Track Textures,

I have been reading about all the new track textures for GPL and I am curious. I use whatever came with the track, usually the one for a higher speed machine (AMD 900 Voodoo 5). Do these things work for a voodoo based system? Does it slow GPL down any significant amount? What is the 4 bit and 16 bit buisness? What happens if I get a new Video card (considering the ATI at this point)? Thanks guys.

I was able to use the 16 bit track textures with a V5. I don't know if a V3 will handle them tho. The frame rates do drop off, but I had a PIII 500 at the time so I can't say how much. You probably would have to choose between the fancy tracks or updated cars...I tried the 3dwheels for about 10 minutes one day....my system back then couldn't handle any of that framerate/wise. dave henrie "Raymond L Day" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:FX8n8.17459$v%[email hidden]...
