graphics look stunning Paul for a Voodoo3 heh, amazing to see the Voodoo3's even running games of like 7 years later , thanks toi SFFT hehe, pretty we got him as a driver dude, I wonder what AmigaMerlin3.2 is gonna be like, I hope Amiga and SFFT will combine forces w00t!

But sure is damn impressive to see it run! :o :o :o ;D

Paul,
I added the info two postings down in that thread ;D
Normally I use a V4 AGP, because that card runs fine on my main rig, so I dont have to change PCs.
I experienced that sometimes the V4 AGP is faster than the V5-5500 PCI, i.e. in Codename Panzers: Phase 2.
