Hi there guys! I come to you asking for help. As you all know, we've been testing and working on the upcoming game for some time now, and we've run up against a snag. We're trying to obtain some minimum specifications for the new game, as well as testing it for bugs on various systems. However, we've had some trouble getting our hands on some components for our test computers, particularly video cards.

In particular, we need these cards:

circa 1999
Rage Pro 128 32MB
NVidia Riva TNT 2 32MB

circa 2000
Radeon 7200 (R100 chipset, or the oldest Radeon possible)
GeForce 256 or a GeForce 2


Those are the ones we need most, and most urgently, hopefully by early next week. However, we may also be interested in other cards which support 3D between c. 1998 and c. 2003.

If you have a card that meets those specifications which you may be willing to part with, please email me directly at techsupport@blitwise.com with the subject line "Video Card Request" or something similar. I'll confirm as quickly as I can if it's something we need/can use, and we will gladly pay you for shipping as well as a fair market value for the card that we both agree on.

In addition...if you can help us out quickly and we come to an agreement on one of these cards, you will receive a FREE copy of the upcoming game the very same day we release it! Just to sweeten the pot.

Again, let me know as soon as possible if you think you may be able to help us. This is one of the last things holding us back from the release. We need these specifications and testing.

It's not a file...it's a video card....an actual piece of hardware that is part of your computer.

Don't worry about it, especially if you don't have one. This is mainly just a request from the types of people with three or four old, unused computers in the garage. ;)

If your old memory came from a desktop, chances are that it won't work in your laptop. (Desktops and laptops generally use different types.) :)
