    Default A setting that made NEOCRON stable for me.

    I was getting allot of System Errors and Software Errors and pretty much any other crash that randomly closes the game with a cute little pop up telling you absolutely nothing of what actually caused it.

    The culprit here is the Transform & Lighting setting in Game Options. Found in:

    Game Start Screen > Option > Video > Transform & Lighting.

    Setting this to “Hardware” rather then “Software” (which seems to be the default for some reason ) stopped the System Errors for me and the game is allot more stable in general now.

    I suggest you folks try this as there seems to be allot of complaints about game crashes.

    My system:

    Windows XP Pro
    Pentium 4 - 2.4 Gig
    GeForce Ti4200 128RAM
    512 PC400 DDR RAM
    Onboard Sound

    The same fix worked on my old computer as well which was:

    Windows ME
    Athlon T-Bird 800
    Asus A7V Board
    GeForce2 MX 32RAM
    512 PC133 RAM
    Sound Blaster Value

    "Software" was default? For me "Hardware" was default, but when I set it to Software I gained quite a few fps

    So I tried somthing and installed neocron on one of my IDE drives (mostly scsi in my pc) with the effect that if you use "Software" you gain even more fps when using scsi

    Thanx for the hint!!!

    Ah ive had the same experience! Software gave me better frames.

    The trick is to turn on D3D T&L in the F11 in-game menu. Then you will get your frames back and them some. You will also get to see more distance. For me the "D3D T&L" setting doesnt effect game stability but "Transform & Lighting" does.

    So i have
    "Transform & Lighting" set to Hardware.
    "D3D T&L" set to ON.
