Re: BattleZone patch - awesome! Just installed it and am now playing BZ in 1024x768 SLI mode WITH the big textures and the 3Dfx lighting additions. Wow! First off, you get the bigger screen - very helpful Next, you get dust off the ground and flare effects from unit engines - nice. Next, you get things in the sky! Like stars and the Earth (from the Moon) and clouds (on Mars). Next, you get _amazing_ explosions! When things go boom now, they rock - they rock you and they look great. Next, you get...
