BZFlag on MS Windows 2000 Pro vs. SuSE Linux 10.0 Pro

Hi.

Me and I my brother like to play BZFlag together, but we only have a windows and a linux. On linux - SuSE 10.0 Pro - BZFlag's already installed. Nice graphics. Yeah. Obviously it wasn't on MS Windows 2000. :wink:

So I downloaded version 2.0.4 for Windows. And the graphics sucked. Yup, I tried to get the latest version like the Linux one, but 2.0.4 was the latest possible. Great. :roll:

Anyway, could any one of help me get this working, so Zack, my brother, can play me... properly? :)

Thanks in advance,

Go into "Options" and adjust your "Display" settings. Try the Quality one first.

could be that the windows 2000 machine dosent have a good enough graffix driver to support it. i found on my sisters super old machine that if i turn the video format down really low it works good. grafix suck tho but hey it works. also it could be that the windows machine needs a new gfx driver

@Matt? -
Yeah, that might be the problem, but it the default works fine for me (except for the sucky graphics)
