So, can someone please elucidate me once and for all:
i've a laptop, and when playing the game, i've got the problems with the leaders' faces (only eyeballs, teeth and pieces of clothing), the black terrain issue, and sound/graphic cuts in the intro and wonder movies. The black terrain was the most serious one, and i managed to play the game by changing one .xml file (can't remember which, right now). That reveals the whole map, but it's playable (putting aside the fact that you always have fog of war around you), as you still dont know were your future friends and foes are.
Reading this thread, i guess i don't have the TnL stuff required for this game, or other games which use that technology. My video card it's a Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphics controller, with 64 MB of video RAM. If it does not have, or it's compatible with TnL, as i guess it isn't, is there a way of upgrading this video card that you know of?
Thanks in advance
