damn.... now i wonder if i didnt upgrade a bit too fast....

i do wish i bought a pci voodoo5 5500 back then, but i guess my two kid brothers could use an upgrade for their current tnt2 vanta...

better then let it collect dust right?

i used the omega drivers. im sure i got 256mbit and 8x1 pipelines. riva tuner confirmed it.

w00t! it works! got a 9800 pro for a 9800se price! w00t!

well, whats your budget?

btw: a geforce fx 5900 XT sells for 180 euro here, thats cheaper then most 9600 XT cards, while it will outperform a 9600xt, and clock a lot higher. dont tell me a 9600 pro is the best bang for the buck... only when making heavy use of FSAA and AF, the 9600xt is the better option.

i think because the chips (=VSA100) use a master/slave configuration. so one chip (primary) is the master, and connected with the agp bus. the second is slave, and only connected to the first chip. this also explains why a agp bridge is needed, since else the v5 6k would have two master chips on 1 agp bus.
anyone correct me if im wrong here...

get a geforce fx XT, if you want the best bang for your buck

i think this is a known problem.
but, many screenshots on this forums are taken with Hypersnap, and Fraps is used a lot too. perhaps you should try those two programs.
let us know the result!

this thread isnt dead.... its just waiting for people to report their findings with the latet 0.51h mesafx, and for Dborca to release 0.51i

*wishes he had the money for a voodoo5 pci

will let you guys know if it really has a 256mbit path, and if the mod works...

well, you arent supposed to use wickedgl with all gamez. i know that IL-2 sturmovik runs best in wickedgl, and there are other examples (i believe counterstrike runs fastest when using wickedgl...)

i think Dborca mean that all his 0.51x releases are beta. an official, stable, release would be called 0.6x (if i remember correctly). just post your findings in this board

quake3: /cg_drawfps 1
unreal Tournament: timedemo 1
quake2: erm... Fraps?

hmmz, you could try amigamerlin 2.9... that is confirmed to work. but i guess amigasport 3.0 should work as well.
