Use the leatest final version of the official 3dfx drivers. And yes, you can use WickedGL.

place the latest mesafx opengl32.dll to your spearhead folder,together with this glide3x.dll:
http://www.3dfx.cz/download/glide3x_v345.zip

wickedgl works as well,you just need to install it correctly.see here:
http://www.shifter.sk/helppage/default_fix.htm#wickedgl


and one more thing (actually two): try to use the edit button (http://www.3dfxzone.it/enboard/icon_edit_topic.gif),and please stop using multiple question marks,its driving me nuts.

Sorry about the two things.....[:I]
And, the WickedGL is actually does not work!!!!!![|)]
That means it can load into the game,
but the game screen is very nasty....[B)]
So many texturing errors~~~~~~~~[xx(]
So dark~~~~~~[|)]
Trees become red in colour~~~~~
Men become brown in colour~~~
And something like that.....[xx(]

Did you try to start a new game instead of a saved game ?  Maybe I'm wrong.  I understand that you update your drivers and trying to play your saved games...  Usually you can't do that. It's like patching the game.  The saved and the restart doesn't match.

Oh~~~I see....
You mean that restart the mission I am playing now?
Or, restart all the missions(start a new single player game)?

naah,the 8mb shouldnt really matter (hitman3 shouldnt run on anything lower than 32mb hw tl card and yet it runs on a single voodoo2 without much trouble).but make sure you are not trying to run the game in 32-bit color or something like that.basically,try setting all graphics options as low as you can,including the resolution..

The MesaFx does not work.....
No matter how I low the settings!!!!!!![:(]
However, the official 3dfx drivers(OpenGLICD 1.0.0.0761) work!!!!!! :D

As I see it, you're able to start the game and to play in the config and it fails when you load a saved game[8]! I'll try a new single player game[?] !

if the original Opengl icd works, then ONE or MORE of the mesafx releases is bound to work....  just the latest mesaFX doesn't seem to work for you.

Anyway, the OpenGLICD driver is much smooth than the MesaFX driver in the Medal of honor:Spearhead........;)
More FPS too.........[:I]

Hi guys:D
I remenber when I run spearhead with my V3, it run with 761icd, wickedgl 3.02 and mesafx (it was 5.x). But I did patch the game!
So, Teff, apply the latest patch and see how it runs. (But your saved games may not be compatible)[:p]
By the way, wickedgl was by far the fastest, but it had gun flashing problems[xx(]

But, I don't know why, the game cannot be patched.......[xx(]
Anyway, What is you patch version?????????[?]

I don't have the game installed anymore:D, but I think it patches itself  when you install the spearhead expansion (to 1.11 or sth).
Maybe an uninstall and fresh reinstall the game would help. (You can keep your saved games)[:p]
