Title: Some Q about Voodoo2 Tweaks/Setup
Post by: max1024 on 24 March 2007, 17:19:56
Hi 2 all Voodoo fans! :)
A have a few question:
1) I want 2 run my Voodoo2 12Mb with (A64 3700+; Georce7900GT) in 3DMark2001SE under WXP or W2K. I've tried some drivers: FastVoodoo2 4.0 XP GE, FastVoodoo2 3.5 XP, LegendgrafiX VoodooMage 2.2.0 but unsuccessfully. GF7900GT appear in 3DMark as first adapter & there is no choice to choose voodoo2. I also use 3Dcharge, but it doesn't run under XP & d3d8-gl-0.08 also unsuccessfully. But there are some results on ORB under WXP. What's wrong ?
2) I also have Pentium-2, so I'm setup W98se & FastVoodoo2 4.6 (for W9X-Me), but 3Dmark recognize my card after submitting result as  Generic VGA card, it's to strange, I'm want to see voodoo2 in project description. So what driver is suitable for my problem?
3)I'm looking for utility which can change LOD Bias. I can cha change LOD parameters through regedit, but it doesn't suitable.
Last Q) here I read about DooM3 & voodoo2 SLI cards. But a can't download Doom3_Voodoo2_Patch [:(] So can somebody give me a work link.
PS sorry 4 possible mistakes, English isn't my native language.

you won't be able to run 3dmark2001se with v2 I think..it doesn't recognise add on cards I think..you can run 3dmark2000...

Are you sure ? So how about this ? There a lot of examples, some of them http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=5657355 one, http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7981080 two & so on.
So I think, that to run Voodoo2 on W2k/XP is possible! The question how ?

You have to select Voodoo 2 as the 3D renderer in 3D Mark 2001se
I've tried , it does run in 98/ME..

but for Win2K/XP, no luck

Why No ? For ex. My system doesn't support W9X & I want 2 run 3DM01 for sport interest to see the result. Of course play old games is better on old PC & old OS. But there is no W9X drivers for NF4Ultra chipset, so I see only the one way.
PS do you run Obsidian2 X-24 under WXP-W2K & 3DM01 IM very interesting in results.
