I run GPL version 1.2 and WinVroc 2.1 with Vroc Fix.
I have the very old (over a year and a half i think) OPEN GL drivers from
Papyrus. Runs on my 32 MB Creative 3D Blaster Savage 4 video card that does
not support 3DFX.
I get much better frame rate now, much better graphics, but I get lock ups
whenever I press F10 to change view, and replay color is all **** up! If I
mess with resolution settings the game mode will go screwy in color as well.
I have played with the core.ini values but they have no effect on these
problems...anyone?

I think you mean it doesn't support the 3Dfx API, known as Glide.

direct x 7 ?

Yes, I have Diredt X  7.0a  and the latest drivers for my card (3ds4w9x). So
is there help out there for me?

I've downloaded both BETAS (first one from Sierra and second one from PITS) and
the files inside are all dated 10/28/98 and the same exact size so it doesn't
matter which beta you get.

Is that the first or second OpenGL BETA you're using?
