V3 upgrade.

5 posts by 4 people · 28 Jun 1999 - 29 Jun 1999

Hello, I have ordered a new V3 2000 PCI card for my silly Compaq because my V2 distort my windows picture too much. I should mabye have asked this question before ordering but here goes: My main sims and games are: GPL, Midtown Madness, SCGT, TOCA2, MGPRS2, GP2, and uh, well i think that is what i play most nowdays. Are there any problems with this upgrade with those games? Or is it more like at try and see and if I'm unlucky get a fix somewhere? Thanks. -- Olav K. Malmin remove spam when replying

Hi Ed, no, it works without any patch or older glide2x.dll. Only GPL strikes in higher resolution over 640x480 with crazy colors, but thats ok, so i ever drove in this resolution online to save performence. All other games works great up to 1024x768 like NFS4, Midtown Madness. MfG, Stefan M?rkels VISIT LeGeNDS - The CompuServe GPL Racing League http://www.royalberkshire.demon.co.uk/

I have a Voodoo3, it works great on GPL, Midtown Maddness, and MGPRS2. I don't have the others, but I think GP2 is not a 3D accelerated game so it should run just fine with the Voodoo3.
