Mmm... bumpage.
BUT
New question.
I just got a new laptop.
...
:D
And its running with nVidia GeForce Go 6400.
(PCI-e x 16, 256 mb mem)
...
:D
Pentium M, 2.00 ghz, vaio build. custom bought, though just a tad bit more expensive. Although, a lappy. Meh.
The problem im facing is... one... i still am unable to make a multiplayer game people can join. Which means the problem is in the router, not my comp. I suppose this can be seen as good news... x_x
Two! On my other computer from which i was previously -blam!-ing about my gameplay was running on Intel Extreme Graphics Card. I have the right mind to take this piece of junk out of my tower and shoot it. Repeatedly. The performance i'm able to get on that piece of junk are...heck, lets just do a comparison.
MINI TOWER

60 hz configuration

Configured Screen Size: 1280 x 800

OKAY
The differences... On my laptop... when i zoom... everything blurrs. Its horrible. x_X i can barely see what im targeting, most of the time... that is, in comparison to my other comp. When i zoom on my other comp, everything is crystal clear, all accross the monitor. Ofcourse, on my minitower though.... i see everyone as white. And pixelated. But atleast they're all white. Whereas, on my laptop, i can see in such detail i can notice the encrusted dirt on my arm. its amazing. ANYWAY anyone know how to fix the zoom problem? If so, please tell me. The other major problem is that night vision sucks. On my other comp, everything works fine.. but on this comp, everything turns bright green and i cant see didly.
Those are my graphics problems. On to sound problems...
On my lappy, i hear everything...
Everything.
Including, someone reloading their pistol, accross the map.. im not exaggerating. Also, because of this, i dont hear shots wizzing by. I only hear the shot, so i dont know if its directed at me or not. Its quite disturbing, since im used to playing without constant gun shots; its like they're right behind me, which usually succeeds in scaring the crappers outta me. Often, i think its due to some weird attempt at sound wave rebounding off the walls, if i hear a shot, it sounds all choppy. And weird. On to sound card stats...
LAPPY
Sound Playback Device: Realtek HD Audio output
MIDI music playback device: Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth

So... why does it act all weird?
Any help is appreciated ^^
