I am not a hardware-guy or hardcore-coder, but I had your problems here
to on my cybervision-64-3D. As this got only 4 MB total memory on the
graphicscard, it might be, that there is no big enough piece of memory
left in one unit, or how should this be explained. Nevertheless, like I
said, I had this problem some time ago and got rid of it with the
solution I told you. When it does not help you, we might start checking
your ENV:-Vars. Please use Tim Hanssons little programm=20
getwarpvars and tell us its output. This might be really usefull for
error detection. Perhaps hyperion wants to link it on their webpage,
too? It seems to be very usefull for bug-reports. (Dont get me wrong, I
dont expect too many bugs in hereticII but for betatesting of future
titles!)

It is better to have tried and failed than to have failed to try, but
the result's the same.
