get latest amigamerlin drivers (3.1 r11), mix in latest sfft d3d core (3dfxvs.dll and 3dfxvsm.sys), add dxtn.dll (dxtn support for mesafx) and install them.

i now have 3.1 R11 installed but i'm totally unknown with "mixing in latest sfft d4d core and adding dxtn.dll", and then installing them...

where can i find a manual or can you perhaps help me some more[?]

BTW, i'm running the following:

AMD Athlon XP+ 1800
Voodoo 5 5500 AGP
512MB DDR

hey, i'm trying to get CS 1.6 to run as smooth as possible so i checked http://www.shifter.sk/helppage/default_fix.htm#voodoosandcs

first is to make sure i have the latest drivers installed (3dfx's v1.04.01 doesn't cut it i guess) so i downloaded AmigaMerlin 3.1 R1 here at 3dfxzone.it and checked http://www.falconfly.de/info/relnotes-amigamerlin-win2k_xp-31R1-full.txt for help on installing it.

last step according to the text is to set the 3dfx Tools like best preferred but i'm a big b00n when it comes to this so i checked this section of the website: https://www.3dfxzone.it/dir/3dfx/bestsettings/index.htm but it only has a balanced configuration guide for version 3.0.

all this is getting me kinda dizZ so i was wondering what to do.

question: should i?

1: just switch back to 3.0 (cuz cs doesn't need directx 8 or 9)
2: use version 3.0's best settings when setting 3.1?

your help will be very much appreciated
