Which were the first F1 simulations to support 3D video cards?

Would anyone know which were the first F1 games to support 3D video cards? Thanks, Bob

I think you are right, they had a requirement for a 3dfx card right from the start. dave henrie

And, looking at GP3, you would think it still didn't. =P Milhouse "John Pancoast" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

My guess would be 'Formula1' by Psygnosis; though it wasn't a simulation by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, it was very unrealistic. I had a 3DFX version bundled with my Diamond Monster Voodoo1 card. The game also had a Direct X mode.

Yup, I'm quite sure F1 Racing Simulation was the first... was my first F1 sim to take advantage of my nifty new "Voodoo Graphics" 3D only card at the time. I remember it was a pretty good sim at the time. "Uncle Fester" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > [...] > I'd think F1RS by UbiSoft. Guys? > [...]

That is correct. I was trying to think of the name while making my way through this thread. It was the first game i ever remember that _required_ a 3D card (i.e. no software mode). I remember ABC's Road to Indy was that way too :-D (I've still got that one in my archive, lol) "Ian Foy" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > My guess would be 'Formula1' by Psygnosis; though it wasn't a simulationby > any stretch of the imagination.

From what I can find, F1 by Psygnosis was released on 06/30/1997 and F1RS was released on 3/16/98 :-) "doubleu" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:q8Mi8.2160$[email hidden]... > That is correct.
