SCGT and V3 TV Out

3 posts by 2 people · 08 May 1999 - 08 May 1999

Has anyone tried this? I can't get it to work. Is there an option I am missing. I want to record my runs on video tape.
Just open the Display Properties dialog from your desktop. Then select Settings -> Advanced -> 3DFX TV - Enable output to TV. Then go play SCGT. This works for me. One note: make sure you disable the TV out before you shutdown windows. At least for me, if I try to restart Windows with the TV out enabled Windows freezes. Then I have to restart in safe mode, switch the display to 640x480 16 color, restart, and reinstall my Voodoo3 drivers. It's a real pain in the ass. If anyone has any advice about this, it would be greatly appreciated. >Has anyone tried this? I can't get it to work. Is there an option I am >missing. I want to record my runs on video tape.
Actually I have problems with the actual display output going to the television. The video goes to my VCR then my television. I can see the menu screens on the television but when I go into replay, the television screen blanks out. Neil from another newsgroup suggested that I lower the resolution of the game to 800x600 or below, because he stated that the Voodoo3 TV out is limited to 800x600. At the moment I haven't tried it and will try it as soon as I finish typing. Thanks for the help. >Just open the Display Properties dialog from your desktop.
