Hey everyone!
So, I'll go straight to the point. I tried searching around for anybody else having this issue but nothing so far. I've been trying to play Tomb Raider II and III on my old Windows 98 rig running a RIVA TNT2 card, but for some reason the game doesn't load textures correctly or something, so it looks mostly black. If I disable the Z buffer option in TR3, then whenever I go in-game the textures look mostly fine, except that some triangles start blinking white or switching textures for a single frame, and that doesn't fix the issues with the main menu looking all black or the loading screens and menu background while in-game looking like just a texture dump. Any help?
I have both a RIVA TNT and a RIVA TNT2 model 64 on an AGP 2X slot, I am running the ForceWare 71.84 driver on Windows 98 SE. Both cards exhibit the same issues. I tried changing the settings, using different resolutions and color depths, tweaking the little stuff I can tweak on the Windows settings from the driver. Nothing helps. The only thing I didn't try was using different driver versions. I'd assume the RIVA TNT, being contemporary to the games, would work correctly.
