GPL works with TNT???

by tapi » Sat, 06 Mar 1999 04:00:00

Can anybody tell me whether GPlrgends looks and runs well [ or at all ] on
TNT
based board, It seems that Nascar and GPL only support 3DFX and Rendition.
Basically I'd like to be able to run it in 1024x768 and have it look good
like
Viper racing and of course run smoothly on Celeron 338mhz + Canopus spectra
[TNT ]

GPL runs very well at 1024 x 768 on my TNT equipped system, which is similar to
yours.

My specs:

128 MB SDRAM
Canopus Spectra 2500 TNT graphics card
Win98
Logitech USB WFF wheel

By the way, as an aside, does Viper Racing look better with 3Dfx than TNT
cards? I compare the screenshots on the packaging and in magazine reviews, and
the pics look better than what I see on my screen with my TNT system, in terms
of colour. My screen view of VR, while it looks nice, looks less realistic, IMO
in the sense that the colours/graphics are too vivid/bright/sharp. I run it at
the highest settings.

Well, I don't know Viper looks amazing on my TNT, I don't really see
any difference btw. box pics and what I see on my monitor at 1024x768
So does GPL look as good as Viper on your PC?
And what about GPL frame rates [ In Viper benchmark I get 52 fps on mine ]
