I haven't played it in a couple months. I do have the patch, and I used to
be able to use my Voodoo 3 3000. Now whenever I change the graphics card
(within the game in the options menu) to 3dfx from the default none, it
tells me that no changes will occur until I restart the game. When I restart
the game it defaults back to none. I can't get the card to work. This did
not happen at all when I last played the game. Any suggestions? Thanks in
advance.

Check if your app.ini file is write protected. That prevents GPL from
storing the options.

You can also try to manually change the app.ini file:

lastRasterizerDLL = rast3dfx.dll into lastRasterizerDLL = softdll.dll

Don't bother responding. I figured it out 2 minutes after posting this
message. It was a problem with the graphics card and the way I had it set
up. I had made some changes and forgot to change them back. Sorry.

Thanks anyway, but it's not that complicated. See my own reply.
