Anyone having luck with HL & 5.30 Drivers?

[Goudie]

HalfLife is playable but not without flaws. It seems when I run in OGL 800X600 or any resolution for that matter, the Flash light doesn't work and I get little white dots appearing inbetween textures. Anyone experiencing the same stuff? Anyone have a fix?

P2 350, 128 MB RAM, ASUS P2B, G200 8MB w 5.30 drivers and 3.51 Bios, Latest HL update, DX6.1, Desktop 1024X768 32bpp and occasionally at 16bpp, just to see the perspective from a 3DFX owners world

1) Get a PIII-450 for $180.

2) Install.

3) Use the TurboGL.

Seriously, the ICD seems to have issues, while the TurboGL runs HL flawlessly. If you can, wait for the TurboGL driver to be adapted to the PII.

The only problem with that idea is that the TurboGL is for the G400 (which btw, works great in standard OGL on my p2), but not the G200

The G200 seems to have some problems with 5.30. For now, the best answer is to go back to 5.25 until the next driver update...

Thanks for the help guys, though a PIII sure sounds good. I guess it's back to 5.25 for this guy. Nice to know there a people out there willing to help Kruzin, hats off to you guy, your everywhere and helping everyone
Cheers

I've not bothered trying the full ICD with HL yet. On Quake, it does the full rainbow happiness with the textures, so I didn't even bother with testing it on other games. Besides, that damm monitor restriction with OpenGL doesn't exist with the TurboGL.

I missed the G200 part in the .sig. I feel sorry for you. Go get a V2 to mate to that G200, or get a new CPU and a G400 MAX.

HL's another "I prefer 3dfx" game. The cheapest solution to your problem is to get a 3dfx board to support it. V2's are cheap now.
