Title: Need For Speed: Underground demo vs. Voodoo 5
Post by: Raptor on 07 November 2003, 00:44:29
So, has anyone tried it on the brave old v5? I heard it's based on the NFS:HP2, so it shouldn't be a problem right?[?]

Lol, yes it is... just over 220mb.. :)

Anyway, the good news is that it works great on a Voodoo5.  [8D]
Using the 1.07 x3dfx drivers on win98se, no corrupt graphics or any abnomalities.  Quite a fun game too.....
Voodoo5 lives another day :D

@mort
i ran NFS : HP2 under Win98SE/DirX8.1b and my V5 with the Amigamerlin 2.9 and the NuDrivers 5

so under Win2k, i can say only to try the demo with the Amigamerlin 3.0 for Win2k/XP and if you have some difficulties, try the Amigamerlin 2.5SE for Win2k/XP then the x3dfx Voodoo4/5 Win2K V1.07.00 (13 fev 2001) (this is the same D3D core like in the x3dfx Voodoo4/5 Win9x V1.07.00)

ooh, pretty...can't wait to get it now...but why are you in fourth place? oh yeah, and I had NFS:HP2 running fine with the amigamerlin series drivers, back when I had the v5 in my other PC with both XP and 98se. At that time the latest Amigaerlin was 2.5se, but 3.0 should still work.

yeah, uh huh....anyways, how well does it run? What are your system specs? And how does it run if you turn on AA? Finally, does the rear view mirror work? I could never get this to work on nfs hp2.

Ok, here are my system specs :

Pentium3-S-1400
Asus Tusl2-C
512 MB SD-Ram PC150
Voodoo5-5000 @ 166 Mhz
SB Audigy

NFS:Underground is playable at minimum details, set it higher and the game will crash.
It runs a bit slow, you dont get the feeling of velocity, if you know what I mean :D
I tried it with 2xFSAA, no slowdown compared to no FSAA ( dont know why ).
Never tried the rear view mirror, how can I test that ?

Well it might be possible that your PC-150 SD-Ram is a bottleneck to the FSAA performance of your Voodoo5 5000 card, as therefore it doesn't have enough room to breath out its work, a Voodoo5 really starts to get it's performance when u use a 1800+,1800Mhz model CPU and up combined with DDR266/333 Ram.:)

What also is possible is it could be that it would run better on a Voodoo5 5500 AGP 64MB instead of a Voodoo5 5000 AGP 32MB , because the 5000 lacks an extra 16MB per VSA-100, or would the performance be the same[?]

As for the Voodoo5 6000 users around here I supose that you would ge an extra boost because of the 2 extra VSA-100's and 2x 32MB and that may be logic.;)

But the performance of a 5000 compared to a 5500 is that really noticable?

Anyone know the minimun requirements for this game??... because I tried to install it, but my pc crash and after that is impossible ran the game, because the exe file is missing....

anyway... NFS:HSP2 works good on my system, here is a pic... 800x600 no FSAA (for a little problem that I have with my v5 and D3D)...

I ran NFS:HP2 under XP, using amigamerlin 2.5SE. I'm waiting for underground to arrive now so I can give it a shot, I've already got 2k installed on a seperate hard drive waiting (got bored the other day, lol)

Sorry to say it, but if you want to run NFS Underground on a voodoo you have to use Win9x !
