except if you use a wrapper printscreen works
v3 + above printscreen should work also

ps: here the only thing it puts in the reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Digital Integration\Hind]
"Location"="C:\\DI\\HIND"

Cheers, I'll enter the registry details manually and give it a try later.

I get this when I make a screenie (software)

Is this due to the 8bit colors in the game?

i think its becasue of the use of palleted textures - so yeah
hmm just crashed when i tried software mode

It crashes when you try software mode?
Strange, with compatible settings it should run fine.
Or did it crash when you tried a screenshot?
It crashed for me, too. You can see the "shadow" of the error report in the centre of my screenie

just sofware mode
although it ran ok before the patch + 3dfx upgrade

I have just picked up Hind on ebay for 5p! lol. Just arrived this morning and I opened the box to find Apache and F-16 in there as well! Bargain.

Anyway, it's the FLF version which already 3DFX ready and I am running using the Zeckensack wrapper but I am getting horrendous FPS. It's really bad around building and vehicles, especially airbases and gets better out where nothing is.

How should I be setting the settings for a decent running game?

Thanks

sorry mace
just upgraded to a 6800gt and hind has stopped working may need to mess around with it
try lowering sound acceleration if you have hyperthreading try assinging it it 1 cpu

Seems it the visual range setting. You cannot change this throught the preferences menu only in game by pressing ALT 1-9, 1 being the lowest. I can run it succesfully now at about 7-8.

Thought I would just post this incase anyone else is having this problem running it as 3DFX through a wrapper.

Well I have original cd Hind, with boxe, manual... What I will need to get that very nice textures?? and how to get the very high resolution?? I played the game on XP without any problem.
I want to enjoy those Afghan missions again!!
