Hi,
I am FIFA2000 fans. Recently I just bought FIFA2000 and I noticed that my PC cant support play FIFA2000...It cannot get smooth ... I really hope that EA will release the patch for FIFA2000 so the user can configure the graphics feature manually like what you all did for NHL2000. I noticed that all the *.fsh files are created with 24-bit BMP files instead of 8-bit files. That's is the issue why most of the low end system cannot get smooth.. Another problem is because of the shadow of the player...I hope that FIFA will create an option to let users select the details of shadow : LOW, Medium and High....is better if can let us to disable it...It is really smooth after I replace *shadow.t3d with spot.t3d. Spot.t3d is a small t3d file. My system is Cyrix PR 233 (187Mhz) with Intel740 graphics card.. FIFA99 will perfect on my PC(With hardware D3D). But FIFA2000 not...So Hopefully, EA can provide some patches that can make it run well in low end PC. I hardly believe that EA will get more customers especially the users who owned the low end PCs...

Thank You.

I doubt its has to do with you system or the game being to detailed, I have a cely333 V3 3000 and 98MB and the game runs very slow too and I bet it has to do with poor drivers done by EA. And even if you get the game to run fine it wont be enough cause then you will realise that the gameplay sux.

ps: If you want the game to run smoother try software mode.

Software Rendered is a weakness of Intel740...I tried already...It cannot run smooth even in FIFA99...but D3D of I740 is perfect ! That's why we should yell to EA ! Ask them to do something like what they did in NFS4, NBALIVE and NHL2000...all these games have option to let user disable the High Detail....so the game can gains improvement of smooth and speed... Why FIFA2000 and FIFA99 cant ? WHY ?
