Be careful with results in 32-bit color mode. You need to turn off 32-bit to 16-bit texture conversion. If you turn it off, you actually lose FPS, but colors on textures you see are actually true 32-bit. You can see it on your own picture here (under OpenGL settings) http://imgur.com/iuhFGGm I was …

Some Geforce2 cards have DVI output and Mac versions of ATi Rage 128 Pro has DVI, but they both do not have Win3.1 drivers. Rage XL is latest from ATi with Win3.1 support and TNT2 from Nvidia, that was mentioned before, with Dos and Win9x they are both good, Geforce2 is better card overall for DOS …

FYI depending on your motherboard slots and your BIOS, it is technically possible to have both the Nvidia and the Voodoo cards installed. In Win98 you can have "hardware profiles" - I have two of these configured, one for the Voodoo and one for the Nvidia. The Nvidia is an AGP card and the Voodoo …

I bought the cards from two different sellers and I tried them in a 440BX slot 1 board, and Athlon XP boards with VIA 266 and 400 FSB chipsets. The fact that I can read the bios makes me think it's not an AGP issue. I was hoping someone here has a working PC version and can share their bios. I'm …

Via 4.05B is good AGP driver for MVP3 usually and Rage128/Rage128Pro does not support Win 3.1, latest ATi card for Win 3.1 is Rage XL (Rage Pro) cards. I would use Geforce2 MX400, almost best performance card for AMD K6-2 and Win9x if you use older Nvidia drivers, like 7.76. With Rage128 you get 8 …

One screenshot with the paletted texture option enabled in the Rage128 Pro D3D menu and other screenshot it is disabled. Looks good! I've updated the wiki page to reflect your findings. Paletted textures work with many Rage128 drivers, thats good. Latest 4.13.8006 Rage128P Win9x driver also work …

In summary, the Rage 128 Pro does not appear to support paletted textures. It may have some sort of partial support for table fog, but it renders the effect inaccurately, at least when driver version 4.13.7192 is used. If anyone else had a different experience with this card, possibly using older …
