2004, 05:04:19 PM: Ok, first try this: click Start and then Run, and then type dxdiag in the box that opens. It should tell which version of DirectX you're running.

If your version isn't DirectX9 (DirectX 9.0b or something..) try this site, http://www.microsoft.com/directx/

Post by: FOGOLD on April 03, 2004, 08:58:33 AM: When it's ready! Do you really want them to rush something like this? Me, I'm waiting till it's done, honing my paltry skills in the AH1 arenas:D Tried one of the betas. It's best to wait.
Title: Ah2
Post by: Monty405 on April 03, 2004, 12:24:04 PM: Q3 meant an open beta was going to release.

they were a week or two off, no biggie.
Title: Ah2
Post by: Flossy on April 03, 2004, 12:55:32 PM: The more players that help test in the Open Beta the faster AH2 will go live. More players means more different systems tested and more bugs found, which all contribute towards the finished product. So get in the Beta arena and test it! :)

Title: Ah2
Post by: 214thCavalier on April 03, 2004, 04:29:41 PM: No you need 9.0b
Title: Ah2
Post by: Flossy on April 03, 2004, 04:50:38 PM: Not specified in the Announcement so 'a' should be OK - as long as it's 9.x ;)

Let ah1 run online when ah2 comes out because a lot of people do not have money for a new computer
Title: Ah2
Post by: Furious on April 04, 2004, 03:07:38 AM: you don't/can't spend the money to upgrade, but HTC is supposed to spend the money to keep two sets of servers up??

It's already been stated by HTC that once AH2 comes out of Beta, AH1 will go away. You may not necessarily need to buy a complete new computer - maybe just a new video card or something.....

Post by: 101ABN on April 05, 2004, 11:17:49 AM: directx 9.0b... for some reason my computer will not install the update because of some certificate or its not compatable with windows Xp, what next.
Title: Ah2
Post by: Wilbus on April 05, 2004, 11:40:54 AM: You either download the wrong version (not the XP version) or you download the wrong langugae. You must have the same language DX version as your XP version is.

What will be the video requirements? Since my new Dell 2400 is kind of sub-par for video, I'd like to get a new PCI video card that I can use...I don't want to be left out in the cold on AH2. What would be good as far as a video card that would be compatible or more than enough to handle the graphics?

Thanks

Actually, nvidia has just launched a new line of PCI cards.

Dunno why, tho.

I was looking at either the
eVGA e-GeForce MX 4000 128MB DDR PCI Graphics Card Model: 128-P1-NV94

or the
PNY GeForce FX 5200 128MB DDR PCI Graphics Card Model: VCGFX52PPB

Not sure which one would be better.

Post by: jodgi on April 05, 2004, 02:25:58 PM: I bet the FX card would be best.

Thanks. That's what I thought. I notice the video bandwidth was almost double the rate of the other card...not quite, but a lot higher.
