I tried the new tr64ogl, it is very slow on my voodoo3 card, I believe 3dfx probably has never done a faster ogl engine for voodoo3.

This is not a complain, but just want you know this.

And it crashes every time I close emulator, may this is also a voodoo 3 only problem.

btw, forget to mention. As I play Zelda1, the color is very nice, beautiful, much better than Jabo's D3D on voodoo3. No saying Jabo's is not good, just color is never correct in Zelda on my PC. (This is my voodoo 3's problem, not Jabo's problem.)

Heh, you are very careful not to insult Jabo :) I think V3 OGL drivers are better than V3 D3D drivers...

I think the same, but V3 OGL is too slow and D3D is much faster, probably this was because 3dfx was bought out and no one cna do further better driver for v3.

I tried the new_tr64_ogl plugin, the graphix is great on my voodoo3 2000 except it's very slow. Hope the new release will be better!!!

Hey Rice!

I found someinfo about using OpenGL on the 3dfx video cards. I hope this will let me make a 3dfx version of my new opengl plugin.

Cya,
