A modified Quake engine - Darkplaces.

Shame it REQUIRES HW TnL as standard...

Interesting though!

P.S. - Welcome to Falconfly forum @レイレイ

There's no HW T&L implemented in Darkplaces

I'm surprised it even looks like this at all considering Banshee only has one TMU. It may run better if I stick a Voodoo2 in there.

Hmm...the only reason for the LOW framerate would be HW TnL as a requirement. :-/

The only reason I said this is that the homepage lists a Geforce 2 as the minimum spec. :P

Whatever! ::)

It's only listed as minimum spec for the use of cubemapping and bumpmapping, and the stencil buffer

I know the Darkplaces engine pretty much in and out, and it does not use Hardware Transform & Lighting.

Could be because of multitexture - or lack thereof on the Banshee... :-/
