Main Questions -------------- To view information on the FAQ's, please visit the EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL website at http://www.euroleaguefootball.com 1. Most of the sound in EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL is inaudiable. What is the problem? When you are running EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL in f3dfx, it is possible that the drivers are using too greater bandwidth on the bus. To solve the problem, install the latest 3dfx drivers. 2. I installed DirectX7 during the installation of EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL, but now I am not able to use my 3D Video Card when executing EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL. This is possibly a result of using video card drivers that aren't compatible with DirectX. Please visit your card manufacturers website for the latest driver information for your card. 3. I have a Joystick connected, but EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL fails to recognise it when I play. Test the configuration of the Joystick in Windows. Go to "Settings" .... "Control Panel" ... "Game Controllers" and check that the Joystick is correctly configured. 4. Various video resolutions that are displayed on the Configuration screen, but I am not able to use them all. EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL uses DirectX to obtain which screen resolutions are within your video cards performance. It is possible that the drivers inform DirectX that the card is capable of performing several resolutions, but the hardware itself is incable of functioning with them. This is something that occurs with many 2D Video cards when running in software mode. 5. Mo matter what, I am unable to get my card to function with EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL. Try to run the DirectX diagnostic, which was installed when you installed DirectX. To run the DirectX diagnostic, open the directories "Program Files".... "DirectX"... "Setup".... and run the program "Dxdiag.exe". 6. The screen goes black for around a minute when I enter the simulator. This is when your computer is loading all the necessary information required to play the match, with the options that you have selected. The sound, for example, is likely to take around 15 seconds, depending on the speed of your computer. 7. The simulator is jerking. ¿What is the solution? EUROLEAGUE FOOTBALL had problems choosing the best configuration for your computer, and therefore, it is possible that the game is not running at optimum performance. Attempt to run the game with a variety of options: Select the "Configuration" icon on the "Match Type" screen, and try without Ambience sound, a lower quality of 3D sound, without the referee and linesmen, without shadows, etc. If for some reason you are still having problems, and the game isn't running correctly, contact the Helpdesk service.
