Correction:
I started an Open GL game and noticed that the Gamma setting worked there, but it doesn't work in Glide.
There's only one setting for Glide/OpenGL
Any ideas what I can do/try?

I added the registry string as suggested above,
FX_GLIDE_USE_APP_GAMMA to 0 but it didn't have any effect.

Any other suggestions, please?

I've solved the installer problem. The installer had apparently been damaged in some way. I installed Windows Installer 2.0 following this instruction:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;823212

The 3dfx Tools installation worked OK now.

I installed Amiga Merlin 2.9 but that didn't solve the Glide Gamma problem.
I tested Red Baron 3D and European Air War. The problem is always the same.

I'll test to add the registry string this evening.

Hi

I've uninstalled 3dfx Tools and my current drivers and now can't I install 3dfx tools. When I run the 3dfx Tools installation program a Microsoft Installer window appears and after that disapears without installing the tools. I found a method to rename C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield which I tried but it didn't help.
I still can't install 3dfx Tools. I've tried Omega driver 1.03 and Amiga Merlin 2.9 for Windows 98.

What can I do?

Cheers

I've posted this problem as a separate topic.

You can force it to use the global gamma by setting FX_GLIDE_USE_APP_GAMMA to 0 or something in the registry...

I don't have this string in the registry.
What can I do?

Hi

I don't get any effect changing the Gamma settings in Glide/Open GL in the 3dfx Color settings in the Preferences for Voodoo5 5500 AGP. It works fine for the desktop and Direct3D.
I'm using Omega 1.03 drivers.

Any ideas why it doesn't work?

Cheers
