EMBM on Descent III?

dafone · Jan 15, 2001, 06:55 PM

quiet a while ago I can remember having seen some impressive screenshots ( watch those bump mapped robots! ) somewhere on the MAtrox page, now the Radeon DOES support EMBM but allthough having enabled bump mapping in the latest tweakers I really can't see a big difference compared to my TNT2 beside of more vibrant colours, any hints? Much appreciated since I love this game!

Try getting a patch for it from here
http://www.matrox.com/mga/3d_gaming/...os/patches.cfm

I'm not sure if it'll work since it is a matrox site. The drakan patch worked for me but the expendable patch did not work for one of the fellows here (says it needed matrox hardware)

Anyways good luck.

You need a patch to make it work
I don´t know if the patches on on Matrox site will work but you can give it a try

You will need the patch and "-bumped" to the command-line options which is the Misc tab when you click on Setup.

Do I add the -bump to the command line in a shortcut to the decent 3 executable? Or some other way?

Thanks

When u start Decent... goto setup & then the Misc. option tab. Under 'Optional D3 Command-line switches' add.... -bumped & then okay. U should be set!
