I just purchased a Voodoo2 card to use with the N2 patch file. Does anyone know what the best settings are to get the best picture and *** experience? Id appreciate any help with the batch file settings. Thanks, Johnie

Yeah. I think you need to use the rendition DMA version with a rendition card :-) -- Header intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes.

Not wanting to be a downer but I would have to agree. I have both a V1000 Rendition chip and a 12Mb Voodoo2 and the Rendition version is IMHO much better. You have to remember that Papyrus originally coded N2 to work with the Rendition chips and the 3Dfx is a afterthought. I think the Rendition chipset is one of the most underrate (read undersupported) pieces of hardware out there. Granted it does not have the outright speed of Voodoo but it kicks arse in graphic quality. When was the last time you needed to run a game at 60fps anyway....... I got my V2 to run F1RS and don't get me wrong, I love it but it is not THAT much faster or graphically better than the 2yr old Rendition version of ICR2.... Long and the sort. If you don't have a rendition get the patch, if you do don't worry about it, wait for N3. Anthony Bulloch BRISBANE SIM RACERS [link lost in import: /~abulloch/bsr.htm]
