    1 - Just purchased unreal tournament today and the game looks great, plays very smoothly at 60fps. However, my concern is the opening cinema when u start campaign. I don't know if I'm imagining things but the video quality on that intro doesn't look right. In fact, I'll also say the same thing about the cinema on war craft 3 frozen throne. it looks... like somewhat pixilated. unreal doesn't look pixilated but it feels blurred or stretched. I dunno.

    any suggestions on this?

    2 - alt tab out and I can't restore the game. I'm forced to end the process......

    3 - I doubt anyone can answer this one. I use my Wacom for everything including games. I use the mouse (not the pin). If u are not aware of how the mouse works, the tablet I guess has sensors that pick up the mouse motions. Its pretty cool. anyway, whenever I scroll (which is suppose to switch between weapons), the camera jumps. Sometimes it does a 90 degree turn, sometimes 180, or I end up looking down on the ground. Any idea y this might be. I tried a couple settings but not seeing anything about scrolling other then scroll speed and functions which is well... scroll.

    k guys, about the wacom mouse, I found the solution HERE.

    However, I'm not understanding exactly what he did. If someone does understand, can you please clarify for me? thanks.

    What good software do you use to measure game FPS?

    good software? well, I've only used Fraps. I believe I get about 45fps and up with AA 8 and AAmode on medium in CCC.

    edit - video cinema plays at a constant 30fps.

    ok, got my wacom working with UT3. I was suppose to add a key function to the wheel. so [= up and [ = down. then set [] to switch between weapons in the game. So basically, the scroll on the wheel does more then just scroll.
