Hi,
I'm a new and proud owner of FS, and glad to see that there's such an active community!
I have 2 problems with the game though...
1) in the missions i can't get the guns to fire (yes, i've tried "a"-"1" ) - they work fine in the scramble mode though
2) I have a voodoo 3 3000PCI, and when I select glide, the screen goes blocky, like it overlays screens on top of each other Also, with direct3d it's started dumping me to windows every so often... any ideas?

Are the guns not firing or just not making sounds? I have a slow (P266) cpu and in crowded missions the sound cuts out. Overloaded sound/video or something.

What's your FPS when this happens? This is a good clue. If around 12 or lower than your missions are too busy for your hardware.

P.S. Don't be surprised if you get mistaken for someone else. We already have a Razor and a Razer (I think that's how they spell their names).

Oh well, the caps R at the end usually helps recognition
I don't have the FPS, (@ work, will check) but I suspect they're not the problem - there's no delay, everything looks nice and smooth - you'd hope so on a 400MHz machine
I hear clicking sounds, I hear them occassionaly through the gunfire in scramble, but you can see the tracer in scramble, not in the missions The ammo-count doesn't drop either...
do you have to 'clear' the guns, or unjam them somehow?
Oh, I have applied the 1.5 patch...
