A Question i've had about GTA ever since ive had it.

Aite i have a Voodoo 16meg Banshee and i still cant use the 3dFX mode in the original GTA... any suggestions on how to get it to work?

Cheers

voodoo banshee was a really weird card, since it was not really a 3dfx manufatured product.. the problem is on the driver side i would guess. From what i remember (yes, it has been A LOOONG time since the banshee came out) there was always issues with glide games not working well on the banshee. I really do not remember a fix or anything, since i had never bought a banshee, but i suggest to try and search on some hardware websites, like www.hardocp.com and www.ve3d.com or try google as well...
maybe use a search phrase like:

voodoo banshee glide

that should bring up some info, i hope..good luck mate

hmm...i had a creative banshee running under win95

gta ran fine afaik...only thing i can think of is checking for the latest drivers

...quite a robust little card imo...it's still running in my server computer at home & no problems running at like 60�C 24/7

dunno how different the voodoo one is...i take it the chip is the same tho

that is true, but you might still be able to find _OLD_ website that might still have a local copy
