first time poster...gotta say this board sucks...How does one start a new thread...think that the deesigner would make that obvios....maybe I've had too many beers...oh wtf.
My buddy and I were on gv (Game Voice) thinking that problems with BF 1942 were likely DX related so we installed DX9 and sure enough BF1942 1.2 worked pretty good...well accept that there are still too many f*cking cheating punks (for the OpenGL supporters, me being one of them, at least FPS OpenGL games have punk buster). Anyhow, tired of punks we decided to go inot RTCW, and guess what. F*cking freeze frame. As best as I could determine, it was a sound card driver thing, not a network thing (this is to the guy who claims to "KNOW" that everyone on a net game MUST have dx9 installed in order for the game to work. {Oh, and btw mr "DX is required by everyone for a net game to work" guy, 1-how the F*CK do you know [evidence please] 2-doesn't that, in and of itself make MS a bunck of worthless, incompetant MORONS!}). So, did a Restore Point and also called and made a living hell for some MS Cust Serv drone (called and bitched at him for working for that worthless company...ha!), rebooted and voila RTCW works as always.
So RTCW fans stay far away from DX9 until they fix this buggy piece oh cr*p. IMO MS is doing this to f*ck with those who dare play non DX games on their Winblowz Sh*tware...again I stress IMO.
BTW anyone seen Ford...he has my damned towel?
