Yes, good job!

Hi, I need some pictures of the back of the Voodoo boxes (V2,V3,V4,V5). The text should be readable.
I'm sure there was a site somewhere but I can't find it anymore.
Any contribution would be welcome.
Thank you.

Doesn't look too good.

Any details on the framerate ?

Hello.


Can anyone please post 2-3 screenshots of Lotr: Battle For Middle Earth running on a Voodoo5 powered machine ? I would like to buy the game.

And thanks SFFT for all the effort on those drivers.

Ok, Radu, so i installed the sfft 48 and modified the game options as long as the game permitted me because some of the options are locked at "Low" of "Normal" and i can't change them. Frame varies from 0 to 10FPS :DUsually average - 3 fps.

1024 x 768 x "High"

BTW, so you can see..the blood doesn't appear corectly every time, and the hud sometimes tottaly disapears.

BUT IT'S FULLY PLAYABLE AT 640 x 480 (if you have a fast processor and  more than 1-1.5 GB RAM):)The game is hungry of RAM.

Celeron 3 GHz
V5 5500 PCI SFFT 47 + 3dAnalyze (Emulate TnL)
1792 DDR 266

The demo is ~700MB and comes with two levels. I used WinXP sp2 and SFFT 47. I chosed "800 x 600" for the screenshots to be fully viewable.

The game lets you chose between 320 x 240 and up. You can't complain about the framerate on a Voodoo5 on 640 x 480 unless you have a slow processor ( under 2.5 GHz) and low RAM (under 1.5 GB)

The graphics rarely presents glitches on some boxes and transparent windows in the house from the end of level 1 and the hud isn't always transparent but these are minor glitches.

Enjoy:

Level one:


























Now, the second level of the demo...which isn't so playabe as the first one, because the frame drop is huge







Hope you guys with AGP's have more luck.

Bye

Thanx for the info. Anyway, can you tell me where to look to see what's the card's revision number?

Hmm..other new games ? Not really. Didn't tried also. :DI'm a big Quake3 fan, so i play mostly this game (online) in 3dfx mode .

Anyway, another game that works ok with the old SFFT Alpha (36) is Mythic Blades. With the latest driver i can't see the text in the main menu.

So:

SFFT A36

800 x 600
No Shadows
No Character Glow

17-37 FPS






Ah..almost forgot..i'd like some advice from you how to run Half Life 2 (if possible)

Ok, i'll try with the Amiga too but i doubt it will run faster.

(Am luat placa in anul 2000 din Bucuresti de la un magazin, nu stiu daca mai exista acum, si a costat cca. 8 milioane atunci. Am avut de ales intre Voodoo5 si GeForce2, ambele PCI si am ales Voodoo-ul, nu stiu de ce.. Nu stiu pe nimeni sa aiba de vanzare un PCI din pacate. )

Yep, tried the newest but it stucks at the start of the race for about 3 minutes and then crashes to desktop. With the SFFT alpha 36 it enters the race but unfortunately it's almost unplayable (until it freezes again)

(Da, sunt din Romania, mai exact din Braila )

BMW M3 Challenge

V5 5500 PCI + SFFT alpha 36

Playable for ...like..10 minutes..then freezes.
