N2 - Installed 3dfx card and having problems Please Help

by darre.. » Sun, 06 Sep 1998 04:00:00

I just installed a 12mb Diamond monstor 3dII card and then went to the
NROS page and downloaded the N23dfx beta patch. I installed it and ran
the gns3dfx (I have the busch tracks) and it ran but the colors are
very bright and washed out. I know something isn't set right because
there is no way everyone could love N2 in 3dfx if it is suppose to
look like this. LOL! Can someone please tell me what I need to adjust
and what command lines I need to use and where to put them to get the
best performance out of this card for N2? And also, I thought the
Monster 3D II have a TV-out but it does'nt. I have 30 days to return
this card. Does anyone have any recomendations on other card that are
as good as this one that has a TV-out? Thanks to anyone that can help.

As for 3DFX you need to change the gamma settings in your card.  You know go
to Control Panel then Display.

Someone else posted these settings and they seem to work pretty good.

Red= 1.25
Green = 1.15
Blue = 1.0

You set these in your Display properties screen.
