Hi...
Finally before almost one month of work, I've my first driver set for v4/5 (under win9x/me) ready. It will be released this weekend (I hope).
After the release I'll be a bit out of the 3dfx scene (real life issues), but all your feedback will be good for future releases.

News in it?... well, now supports "perfectly" titles like:
- Halo (using the InSomNiaN's config file)
- NFS Underground
- Battlefield 1942
- UT 2004
- Tron 2.0 (using 3D-A)
- Pro Evolution Soccer 3
- Rise of Nations
- Call of Duty (using mesafx)
- Euro 2004
- Rayman 3
- Enclave
- Chaos Legion
- Worms3D (using mesafx)
- LOTR: Return to the King (using 3D-A)
- FIFA 2004
- Shangai Street Racer
- 18Wheels
- Star Trek Elite  Force II
- Neighbours from Hell 2
- Doom 3 (using mesafx)
- Against Rome
- Air Strike 2
- Though Trucks Modified Monster
- BloodRayne (using 3D-A)

Very nice, I've been waiting forever for driver updates under windows 9x, but then again, there's only so much that you can work with. It seems like all anyone ever cares about anymore is xp [:(!] Speaking of which, do you plan any such XP release?

Hmm, quick question: is this based on the beta Amigamerlin 3.0 drivers that amigamerlin sent me and never followed up on? I wish he would have told me if they were, I've been messing around with that set for months, trying to get it to work.

No, in fact, this driver set is for Win98/98se/Me users.:)

Well, I guess amp_man means the buggy win98 driver that Amiga has sent months ago to some beta testers. Never got it working though.
Please tell me, is the new driver still based on DirectX-7 or is it DirectX-8 ?

Well, a good mix :D
The thing is, for Dx8 and Dx9 games is necessary to use 3D-A sometimes to emulate TnL, but the results even using it, is better than other drivers sets.

Yep, I was referring to the beta (well, technically I think it would have been alpha...) Win9x version of AM3.0. sorry, forgot to clarify

nice.hitman2 was a bit crashy with am2.9,now it runs fine,and there is no need to force 32 bit colour in the tools.the idiot proof installation is great too:D

It's great to see the halo demo running without even using 3dAnalyze.. buts it always freezes my PC after a few seconds of playing !?! (my PC is a bit unstable due to a bad PSU and summer coming though)

I've noted that running Need for Speed 6 using Raziel
drivers i lose the car chrome effect that i used to
get with the 1.08.04 driver. Any tips?
