right, GP3, warez, pre-ordered.....blah blah blah. Right, I've got a Voodoo 3, and I just can't seem to get the track/tarmac textures to appear right. They're just not detailed enough. Then in the wet it looks okay from in-car, except the puddles all have squared off edges, and from the TV view it looks like this ==> http://www.glasseyemoney.cwc.net/oddpuddles.jpg and this is the huge problem I need to fix. I've got the latest V3 drivers, but there's just no improvement. Any advice is appreciated David C (R4)

Hmmm well incar the wet track looks great, as far as detail on the road surface dry... dunno about that. In my display properties/advanced/3dfx Advanced Features/Direct3D i have the following settings. 3d filter quality = High Alpha Blending = Automatic LOD bias = 0 Zbuffer = enabled Martyn_D R4 wrote:
