Anyone using this in whistler? using 2410 and the ntbuild driver works fine but only with direct 3d. Anyone know of a way to use the windows 2k drivers? When I use them i only get 8 bit color desktop.

Whistler 2410 is Beta, don't expect all of your hardware to work as if it were the gold version. Don't really know what to tell you, wait for the Retail version of Whistler i guess.

Yes you can use the windows 2k drivers

[shadowraven]

Which driver are you using? I tried 1.03 for voodoo 3 and the latest for voodoo 5.

[shadowraven]

what version? I have tried all I can find.

I am using a pci version on a asus cuv4x mainboard.

let's try this..

download latest beta v3 drivers then extract to a directory and DO NOT RUN SETUP.EXE then copy all .dll files in there except 3dfxvs.dll into your windows/system32 directory then load up regedit and in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/microsoft/windowsnt/currentversion/opengl/drivers add a new key called 3dfx and in there make a string call DLL and put the text "3dfxogl.dll" without quotations, then a DWORD with DriverVersion as 1 , a DWORD with Flags

I know and I'm tired of posting it over and over, haha.

It works 100 % here, so I figured posting it in other places would be fine

It works but if only change your resolution and then change it back when you first start windows. If not the computer says it can not change the resolution for the game.

[shadowraven]

Also the registry value was different in windows:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/microsoft/windowsnt/currentversion/opengl/drivers


was this

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/microsoft/windowsnt/currentversion/opengldrivers/

[jdulmage]

I meant to say opengldrivers, I was just doing this off of the top of my head of what I remembered. but yeah, it should be opengldrivers, not opengl/drivers

[shadowraven]

Still, do you have to set reset the resolution each time you boot? What driver version are you using. I d/l 1.04

[jdulmage]

i'm using the latest drivers, never have to reset the resolution. Maybe you did one of the steps wrong or something
