i recently formatted my machine with the v5 in it and i was appauled at the quality of drivers for xp. i hated the 3dhq tools, the lack of updated glide files, and the lack of custom settings in 3dfx tools.
so, i took the best parts from different driver sets and made my own. i made both quality and performance versions (the performance being about 20% faster, but a little worse iq and a little worse compatibility) and i need people to help me test them out. so far this seems like the best set available and should hold us over until amigamerlin's 3.0 drivers come out.
performance:
Voodoo Series DirectX(r) Driver Version: 5.1.0.2602 (from 3dhq)
Glide(tm) 2.X Driver: 2.61.0.2604 (from KoolSmoky)
Glide 3.X Driver: 3.10.0.2610 (from KoolSmoky)
OpenGL(r) Driver Version: 1.0.0.761 ICD (from x3dfx)
3dfx Tools Settings: 1.08.04 (from x-3dfx Community Drivers)
quality:
Voodoo Series DirectX(r) Driver Version: 5.1.0.2602 (from 3dhq)
Glide(tm) 2.X Driver: 2.61.00.0658 (from Colourless)
Glide 3.X Driver: 3.10.00.0658 (from Colourless)
OpenGL(r) Driver Version: 1.0.0.761 ICD (from x3dfx)
3dfx Tools Settings: 1.08.04 (from x-3dfx Community Drivers)
so please help me test them. run some opengl, glide, and direct3d games. let me know the performance compared to your old drivers, and let me know any compatibility issues.
thanks alot in advance, this will help all of us.
