But the game is vram heavy so it might not be the most playable. If I recall right the game's CPU requerments is a p4@ 2.4 or 2.8ghz. Tho I was able to play it on my old system p3 with a gt6600. If I can get my hands on a 4500 or 5500 ill give it a go too. http://www.falconfly.de/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1388705920 3dfx Archive/Games http://www.falconfly.de/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1388705920 <b><a href="http://www.falconfly.de/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1388705920/2#2">mirage111 wrote</a> on 03.01.14 at 13:09:27:</b><br /><div>Ok, so what is the max 3D resolution for Voodoo3 using Glide? I thought it was 800x600 because some games, like Quake II, crashes when I try higher resolution or even doesn't let me choose it.<br /> </div><br /><br />1600x1200 it's the max resolution for V3 in 3D. V3 3500 can handle UT99 in that resolution, it will be quite smooth in small maps with 1-2 bots. On larger maps and with 4-5 bots or more the frames will drop bad in fights (smoke effects will "kill" the framerate, V3 inherited that from V2, V2 also had problems with transparency).<br /><br /> http://www.falconfly.de/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1387188839 3dfx Archive/Games http://www.falconfly.de/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1387188839 I sent you a PM
