Hi Ruud, Yes in D3D mode, no in Glide mode.(For Glide you need a 12Mb card). Remco

>This is what confuses me... I got***pit view fine in NFS3 and I have a 6 meg >voodoo1... so I think that 12 meg thing might be wrong :-) Hi Brian, You are right, a Voodoo1 with 6 Mb will display the***pit too. This is due to the 4 Mb texture memory, not common in a Voodoo1 card. A Voodoo2 8Mb only has 2Mb texture memory too, that's why you need a Voodoo2 12Mb (4Mb texture memory) to display a***pit. Since a Voodoo1 with 6Mb is hard to get, I decided not to mention it. Remco
Depends on your concept of "hard to get." Canopus is the ONLY manufacturer I'm aware of that has a 6MB V1, but they ARE available thru their website and off the net. LOVE mine, but I've never found a use for the extra texture memory until WW2F (and MIGHT get NFSIII). Still, it's the Cadillac of V1's (or V2's) - and priced accordingly. My Pure3D 1 even has TV out (though I lost the cable so I haven't had to the chance to test out NR99 on my 27" console that's next to my computer <G>). "Gunner" ORSA Bronze #78 Navy Dodge truck

Hi Ruud, hi Remco and all others, I have a 16MB Voodo Banshee and the Banshee Patch installed. How do i choose between D3D and Glide? In my 3dsetup is only the choice between 'MaxiGamer Phoenix' (Banshee) and 'Software Renderer'. Thanks Udo to reply remove the NOSPAM from my adress

Right click on your NFS3 icon, and look at the "Target" line under the shortcut tab. At the end of that line (after "nfs3.exe"), put a space and add -d3d0 (that is a zero at the end). That will run in Direct 3D mode. Todd

Using the Viper, yes. Using the Voodoo1, no. -Larry
