G200 and GPL (D3D Patch)

by ? Karsten Borcher » Thu, 20 Jul 2000 04:00:00

Just finished assempling my secondary PC. (PII 450, 128Mb, Matrox G200)
Now I installed GPL on it.

Anybody outhere had any luck getting the G200 to work with GPL using the D3D
patch ??
Tried the 5.52 drivers (No text in the game, and crashed badly when trying
to enter track)
5.41 (Text shows, but crashes when trying to enter the track)

What driver version do you use, and what setting in the core.ini ??

I have a G400 with the Beta drivers (v6)
I was starting to panic too - thought GPL may have been a waste...

Of course now I'm having to buy a Logitech FF Wheel and pedals...

I'll try that...I got the same thing as the other guy, no text and crash
when entering the car.  Was there a bunch of black silouhettes in the
replay window in yours too?  (I use 5.52 or whatever the latest is...)

Of course, I have a V2 next to the G200, but I think it'd be cool to at
least see which one can do better...
