Just for the info: The Timings in the driver .inf were wrong.

For native solution in 1920x1200 @ 60Hz: 2592,2048,2256,1242,1201,1204,4,193160000,6000,8,35871

Hi Folks!

Tried this week to get my old system (Athlon X64, ASRock Dual SATA 2) running again. Works fine so far, but i just can´t get a clear and sharp picture on my 24" screen (connected via VGA).
I´m using a flashed Voodoo5 5500 MAC PCI and tried several drivers (SFFT 1.9, Amigamerlin 3.1). Using lower resolutions is no real improvement eiter ...
What leaves me puzzled: Loaded a few times the latest Knoppix Version on DVD - this Linux build managed an uncomplicated voodoosupport and brings a way better image on screen. No flickering or unsharp letters and therefore no headaches.

Any hints for me?

Damn it!

I tried WickedGl and MiniGl drivers, reinstalled the FV 4.0 and got major problems with other games as well. Unreal looked awful, UT and UT2k4 stuck at startup and Quake3 freezed.

After hours i could manage to clean up this driver mess, but NFS2 still looks like without any filter - i#180;m pissed off. =(

Any ideas?

Thx for the hint!

I tried agian with the .dll#180;s of the fix for FV4.0 and now i runs like hell.

I dont see any 3dfx symbol starting the game, but i#180;m quiet sure it runs now on the V2#180;s - i can choose car details now i the option menu and there are the good old effects like rain oder moskitos splashing against the screen.

But i#180;m still a bit confused. The eges look awfull, is there any way to get a higher resolution or using some filters and anti aliasing?

I played the game on a Pentium 1 and my first Voodoo card (ColorMaster V1) some time and thought that it looked much smoother.

Or was this just the crappy 15 inch CRT?

I#180;ve got the same probleme here.

Yesterday i was kinda "clean up" my 3dfx collection and found in an Intense Voodoo Rush Box a Copy of NFS2 SE.

Now i#180;m trying to get that game runing with 3dfx glide on my main sys (XP Prof. SP1, 2x V2 in SLI mode accel. my 6800GT).

The game runs pretty fine in normal mode - but the hints here (with copying the exe) don#180;t work.

I get an error message - less then 1MB of HDD memory available - and if i#180;m clicking ok i stuck on a black screen.

Heard that maybe it#180;s an incampability with Merlins Drives (using FastVoodoo 4.0 Gold), but i not willing to set up another - it#180;s working pretty fine with unreal, quake and other great classic. ;)

Any suggestion, what i can do to solve this problem?

Hi,

I had exactly the same Problem with my Voodoo2.

Now i managed to get it work with Unreal, but i#180;m a bit disappointed of the result. The textures lock nice, but the edges aren#180;t as smoth as i exspected.

Can I use some AntiAliasing methods? I use 1 V2, do u think its worth to get a second one and play in SLI Mode in higher Resolution?
