I do not know a similar tool for 3dfx Voodoo3: i will think it over therefore.

If you need i'm here.

Bye bye

Some of these reg key are already used and user can modify by 3dfx Tools, others can be added (sure). Only a thing: plus functions driver runs less compatibility there is...so need a optimal choice about reg settings created at installation time and that normal user could not change.

Bye bye

Colourless FSAA Selector is between Voodoo5 utilities on the site, together the great GlideXP kit : so advanced 3dfx users can optimize antialias filter performance.

Therefore thank you for hint

Bye bye

Sorry for delay: read here

This driver setup is to get a balanced level of performance and quality

OS: Windows XP - 3dfx Voodoo4/5 cards


SYSTEM

-AGP command fifo: 2x or autodetect

-Highest quality video: enabled

-Refresh optimization: disabled

-Via chipset: performance


DIRECT3D

-3d filter: quality high

-Alpha blending: sharper

-Auto mip mapping: enabled

-D3D guardband clipping: enabled

-Anti aliasing: fast performance if you like run games at high
resolution, else 2X enabled (until 1024x768 resolution) or 4X (lower resolution suggested).

-Edge aliasing: enabled

-Level of detail bias: 0

-Maximum buffered frames: 1 pending buffer

-Mip mapping dithering: disabled

-Rendering color depth: software controlled

-Speed setting fastest v-sync: disabled

-Trilinear filter: disabled

-Triple buffer: enabled

-Z buffer optimizzation: enabled


OPENGL/GLIDE

-16 bit depth precision: fast

-32 bit depth precision: fast

-3d filter quality: high

-Alpha blending: sharper

-Anisotropic filter: 4 tap

-Anti aliasing: as for D3D games

-Edge aliasing : enabled

-Force 16 bit texture: disabled

-Force 3d now! instruction: on

-Force mmx instruction: on

-Force voodoo rush emulation: disabled

-Glide 32bpp rendering: software controlled

-Glide guardband clipping. enabled

-Glide refresh rate (monitor dependent)

-Glide triple buffer: enabled

-Hidden surface removal: disabled (enabling yuo could see visual artifacts)

-Legacy texture compression: enabled

-Level of detail bias: 0

-Limit texture memory: disabled (enable for compatibility with old
games)

-Maximum buffered frames: 1 pending buffer

-Mip mapping dithering: disabled

-OpenGL guardband clipping: enabled

-OpenGL culling: enabled

-Speed Setting fastest v-sync: disabled



Of course you'll be find not all settings in your driver control panel because some features are typical of  VIA based motherboard only: just reply what is on in your 3dfx Tools.

Make a control about frequency refresh: you must verify that the card refresh matches monitor specs.

Use 3dfx Tools included in 3th party drivers as Amigamerlin 2.5 SE release.

Welcome to forum.

Bye bye

Try Direct3D 8 to OpenGL Wrapper located at 3dfxzone.it 's Voodoo2 Utilities page (MS DirectX 8.1 or above are required).

Follow a tool screenshot:

Bye bye

Which driver do you use for 3dfx card ?

Bye bye

I suggest to upgrade your OS to Windows XP: in fact for this platform Voodoo3 3500 drivers have less compatibility issues with DirectX 8.x and above than 9X/ME releases. Use AmigaSport 2.0 3500TV-XP driver for 3dfx V3 setup under XP.

Welcome to forum.


Bye bye

Our beta testers are working: we want get a good level of performance and stability so you have to wait. When drivers will be ready we give announcement at site home and you could download.

PS: welcome in 3dfxzone.it en board.

Bye bye

Ok,

i will see if working on banshee is possible (time problem at this moment) to solve TMUs question with GLide api's. This could require some new libraries banshee dedicated.

later

Bye bye

Ok
