and it's buggy and weird. 0_o. i used to play on the Xbox, and i have a Geofrce 8800GT, on full settings. i notice no difference betwen SM1.1 and SM3.0. is this a bug in the game? What do i need to get this game up and going (maps, tweaks, etc)?
oh, and sam's goggles are a bit weird, like they have a weird pixelated effect to them. Unlike the effect in Xbox. Oh, and my flashlight doesnt work in multiplayer. it just doesnt show up. How do i fix this game?

It's your graphics card. It's too new.

of course. last time it was too old. Now it's too new. WTF?! i never heard this before. i can play freakin system shock 2 on here, and that thing is WAY old. >:(

greenday5494

oh, and where do i get the maps? On the offical site, Death Valley, Squat, and DEFTECH 2 are all dead links. Anyone have a non-broken link? Or be nice enough to upload them somewhere if you have them on your HDD?  :-X

I'm with you man.  I got the 8800GT and it does the same thing.  I guess it's not just me that thinks the PC version has more bugs.

A lot of people play the game, even though they've got an 8*00. It's anoying not to be able to see the merc's torchlight, I know, but you just got to get used to it. If anything, it's not a bug in the game, but an issue with the videocard.

Well, I've downloaded all the maps, that have been uploaded to various pages on the net (pretty sure I didn't miss any), and I'll send you some, if you add me on xfire as: sorng (I'll be back home again on tuesday, where I've got my desktop (where all the maps are stored) insted of this laptop). But I'll recommend you to download MR. MIC's Mappack v5 from http://www.splintercellworld.com/index.php?pid=30502 first, since it contains all the most played maps in the multiplayer mode. You could also try out the French site called www.splintercellmaps.com, which has a bunch of the uploaded custom maps, though it can be pretty hard to use, if you don't speak the language. I think you need to make a profile on the site to download maps, but I'm not sure.

Btw, Death Valley, Squat and Deftech 2 are maps for Pandora Tomorrow and not for Chaos Theory.  :)

i thought Steel Squat was for SCCT  ???

oh, and will a 7100 work? I have it built-in on my motherboard, only thing i need to do is change the cords around.

Gawain

wtf is a 7100 XD
yeah steel squat is for ct

greenday5494

or maybe it's a 7200. i dunno. it came with my motherboard, it's integrated. what video card WILL work for both SP and MP, and will look great? i hope a 7100 will. :(

Steel Squat is for CT, yes, and Squat is for PT.  :) - as far as I know, the one for CT was an updated and much better version of the one from PT.

And yes, a 7100 will definitely work.

greenday5494

FUCK YES!

but, will it run SP on full settings? Thanks for all your help. :D

YaYz0r

Depends on how your other specs are.  ;)

greenday5494

5600+ X2, 2GB of RAM, a nice mobo. I think im okay. :D

(BTW i mean full settings, like SM3.0 HDR, Highest w/e. like the screenshots on the back of the box. :P)
