3Dfx games and patches

4 posts by 4 people · 15 Aug 1997 - 17 Aug 1997

Having just taken the plunge and bought one of these cards (Orchid Righteous) I'd like to find out which games have 3Dfx patches available. Is there a site somewhere that collects them together? The one I want the most (if indeed there is one) is Carmageddon. But what about some of the older games like Screamer 1 or 2, RAC Rally and Nascar. See, now I've converted, I want to get the best from any games I've already got.

Try www.3dfx.com. Yes, Carma is 3dfx patched (beta) available at www.carmageddon.com. Most of the older racers are not, unfortunatly. Most of the companies are working on 3dfx racers but few are out yet. One thing you MUST download from the net is the Moto Racer demo. Oh yeh, get the SOTE (Shadows of the Empire) demo too. They will knock your socks off. Other non-driving 3dfx games I'd reccomend: Flying Corps Jet Fighter 3 Quake if you're into multiplay (single-user is boring) Tomb Raider if you prefer single-play games Joe

Here are a couple of Voodoo related game/news sites. They both get the patches as soon as they're released, and contain links to other sites with configuration info, etc... http://www.voodooextreme.com http://hardware.3dreview.com/3dfx --

Check out http://hardware.3dreview.com/3dfx/newindex.html. They have the latest news and patches out for all the 3Dfx games. The second beta patch is out for Carmageddon, and its pretty good. Andy PLEASE use address below for all email replies.
