In article <vertigoD...@netcom.com>, ver...@netcom.com (Don Durrance) says: >: HAH! >Okay, I'm really starting to get pissed now.. I can't get Quake to >recognize my helmet.

One more thing.. has anyone else noticed how the game >flickers when you turn too quickly in front of Mt. Olympiad? >The coordinates are X:1003 Y:10 Z:500. Thanks in advance.. >-- Okay.. you need to calibrate your Headset and select the modem in the VRSETUP.EXE and HELMSETP.EXE programs.. the Sony Virtuhelm has been known to cause the flickering problems you're describing in front of mount olympiad.. My Mitsmi500 setup has the same problem, except it has a higher threshhold of graphics it can display before it craps out.. (it happens in front of valhalla, usually when you're battling thor or odin) Here's a little spoiler for you.. if you get the magic bridle, it IS possible to tame pegasus in front of the gorgon's lair. Nothing like a flying horse.. I built a stable for it, and usually use my chromatic dragon as a steed. BTW- if you've killed thor, be sure to search his body and take mjolnir, the MOST powerful hammer. Good luck with your headset! Fday
