    It's kinda stupid. 3dfx Voodoo is not a graphic card, just 3d accellerator, which is not used anyway whatsoever running Doom, which is not a 3D game in the first place....

    • @themax4677
      @themax4677 Рік тому +57

      In the case of a Voodoo 1or 2 yes, however, it is running a Voodoo3 which has its own onboard 2D accelerator so it is doing the 2D drawing. That said, I'm pretty sure Doom is much more dependent on the CPU than graphics card.

      Yes, BTW, Quake was one of a first 3d game to use a special map design system that preprocessed and pre-rendered some elements of the 3D environment! Thanks for watching!

      ​@@themax4677Yes & Doom isn't even 3d as we know, but uses rather impressive fakery indeed, just to simulate a 3D environment. However, everything functions on a two-dimensional plane 😊😊

      Originally I was thinking the same thing, so I did a bit of research before putting my foot in my mouth. Voodoo 3 cards did provide a 2D accelerator, which mainly provided an additional frame buffer to blit pixels to before it gets flipped to the memory referenced by the monitor. Also, the frame buffer being on PCI meant that this frame buffer could be written to quickly providing additional speed improvements.
      Btw, that computer is an absolute beaut. They just don't make them like that anymore.

    Doom OG doesn't use any 3D acceleration. However, by 1999, there were plenty of source ports that did. It would be interesting to try downloading those (they're still archived!) And running them. I know for a fact there were many that worked well because I played them all in 99 on my Voodoo 2 back in the day. Good times 👍
