Hi all, I think, most of all can't read the word Voodoo anymore:). But I have one question to that theme. I will get my Voodoo3 200-PCI in the next days. What Glide-driver should I use for GPL:): the one that comes with the card or an other one?? Thanks in advance Dirk --------------------------------------------- [link lost in import] [link lost in import]

Hello, Yes, I'm using the glide driver that came with the unit, no problems. Just make sure you install 3dfx tools from the installation cd. You'll have to change "limit texture ram to 3 megs" in the settings. Works great.

I just plugged one of these units in, and I'm getting some wackyness in the textures. Some of the trees are missing their tops and I've got some strange shadows running across the track. Sorry if this has already been addressed here, but I was ignoring the V3 advice until yesterday. Don McCorkle Libertarian Motorsports

Sorry, It should read limit texture ram to 2 megs. Not 3, opps. These settings will be in your display settings in the control panel, after you install the 3dfx tools from the installation cd.

Nevermind, someone posted a link to a fix an hour later. Thanks Don McCorkle Libertarian Motorsports
