@@НарекАмиршадян I never tried San Andreas with the Voodoo 3 but I guess it won't work since it is much newer than the old Voodoo 3.

@@ScaleCrawling wow very interesting. I liked and played Viper Racing a lot back then, it certainly was one of the best games of 1998.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 For sure. I bought it in 1999 and was hooked. I met Toon Kersten in the early 2000s and started working on the VRGT demo. I think the demo (or an equivalent "new version of the game" of some sort) is still available on the website "Val's Viper Racing" (Val's personal webpage). Val is another guy that was part of the community since forever. He is known for creating the largest number of cars for the game, and hosting online races for an unbelievable number of years. For decades, literally. He can probably answer any questions you might have.

@@diablogaming6774 in the 3dfx glide version there is no cockpit view, unfortunately. Only in Software mode cockpit view is available.

@@RealHero101111 Quake 3 runs surprisingly well with the Voodoo 3 2000 in 1024x768 maximum details. And Quake 3 not only was released almost 1 year after the Voodoo 3 but it also had very high system requirements for that period.

@@comyxcon4gaming860 That’s true, it looks similar.

The Riva TNT2 was one of the best cards of 1999, it could run Unreal very well with a relatively fast CPU for that time.

@@upgrade1373 both are very nice for 1999 games. The TNT2 though is a lot cheaper than the Voodoo 3 3000.

@@jaceklutrzykowski Thank you!

@@M3n2c3 it wasn't one of the best racing games of that year but still worth trying in my opinion.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay I played this one back in the year 2000 so I thought I should try it out again. It’s a simple arcade racing game, the graphics are nice though for the year 2000.

@@gatopardo4443 well it’s not a great racing game but I thought I’ll try it out since I remember playing it back in the year 2000. I already installed Nightmare Creatures on my retro system but for whatever reason the game runs just too fast and I don’t know what to do to slow it down to a normal speed. Everything moves like 3x faster than it should.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I've been reading about that problem, and I came across this: 'The game logic and some animations are tied to the frame rate, but not entirely. Therefore, although it is possible to play at 60 FPS or more, it is recommended to play at 30 FPS.' So, do you need a program to cap the FPS at 30, like RivaTuner, for example

@@gatopardo4443 Thank you for the suggestion. I will try it out, hope it works :)

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 well its not one of the best games of that time but still worth trying :)

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 even though it is in Direct3D the graphics have something that reminds me of racing games with glide cars that I love 😊

@@druout1944 A Pentium 3 650 mhz with a Voodoo 3 3000 was an expensive high-end system in 1999, it runs really well with high fps in 1024x768.

@@druout1944 it’s one of the best shooters of 1999, you won’t regret playing it.

@@jaceklutrzykowski Thank you!

@@Dudulinek82 hehe. Unfortunately there was no UA-cam back then to see what you have to do next if you got stuck. I played it a lot back in 1999.

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 it was one of the best shooters of 1999, it was very well known back then. It uses the Quake 2 engine.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay I liked and played it a lot back than. It uses the Quake 2 engine but it has more advanced graphics and special effects.

@@66mhzbrain One of the best shooters of 1999 with excellent graphics and special effects for that time. It also has some negative aspects, like: repetitive closed space levels, no diversity among the enemies, also a little too short.

@@joaoc_PT Le Mans 24h clearly is a much nicer more advanced game, but it was also released later. I will have to try it out on my Voodoo cards, I hope it works :)

@@user-en8gw8cp6j I played with the keyboard. Unfortunately I never played it with a steering wheel.

@@50factsabout yes, it is.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 prob should have read the other comments first lol, but thanks still :)

@@50factsabout no problem :)

@@Roddy_Zeh for early 2000 it was an interesting racing game with excellent graphics.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I had that game installed and run after nearly 20 years, but sadly my PC died. Had already completed the GT2 class and was at the GT1, driving the Lister, reached farther than I ever did in my childhood. I miss it...😞

@@Roddy_Zeh I remember I played the demo version a lot back then. I never had the full version unfortunately.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I hear ya. I was lucky to have purchased the full game. But I never could make it run in a more modern computer until I found it again here. I'm not gonna put direct links or else YT will delete this comment, but this is the ID for thr YT vid where I found it, fixed to run on Windows 11: -olcXA4XkSo

@@Roddy_Zeh Thank you. There are so many fantastic games from the late 90s and early 2000s that don’t run on modern PCs… unfortunately a PC from that era is practically mandatory if you want to play them.

@@66mhzbrain yeah for early 2000 it looks very nice and it runs excellent with the Voodoo 3 in glide. But it wasn’t a well known game at that time.

@@mrbagitos now I recognise the voice. His voice sounded very familiar but I did not know from where.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay it's more interesting with voice acting in my opinion :)

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 it has very nice graphics and runs excellent with the Voodoo 3 in Glide.

@@AggressiveMenace of course GTA 3 runs much better on newer faster cards but back in 2002 a lot of gamers still had Voodoo 3 cards. GTA 3 still runs acceptable with the Voodoo 3 even if it was released more than 3 years before the game.

@@jaceklutrzykowski thank you!

@@poweruppete Thank you. The V3 3000 is exactly 16% faster than the V3 2000, in practically all games in 1024x768. The difference is small in my opinion. It would be worth it to upgrade to the V3 3000 only if you can buy it for a low price. Most V3 3000 overclock to around 180-190 mhz so if you reach that frequency with your V3 2000, it wouldn’t make sense at all to buy a V3 3000.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 as I thought. Not much of a win. I offered 80 euros for the card.

@@mundocpc the Geforce 256 was really expensive in late 1999 and 2000. Elsa was a german company as fas as I know. I also have a TNT2 made by Elsa.

I agree 100%.

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 one of the best games of 1997, especially with it’s glide enhanced graphics. Too bad that the maximum resolution is just 640x480.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay It really is a lot of fun to play. I like to play with slower cars again faster ones, like I did in this video.

@@RacerS2 For the year 1997 NFS 2 SE was a very nice racing game with excellent graphics. It only had Software and 3dfx Glide support, owners of Nvidia ATI Matrox S3 etc cards had to play it in Software mode. Unfortunately right now I only have LCDs.

@@Slawemco It’s just the demo version. I couldn’t find the full version but the demo can be easily found.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6Where can I find it?? this demo version?

@@Slawemco yes this is the demo version. You can find it on archive.com.

@@linuxgameplayxp6246 da ii foarte greu in anumite nivele dar cu mai multa experienta te descurci tot mai bine. Mie mi-a placut mult jocul asta, l-am jucat mult in 1998.

@@RacerS2 yes the Banshee is the only 3dfx card that can run with different core and memory frequencies.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 That may be true, I was only referring to a childhood memory of mine. hahah 😅

@@RacerS2 hehe I thought you were talking about the asymmetric core and memory frequencies of the Voodoo Banshee :)))

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 yes it is sometimes difficult but still a lot of fun to play.

@@Dudulinek82 I guess it should perfectly run on a Voodoo 1, the system requirements are relatively low for a 1997 game. It sometimes is very difficult but still a lot of fun to play.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay back then it was very well known. It was an extremely successful game with millions of copies sold. I played it a lot back then, it’s a very fun and interesting game.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I was never into platformers, maybe that's why I missed it. Seems fun though!

@@servantofthealmighty77 those were great times to be a gamer.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I'm in my early 60's I still love to play. I have a RTX GPU still playing RT versions of Quakes. I love it.

@@jayhool5482 one of the best games of the 90s.

@@Duchovicius1983 Quake 3 works very well with a Riva TNT1 in 800x600. The first time I played it was on a Riva TNT and Celeron 400 mhz back in 1999.

@@metalmartin6.6.6 lightmap means higher details then vertex. With lightmap it looks better and runs with lower FPS.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 You're right, my mistake :)
