N4 V3000 tnl problem

by Dan » Tue, 20 Feb 2001 23:43:40

When running my V3000 in tnl(D3D) mode the graphics look weird but frame
rate are higher. Is there a setting in my video card setting to change te
graphics to look normal?

Thank You

Dan,

Voodoo 3 3000 doesnt have TnL.  I didnt think it would work at all!

Not entirely true. It doesn't have T&L on the board, but the latest V3
drivers take advantage of the special instructions of the latest
processors (PIII and above) to faster deal with the transforms and
lighting through the usual DirectX T&L functions.

  I have the V5 and it has the same problem.  Noticably(sp?) faster
framerate
but corrupt textures inside and outside the car.  The Voodoos can do TnL but
it's like the old software 3d attempts...
  Easiest way to get a framerate increase is to race online...10 to 20 fps
increase in most cases.
