Grand Prix Legends and Win2K with Voodoo3?

by st.. » Mon, 03 Jan 2000 04:00:00

Well, I've installed the beta Voodoo3 drivers from 3dfx for Win2K but I
still can't get GPL to work. Nascar Racing 3 works great...
I get past the 3dfx splash and the Sierra Sports intro screen in GPL
then this http://www.racesimcentral.net/

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

You must use the unofficial 3dfx patch that was written to fix Banshee
problems but works also with V2 and V3. I got the same screen as you and
after using this patch it works on W2k for me. Here's the link:

Read the readme.txt! It's not a perfect solution but at least it works.

P.S. What verison of W2k are you using? Where are the beta W2k drivers form
3dfx?

I'm running 1024x768 and all is fine in a race but everywhere else I
have a small 640x480 area in the top left corner of my screen for the
menu system...

PS - Win2K build 2195.  The beta Voodoo3 drivers for Win2K from 3dfx are
located here http://win2kbox.8m.com/files.htm  Remove the .zip after you
download them - they are really .rar files.
