is the voodoo 3 supported for this game ???

no-one shouts louder than someone who is being ignored, or in the case of techies, to be heard over the noise of their PC's ;-)

i dont know but i cant seem to find a patche or driver that would help me support the voodoo????????

i had a 16 meg voodoo 3 that it wouldnt play on, kept saying gta requires 12 megs video mem, it had 16, go figure.

how do you shoot the devil in the back? what happens if you miss? -verbal

If it's not the video card than updating GTA3 to 1.1 might help.

I strongly recommend for that game atleast a Geforce3, even GF4 MX series is not really enough unless you enjoy choppy game play and possibly freezing caused from the card overheating I seriously don't see that game running with that card, it'd be like trying it with intergrated AGP graphics on my mobo (no offense).

I had a GF2 ti when that game first came out and it was laughable at how slow things went. I seriously HAD to get a GF4 ti4200 to par up with what the game demanded from a GPU.

Get a GF3 ti or GF4 ti for x-mas, around $100 and it will seriously improve your overall gaming experience!

true, on my AthlonXP 1900+ with GF2 Ultra i found that i couldn't run it in 1024x768, cause the fps was around 5!


with a new 128Mb GF4 Ti 4200 with Quicux FSAA the game runs fine with the above res......so yeah i think the Voodoo 3 is far too slow for GTA3
