MGPRS2 & V3 drivers

Ive installed the latest drivers of Voodoo3 on my system and now MGPRS2 doesnt work well , any suggestion?

Voodoo3 latest driver has some problem to me. Some kind of hickup occurs. But old driver doesn't. I down-graded to older driver. Then there is no problem at all. > I?e installed the latest drivers of Voodoo3 on my system and now MGPRS2 > does?t work well , any suggestion?

MGPRS2 was optimized for Voodoo 2.

NEW VOODOO 3 DRIVERS MAKE SCREEN "SLOWER", ORIGINAL (IN CD) WORK VERY WELL IN mgpRS2, GPL , TOCA2 AND HALF-LIFE. I JUST WONDERING, WHY NEW DRIVERS ARE THERE (3DFX SITE) ANYWAY?

Is there going to be a fix for the V3/MGPRS problem? It is really pissing me off! Iain

I used to have a problem w/a big stutter on my V2, especially when turning with many ads banners in front of me. What worked for me (don't even remember who gave me ths tip) was: -Go to your \Windows\Ubisoft dir -Open ubi.ini in notepad -In the [RS2] section, add a line that says TripleBuffering=YES I'll check to see how my V3 is working - been playing too much H/L and GPL lately ;). HTH! Kendt

OK - just gave it a shot, and yes, it sucks w/the new drivers (go for a spin round Monaco). The solution is really simple, put the old Glide drivers in the MGPRS2 directory (glide2x.dll, glide2x.ovl). I used drivers dated 4/5, which are probably the originals, and the video is *much* improved. Still the occasional stutter in the hairpins, though. Note that this works for any game you want to use the old Glide drivers in.

Can you send me the old glide file, as I don't have it any more? Thanks, Iain
