Hi,

Anybody know what i'm doing wrong? I have 3dfx voodoo 1 4mb. Under windows 95 with installed 3dfx drivers, when I launch gtafx.exe everything is fine - game was launched in DOS mode and is accelerated. But in pure DOS, screen going to black. I put glide2x.ovl from Windows directory to GTA directory but not help. My 2d card is S3Virge/DX 4MB and Pentium 166MMX

Maybe I need set some environment?

edit1... when I set SST_SCREENREZ = 640 screen going to pink, SST_SCREENREZ = 800 - again black

You do have an additional graphics card installed, right? The Voodoo 1 is only for 3D stuff.

Get an older version of GLIDE2X.OVL, the most compatible one is 2.43.
