Hi all,

I've just loaded my nice new copy of cfs3 onto my pc and it don't work . I get the message Configuration override file out of date. Re run cfs3.

I've uninstalled and reloaded, but the same message appears.

Can anyone help...

Pc is a duron 650mhz with 512mb ram and using an Nvidia Geforce 4 MX 440SE video card..

open up your CFS3 config (Start>Programs>MS Games>CFS3>CFS3 config) Let the info load in the config window. then click file and then click custom settings, which should be checked but click it anyhow. then click file and exit. now check it it worked

Sorted.....

Many thaks OZ.

Hi S2j,

For $150.00 you can probably slap a PIII_1.4GHz in your computer. Then a Radeon 9700 Pro and you'll be CFS3 simming much better. Just a suggestion.

"The PL-iP3/T is an innovative upgrade adapter that enables Slot 1 systems (including those based on Intel Celeron, Pentium II, and Pentium III CPUs) to use the newer "Tualatin" Celeron and Pentium III CPUs. With the PL-iP3/T, you can obtain significantly faster performance (up to 1.4GHz) from your Slot 1 system--without replacing the motherboard."

Then click on where it says "Desktop", then "Slot 1", then "PL-ip3/T". I think your 650 Duron is a slot 1. If it's a socket 370 then click on that.

If you run the "Quick CPU Upgrade Finder" there you can find out for sure. I upgraded my buddy's Gateway 450 with the PowerLeap PL-ip3/T, 1.4GHz and he's very pleased.

Good luck.

Hi bobc1,

have now got it sorted, with all graphics sliders on 5, graphics are amazing..... the way the light moves over the contours of the plane, especially the Go229 is unbelievable

I do have an athlon 1.5GHz on the way, so hopefully this will improve things even more...

cheers

Cool, you can't have too much computer power when it comes to CFS3!

The lighting is quite impressive. I have a Radeon 9700 Pro and the graphics, especially the planes really look good.
