4th time lucky, downloading WoW update right at this very moment!

The SFFT Alpha 32 (for V3) works fine with WoW ... well, at least it runs. ;) But don't expect to get fluent gameplay and nice graphics -- it looks bad and runs even worse. If you're in, you will have to decrease line of sight to the minimum ... resolution should run fine up to 1024x768x16. Tip: Overclock the card, there's much potential ... 190 MHz should he possible with fat cooling! 166 MHz with every card.

Actually it runs really well... except the "wall hax" lol, i am getting quite high fps in Ironforge on the test realms, (higher than on my parents computer with their 64 mb on board graphics!) I was just wondering if you hguys are giving us a solution to our question of "Will WoW work on my 16 MB Voodoo 3 2000 with no wall hacks, and no instance f*** ups?"

Is there any reason for the big break? I'm looking forward to testing a new excellent driver, so I'm damn curios what's going on. A big new release? Driver programming cancelled? Please tell us, SFFT! :)

Driver development is proceeding at a reduced rate. It will be quite a while untill a new version arrives.

Quite a while? One month? Or 3, or 6, or so?

Hi! :)

Thanks to SFFT for continue the good work!

And now questions:

1 - I have a bug on Arx Fatalis Demo, some texture don't appear (black object or black part of object) but the worst is about cursor: on menus and in game the hand cursor go on a black square.

2 - If I copy the files 3dfxvs.dll, 3dfxvsm.sys in the game directory it will take them or the other under windows?

Thanks for support
Emi

Missing textures might be because of unsupported texture type or too big texture size. Have you tried to adjust game settings (if there are any)?

AFAIK no.

arx fatalis is one game buggy as hell.see the readme,there are some tips on how to improve stuff.and check the configurator,I think the game has a special mode for 3dfx cards..

Ah, ok. :)
Just keep up the amazing work! It would be one of the biggest sacrifices to the community if you stop developing. With your drivers, 3dfx stays alive ...

Pirates of Caribbean Sea crash after a little of loading after clicking on new game.

Important notes:

It use the STORM 2.0 engine
If look the logs (I'll try to attach them if I don't just delete... :(
the game crash after loading some geometry and textures...

I try to rename the geometry and textures where it crash and it skip them try to load next and crash anyway...

I try to use 3D-Analyze but it don't help

Try fullscreen and window mode
very strange no?

Anyone had success in run this game?

Thanks
