Well Rollage is really a good game.
Driving those wierd cars that can flip upside down at hudge speeds while shooting various rockets and bullets to the other player and braking most of the scene's builidings/plants is quite exciting. Wink

Well here's Rollcage (1) Smiley

Ok this one would be like breaking groundspeed records to regain some positions (see the air friction aura in front huh):
...

One sample of total destruction... poor little (khmm big) building
...

Some guided rockets flying over the cars (special type of rockers aiming the current 1#)
...

Bit of drivin' downtown... on the roof of the tunnel Grin
...

From snow... (on the left automatic aiming for environment destruction guided rockets... sweet)
...

...to lava
...

For more pics (and actual res.) I made a directory here:
http://193.77.238.223/3Dfx/rollcage/

All this run on: PII 400, 256MB PC133, Voodoo5 5500 AGP @1024x768 16bpp and 4x FSAA

hmm okay looks sweet indeed, reminds me of StarWars Episode 1 Racer Smiley, but in Racer the speeds are much greater hehe. my max speed in the Neva Kee pod with afterburner was like 1287 MPH Lips Sealed talk about speed out of contol haha I hit a wall and man it was like wiieee @ 1287 mph and BOOM aarggh dead @ 0mph LOL hahaha Grin Grin Grin

but yeah Rollcage seems to give great gameplay, gotta find the game now hehe, my PII 350 with V5 5500 AGP Rev.A 2300 and AWE64 Gold! could use a game like that Wink

Thanx again St4r4m4m4  8)

No problem at all Wink

I did spend a lot of time on these Rollcage games (but I can't seem to find my Rollcage2)
And I really enjoyed a lot, also Rollcage 2 has some interesting game modes more, like "Scrambe" very technically oriented, driving on narrow very bumpy strips of floating land at high speeds to achive an appropriate timing without falling down.

Gotta love the colours our trusty 3dfx cards could pump out especially considerring how far ahead they were in their time.

3dfx + Glide could turn the slowest computer into a gaming arcade machine!

gotta agree on the colours that 3dfx Glide API gives, simply outperforms 32Bit OpenGL and 32Bit Direct3D allrighty  Kiss Kiss that's pure 3dfx sweetness, and that still makes me use my 3dfx Voodoo5 5500 PCI 64MB Rev.A1 2900 infront of my Sapphire ATi X1900 XTX in old games, 3dfx Glide just looks way better on a real 3dfx can than emulated on an Ati, nVidia or other vendored card, therefore I totally agree there mate, you have a great 3dfx spirit!!! 8)

Rollcage is interestingly a very well optimised game. It runs just as well in Glide as in DirectX mode. It is the game in which my friend actually showed me "the power of Riva TNT". It 'was '97 or '98 & Riva just wasn't ready. But I remember one thing.
To show me the power of the card he ran Rollcage in some crazy resolution (1024x768 or 1280x1024), started some background programs plus Winamp (MP3 music instead of CD audio from rollcage). And Rollcage ran perfectly. At that moment I felt for the first time the limitation of resolution offered by Voodoo 1...

yesterday I tried some older games on my 5500.

Probably already in the list, but rogue squadron works flawlessly on glide.
Was playing @ 1280x1024x32, gonna try with AA tonight and get some screenies.

I also tried hot pursuit 2, seems that it has glide support, is that correct??
If not, it still runs fine @ 1024x768 with 2xAA, but it sure does look nice. Smiley

@ obi-wan You mean the HCC dagen?? I'm going as well this year, hope to find nice stuff and all, ya never know. Smiley
