<goes to download>

What 3D engine did they use this time? In the last version they used the MAX-FX engine (the one powering Max Payne).

On another note.. you wont get very far trying to download now.
It was released as of yesterday.. and every mirror server they have listed is overloaded. It's best to wait at least until a few days from now, if not until next week to download it.

I even tried using DAP (registered version)..and almost every server was saying the file was missing (they reached their download max.) .. or that the access was denied. (pay for download service, such as fileplanet.com)

i finnaly got it, i searched on google for "3dmark03.exe" and found alot of mirrors but one was a very fast one, i just forgot which of the 15 it was. i just added them all to flashget and it d/l segments from each server. took me an hr total 2 d/l. now that i have it installed, it loox kewl, sadly, i can only run 1 outof 4 games cuz my vid card sux, and i cant even test either of my procs cuz the min sys req is 1 GHz, so i basically wasted my time... :roll:

btw, i like the system info thing it generates. its in xml, and when i move it 2 a server, local or remote, it wont work! ne idea on how 2 convert xml (with external xsl and css files) to html or xhtml?

God I love DAP (registered version).. hehehehe :cheesy:
Using 'Extreme Acceleration Speed' is great.

I'm downloading 3dMark 2003 at an average of 245kbps :D

It's going to take about 13 minutes to download... mwahahah.
CABLE modems are great too by the way 8)
