What is EBPM bumpmapping?

Well, game hasn't crashed like that again. Some texture mix-ups (3D cockpit orange and recycler ground gray texture can only be seen from sat-bunker view), but sky and everything was working in the next few missions and instant maps.

Mean 60 fps though, and nothing below 46.

Well, I was wondering if it'll work with the full installer.

Any bugs?

Looks great! Explosions fit well.

So how is the mod coming along? (And what is it? Is it an effects/graphics update?)

I've installed a 280GTX and actually had better framerate than 7800GTX in firefights. This is odd, I suppose, because I understand that BZ2 is CPU intensive and doesn't use all that much GPU power.

But then the polygons in the game start flickering, and the screen went blue (I could see minimap, and shoot/more/ hear sounds, but my view is blue. This happened half hour into game.

I'm assuming this has to do with drivers? I've got 1.3pb4a and 182 drivers.

Working. Thanks.

Where are the audio files in the BZ2 disk? WM player doesn't come up. But I've got VLC, Zoomplayer, and irfanview installed will all sorts of exotic codecs. Never use WM player, nor updated it, but BZ2 is from 1999 so that shouldn't matter, right?

I think Commando's idea is the best if it improves framerate as a side effect. This is something introduced in the new patch I understand? 

Checked all of the above.

Sound is there but no music.

Any way to install music from cd? Or force it to load by command, because it is not playing by itself? BTW--I can hear the menu music, but no music in-game.   

I've got windows xp pro sp3. No problems with drivers. Realtek HD audio drivers and 6.1 channel sound system. I find a similar problem with bz2 on my 280GTX system. Game has good fps and sound, but no music.

Last system I played the game on was a Pentium 4 1.4GHz system from 2001 with cd drive (non-writing).

Hello all,

Just decided to replay BZ2 on my slightly newer PC (with 1.3Pb4). However, I get no music in my game pre-patch or after patch. No idea what is going on.

I have my CD in the drive, but no music. Music form CD is checked in options.

I've looked at topics, and this seems to be a very rare problem. What should I do?

What folder is the game music in on the CD? Perhaps I'll have to command prompt the sound somehow?

System:

p4 3.6
1gb 667 ddr2
7800gtx
NEC DVD-rw/CD-rw drive.

Thanks in advance.
