TurboGl... anyone knows what are they for?

[YankeeMax]

Hi again...

Are there any games that TurboGl suports?
or they are for nothing?
Please anyone help me here, Quake2, Unreal, Unreal Tornement, don´t work with them, but when you check if they are suported by TurboGl, it says yes...
What should i do?!!!

MOBO SYS:
VIA PA-2013 1 mb cache
AMD K6-3 450
MAX G400 PD5.50(beta) works very good
IBM ATA66 7200 rpm
Cd-ROM ATA33 7200 rpm Asus
Aztech 368 DSP

Switch back to 5.30 if you want to use TurboGL on your K6/via mobo. It's well known that most SS7 systems will not run TurboGL with drivers over 5.30...

[YankeeMax]

Say Krusin?!!!

PD 5.50 already have TGl? Is that it?
anyway thank´s...

[Kruzin]

No.
5.50's ICD is faster than the older ones, but it is not TurboGL. It's just that there is a bug with SS7 boards and TurboGL with newer drivers. I still use TurboGL with 5.50, but I am on an Intel chipset, so it works...

Except the 5.50 drivers ICD has a bug in it that will give you a page fault error when exiting any OpenGL game that will require a reboot before doing anything else 3D. If you want to use the TGL on the K6-2/3 platforms then you will have to stay with the 5.30 drivers. The 5.41 drivers are better than the 5.30 overall but no TGL for the K6-2/3 platform. And the beta 5.50 drivers are just that, beta drivers.

I don't play any of the games that the TGL supports, most that I do play are DX anyway. I've got a VIA MVP3 board/K6-3 and a G400 MAX/RR-G. What would be the fastest and most stable drivers for a setup like mine? Gracias, amigos.

[Joel]

Just have a look at my system specs. I find this setup to be very stable.

I get an illegal operation error when exiting openGL games using the beta 5.5
driver under win95. Also, win95 locks up
on shut down. Other than that, The
Beta 5.5 has potential. Using the exact same
video settings, my fps in quake 2 were 86
for the 5.41 driver and 101 for the 5.5
driver.

Honest, Joel, I don't hate AMD!

[YankeeMax]

AMD is the BEST !!!

Hi !!! hehehehe thank´s all

Say Rob_b... what resolution do you use for having those scores 86 and 101? (FPS)

I have Win98SE installed and in a resolution of 1024x728 32Bit Z32 40 fps...
damm xite !!!

[Gurm]

Hey Rob, upgrade to Win98 and your problems will automagically disappear!

Hehe.
