Realizm driver and AutoCAD applications. The Heidi driver
provides improved performance and compatibility with AutoCAD
applications and the hardware acceleration of the Wildcat
Realizm video card through the use of OpenGL.
Installation Help
=================
To install the Heidi driver, run the setup.exe program on the
product disk. This program will install the Heidi driver for the
supported Autodesk Applications.
To use the driver, you must configure the properties settings in
your Autodesk application to use the Heidi driver. Consult your
application documentation for configuring the application to use a
Heidi driver.
Note:
If the Heidi driver does not install for a particular application,
this means that the setup program did not find a valid registry
entry containing the path to install the driver to. You can simply
copy the appropriate ".hdi" driver file to the "\drv" subdirectory
located in your application's installation path. The version of
the hdi file can be determined by right clicking on the file and
viewing the file properties.
