I have to agree with Ultima 300fps easilly but 700 Roll Eyes

the graphics don't look as good as other games I have seen but it might be fun heh.

Looks like a country Western game , RedNeck Rampage was so cool haha there even was good music from Creedance Clearwater Revival on the whole CD, a whole album actually! very good rock band of the 1970's!

There was also Redneck Rampage Rides Again dunno if they put Creedance Clearwater Revival music on that CD I hope so I like that band the lyrics are funny at times and it drives the game as well.

Well if your a fan of spaghetti westerns and Ennio Morricone's classic music of those movies.... the composer(Clint Bajakian)for this game was highly recognized and made one of lucasarts most popular soundtracks.<<<<(what drew me the game). there are map makers still who have made that cartoonish look go away and make some cool looking maps we play when we all hook up.Remember I said "Cartoonish" myself about it in the original post and its graphics engine are way outdated but the joy of playing this game is still there.And what more a better way than running on Glide and on a Voodoo hehe ..Rick

Reply #77 - 01.05.07 at 21:52:47 I'm not a fanboy of westerns it's that RedNeck Rampage was a funny game to do, nothing beats StarWars DarkForces + Jedi Knight series imho Therefore I am a Jedi Master afterall a Jedi Master prefer's a Lightsaber and the Force as their weapons of choice we don't need guns lol

yeah true there only the buildings were 3D the rest was plain 3D hehe Dark ForcesII: Jedi Knight did give the 3D feeling a much better idea heh thanx to the QuakeGL engine Grin

Remember QuakeGL Gary man that was godlike when that came for Quake it gave Quake so much more life in it the same feeling I had for Dark ForcesII: Jedi Knight.

i used win 98 se the latest stock 3dfx drivers and i think i tried the mesa`s aswell

the 3dfx patches only got to the alpha stage

used the arjan 3dfx bat file which clears up the gamma problems , his readme states :

`The batch file will work with voodoografics and with voodoo2 boards.
There still is a bug with the voodoo2 board, you may get an error
wich says that it ran out of texture memory for the current textures.
Hmmm, but it's stil fun to play, just save often and restart the game.
You may try to run it with a voodoo3 board, maybe it will work too!.
I hope you enjoy it. '

think i tried it a while back on a v3 with amigamerlin drivers can`t remember if it crashed or not .

have to try some other drivers

voodoo graphics run well but some slight corruption

a bit of a funny one running out of texture mem on a sli rig ????? for a voodoo 1 game !!!

have to give shadow warrior a go
same engine

Shadow Warrior with 3Dfx patch is just ugly. The textures will have bi/tri-lineair filtering and will look 'blurry'. Since the textures are designed for software rendering they look quite good using the good old pixels. Using the 3Dfx patch will only decrease image quality in my opinion. Especially in games like Doom and Shadow Warrior the models of the enemies look bad and blurred.

3D effects are cool but use them the right way

. In games like Unreal, Tomb Raider II and Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight (as shown a few replies above) the effects are a lot better.
