Hexen 2 (Quake 1 engines)
I pulled out my old copy of Hexen 2 the other day, wanting to finally play through some of it.
I was expecting to experience an extremely fluid experience, this is the Quake 1 engine for pete's sake.
Matrox' OpenGL driver has let me down again. The game gets excessively jerky at times, and some weapons shots are quite distorted.
I tried the TurboGL (latest) which had no effect, along with the 6.10 standard GL driver.
Monday I popped in a friend's Geforce 2 GTS, he needed me to test it out for him. The Geforce runs the game great, none of my problems. Felt like I was pulling 300 fps, very nice fluid motion. No blotchy messed up weapon effects either.
Anyone know how to get around this? Matrox?

ABIT BF6, Pentium III Katmai @663MHz, GW VOS32 Cooler, 256MB Crucial 7E SDRAM, Quantum Fireball Plus LM, Matrox G400 DH@160/200, Enlight 7237, 300watt TurboCool PS, and some fun with a Dremel!
