I ordered Voodoo 2 MAC in good price with SLI and passthrough cable, will it works out of the box or I have to flash it to work in SLI outside MAC?

Thanks for all advices, unfortunately I couldn't even check any of these today. 🤣 I will try tomorrow, for me. 😀
Glide games on Voodoo 1 and 5 in the same system
Posted on 2023-05-17, 08:27
Is there somewhere a list of games, eventually patches for these to make them work correctly on V5? I noticed, as for now, two games work too fast on V5 and work perfectly well on V1. Other thing, some glide games detect only V1 despite putting V5 drivers in game's folder. Examples: Croc 2 - I know …

Forcing 32bpp makes games to dectect smaller resolution, Rayman 2 in 800x600 max and honestly I'm not sure that works, I think will be better to stay at default 16bpp in 1024x768, this card is more like collectors item to use from time to time, not like daily use. GF4 or Radeon 9600 are more like …

But there is a patch that works with nglide, I asked at raymanpc.com and the person who made patch will hopefully help me. 😉 Also Rayman 2 supports only real glide or DirectX and choosing DX is really a poor choice. 😁

Unfortunately replacing that dll and changing from 16 to 32 kicks back to 640x480 in software rendering.

Well, I copied whole package from GoG (I bought that one), removed all glide emu files and welp, kicks back to 16bit color palette so I guess I'm out of luck for this one. 😁

Thanks a lot @TrashPanda, finally V5 on maximum usage. 😁 However, I saw Rayman 2 GOG version forces 32bit color and I cannot do this on real machine. Am I doing something wrong or it's possible only via emulation?

Ok but what file?
Voodoo 5 and glide issues
Posted on 2023-05-10, 10:45
I finally got it, I managed to run some games in glide at 1024x768 in 32bit color mode but Quake 2 keeps kicking me to software renderer unless I'll choose lower resolutions. Any way to run Q2 in glide at this resolution?

For me personally, call it weird, whatever ;) , I'm collector and honestly, having V1, V2 SLI and V3 builds I was already set, this card will be more like collector's item, that obviously works, and 'maybe' will fill that 'hole' for certain titles that, for example, will work better than with SLI or …

Thanks for the links but I don't understand Deutch anymore. 🤣 Also, I plan to put V5 into P3 800MHz slocket1 build to replace GF4 4200 Ti. 😀

Ok so I ordered fully working one with Hyundai VRAM, vanilla, price kills me but whatever, last expensive thing was 500PLN, ~$120,12, for Voodoo 2 for SLI to my Athlon XP 2000+ build. Creative 100MHz + Innovision 110MHz. For this I'll pay at delivery ~$607,56 with shipping costs, please don't judge …

I have P3 900MHz and Athlon 2000+ machines with Voodoo 2 12MB SLI, 4 cards, 3 Creative, one no name with 110MHz VRAM chips. Next to that 1GHz P3 with Voodoo 3 3500 and 600MHz AMD K6-2 with V3 3000 plus spare V3 2000. :) The thing is I always wanted that overpriced V4 but looking on the internet I …

So for glide stock 64MB no matter memory manufacturer I guess. The thing is I want it just for glide because I can't put Voodoo 3, any, in Tualatin motherboard, or I'm mistaken, and I am aware that build would be overkill for V3 2k or 3k I own. :D Also like Pentium 3-s 1.4GHz, this is THE hardware I …

This took me a lot of thinking but I made decision. I want to replace GeForce 4 with Voodoo 5 5500, I don't care about rare 6000 or what not. But the thing is when I read about it people say to ignore Voodoo 4 because V5 with disabled one graphic chip is V4 in V5, and I need it just for GLIDE and …
Re: Is my Voodoo dead or machine is too fast?
Posted on 2023-04-28, 17:05
Well, but messing around I found the issue and glide games work, obviously only 640x480 resolution. With official refference drivers it doesn't work but iceman version does. The culprit was dirty pins on PCI connector. :D So I guess it'll be better to leave it as spare one? I heard, and I'm not sure …
Is my Voodoo dead or machine is too fast?
Posted on 2023-04-28, 16:44
I wanted some glide in my slocket1 P3 800MHz, it worked once after applying iceman drivers, now I'm stuck at grey screen (Quake2) or black screen. Did my card die or I'm doing something wrong? Honestly it's not a dealbreaker as I have other, more correct machines for Voodoo 1s, but I found this one …
