DISPLAY ISSUES
SOUND ISSUES
- When using an external sound card please ensure that this is turned on
prior to running the game.
-Some controllers may have the start function defaulted to another button on
the controller instead
of Start. Typically, these controllers have 10 buttons, where the 10th
button is the start button.
In order to change this, enter the Controller Assign screen then select the
Controller Configuration
menu. From here, an action can be mapped to a different button.
WHAT IS DIRECTX?
DirectX is an API (Application Program Interface) that allows games designed
for Windows 98/2000/Me/XP
to have access to your hardware through a standard interface. Without a
standard interface, stable
compatibility between games and your computer's hardware would be virtually
impossible. With DirectX,
game developers can write for this interface, and let your Windows
98/2000/Me/XP DirectX compatible
drivers "talk" to your computer's hardware. Urban Freestyle Soccer requires
DirectX 9.0 or greater.
Refer to the following Microsoft link for more general information on
DirectX.
http://www.microsoft.com/DirectX/default.asp
WHAT IS DIRECT3D?
Direct3D is a universal API from Microsoft providing a standard interface
for programmers to access
your 3D hardware without having to write for specific devices. Most 3D cards
support Direct3D.
The latest driver package for your card should contain Direct3D drivers for
your video card.
NOTE: You can install DirectX 9.0 from the Urban Freestyle Soccer Disc. Go
to the DirectX9 folder on
the CD and double-click on DXSETUP.EXE to run the DirectX setup utility.
IV. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. When I try to play Urban Freestyle Soccer, the game will quit and return
to the desktop. What should
I do?
If you are having trouble running Urban Freestyle Soccer, make sure you have
the most recent drivers
available for your video card(s). Consult your video hardware documentation
for information about where
to find the latest drivers -- usually they can be downloaded from the
manufacturer's website.
2. I cannot perform skill moves with my controller, which has six buttons.
Why not?
Urban Freestyle Soccer requires an seven-button controller in order to play
the game correctly.
It will work with less than seven, but the user will not be able to perform
all the moves that are
included.
Enter the Game Options and Game Effects screens in the Options menu. Here
you will find a number of
options that can be altered. Lowering or turning off some or all of these
options based upon your
PC specification will enhance game play and speed up the action on slower
machines.
For example lower the anti-aliasing to 0X and lower the character Detail and
Texture Detail to Low.
4. I get an error message that states, "D3D9 application. Could not find any
compatible Direct3D devices.
Sample will now close." What does this mean?
This means that your DirectX version is old and incompatible with Urban
Freestyle Soccer.
Update to DirectX 9.0. You can install DirectX 9.0 from the Urban Freestyle
Soccer Disc.
Go to the DirectX9 folder on the CD and double-click on DXSETUP.EXE to run
the DirectX setup utility.
Yes. Urban Freestyle Soccer requires that the disc be in the CD drive during
the game.
Taking the disc out during a game will cause the program to cease operating.
V. SAVE GAMES
-Urban Freestyle Soccer saves the game in a separate folder, apart from the
rest of the installed data.
In Windows 2000 and XP, the folder can be found by following this path in My
Computer:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Urban Freestyle Soccer.
Application data
is sometimes listed as a hidden file. In order to view this folder, select
Folder Options under the
Tools menu, select the View tab and make sure that "Show Hidden files and
Folders" is selected.
In Windows 98/Me, this can be found in the directory that Urban Freestyle
Soccer was installed into.
-Do not exit the program while the game is saving. Doing this could cause
the loss of the previous
save data.
