Title: Help with Gold 4 XP Drivers.
Post by: Mr Frizbee on 27 March 2004, 15:46:49
Hi,

I'm using a Creative 3d V2 card with the Gold 4.0 drivers of XP. I can't get the resolution in glide up 1024x786@85 hz. Ho do I install the reg file from the tools folder to get this setting? My 2nd problem is, when I try to play the game Red Baron 3d in glide mode I get very distorted graphics - very patchy and blocked looking

Ideas?

No, two identical 3dfx Voodoo2 in Scan Line Interleave connnection are requested to playing at 1024x768 with DIrect3D*/GLide/OpenGL  games. You can use Creative MiniGL to set 1024x768 with one Voodoo2 but this is possible with some games only (all these Quake2 based like Quake 2, Heretic 2 etc...).

The "problem" has been "seen" here :

RedBaron 3D uses Glide2, i guess.
Or you change all the driver (perhaps not the right solution) or you change only the glide.x.dll (before back up the original glide).
Begin in first with the glide2x.dll since this is "Glide2 to Glide3 Translator DLL".

So do you need a driver change or just a glide driver change for RB3d?
Wha glide.dll does fast voodoo use and what should I change to use the fast voodoo driver?

Thanks from hearse
