Hey
I was wondering about question mentioned in title. And now I'm talking specifically about Voodoo 3 and Win98SE. And game which speed I want to measure is Shogo MAD. Game should have build-in frame counter but I have never got that work. And it doesn't work event with TNT2 card. Any ideas? I'm mainly looking for alternative software.

Current Projects:
1: Gigabyte GA-6VX7B-4X - Intel Pentium III 1000EB - 256 mb PC-133 SDRAM - 3Dfx Voodoo 3 3000 - Creative Sound Blaster Audigy
2: M-tech R418W2 - Intel DX4-100 - 8 mb RAM - Cirrus Logic CL-GD5446BV - Creative Sound Blaster Vibra 16S

That won't work for Shogo MAD. It's a DirectX 6 game and only has Direct3D6 renderer, not Glide. Unlike OpenGL, 3Dfx DirectX implementation does not go through Glide APIs.

Fraps works even on S3 Virge.

I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.

Actually Fraps did work when I used DirectX renderer.
