@@DanielHaduniuk a good idea :)

@@RealHero101111 the graphics, music and level design are very nice for a mid-2000 game.

@@philt6440 The AI cars where very fast in this game but just made it more challenging. I played it so much back in 1998-1999.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 there is a slight issue with the game in that it's very CPU intensive and when you're in a race with even just one opponent car you will experience stutter when going round a high speed corner. This can take upto 1 second of lap time off your actual laptime from time attack mode where the stutter isn't there as much. F1 racing simulation doesn't suffer from this as much so my time attack laps can be replicated in a race scenario. I've tried to eliminate the stutter in Monaco 2 by playing it on hardware from its time but it's still there. I did find turning off the shadow cache on Nvidia helps somewhat but still not enough to be competitive with the front 3 cars.

oh and I've noticed my modern quad core makes the AI cars run slightly faster (even when set to 1 processor only ) than my pentium 4 single core. There is around half a second difference when their tyres have warmed up over 5 or 6 laps. Still not sure how to address that one. It's particularly funny on Monaco where the AI cars sometimes take the hairpin too fast and end up getting stuck there in a 21 car pile up. 😂 I cannot replicate that on the pentium 4 so it definitely is a modern hardware issue.

@@philt6440 with the Quad-Core or even Pentium 4, if you want to make them slower, from the BIOS you can select the lowest multiplier and the frequency will go down too. With a lower multiplier and frequency it will run slower and be more compatible with old games.

@@matusmikoviny a nice game for the year 2000 :)

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 it uses a more advanced and better optimised version of the Shogo and Blood 2 engine. It's a nice shooter for that period and it runs great of a Voodoo 3.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay yes it looks very good for that period. It also runs well on a Voodoo 3 in 1024x768.

@@SACUNSACA I don’t know exactly but it could be, the TNT2 runs well in Direct3D. I will have to test it :)

@@Hanejejrjxn yes Kiss Psycho Circus uses version 1.5 of the LithTech engine, a more advanced and better optimized version than 1.0 used for Shogo and Blood 2. But they still look very similar.

@@DanielHaduniuk Well even though the game is from January 2002 it still works great on the old Voodoo 3 realeased in early-1999.

@@DanielHaduniuk I will try Rollcage 2 for sure in the next months.

@@DanielHaduniuk I will have to try it out with the Voodoo 3, but the chances that SA will work are minimal I guess.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay it was an interesting game for the year 1997.

@@DanielHaduniuk I tried it a long time ago and if I remember correctly it run without issues with the Voodoo 3 but with a low 15-25 FPS. I will have to try it again :)

@@DanielHaduniuk 256 SDR, I wrote the system details the description.

​@@3dfxvoodoocards6 you could run SA well. SA need 256 mb RAM and 32mb videocard. It should executable in save mod with 16bit pallette Look at this movie how streaming works in gta SA, th-cam.com/video/2pZEK40AmRg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Em7UTaArCuuYQK5u Maybe you can tweak some?

@@infinity2z3r07 the system requirements aren’t very high for that year but the graphics are superb.

@@WETwe-h8y you can see the FPS in the lower-left side of the screen.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 but it would be nice to see how the performance looks

@@DanielHaduniuk Yeah, it was a really nice games of the late 90s.

@@ChannelTware P3 Tualatin and a Voodoo 3, 4 or 5 is an excellent configuration for retro gaming PC :)

In this video I was playing with just one hand. With the other I was holding the smartphone. If you look at the edge of the monitor you can see it’s moving because I was holding the smartphone with my hand :). I started making videos on this channel just for myself, to see how certain games run o a Voodoo card :), that’s why the video quality is so low because it wasn’t important for me at that time.

Glide games most of the time have extra details / graphics features in Glide compared to Direct3D. This was just the Demo version, I couldn’t find the full version anywhere. I had the full version back in 1999, but now I cannot find it.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 It's on myabandonware. Then google for the 3DFX NO CD crack for it. It's definitely out there.

@@janosgerzon7647 I played GP3 a lot back then on a Celeron 400 mhz and Voodoo 3 2000. I will definitely upload a video with it in the next weeks or months.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay the Banshee is more than 2 to 2.5x faster than the Voodoo 1 and it also has a better image quality thanks to the 22 bit filter and no 2d-3d cable.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay its very similar to Machwarrior 3. It has very advanced graphics for that time and is a realy nice game.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I like how open and empty the map is. I'll definitely give that a try!

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay it’s a really nice game, you won’t regret playing it :)

Yup..they made the best F1 games. Silky smooth 60fps like here was also achieved first in 1997 with their first F1 simulation offering. Geoff Crammonds GP3 still couldn't get above 30fps in 2000! Ubisoft were way ahead of their time!

@@philt6440 yeah Ubisoft made some really good games back then.

@@RootiferasRetroGameplay yeah it runs really nice on the Voodoo 3 3000 in 1024x768. At the start the Fps was lower because there were 22 cars on the screen but after a few seconds it run very smooth.

@@brickmoss8kb yes the graphics are superb for a game from 2000 and it runs really well in 1024x768 with the Voodoo 3.

@@efpcvintageplanet3406 yes and it has excellent graphics for that year. Runs very well on the Voodoo 3 in 1024x768.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 i've seen great FPS

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 welllll,big framedrops i see at the beginning of the race,maybe a cpu limit i d ont know.

@@athos5359 At the beginning of the race, with 22 cars in the image all at once the FPS was lower but I guess that’s more because of the CPU. Right after I overtook some cars and they disappeared behind, the FPS increased dramatically.

@@retrohardwaregarage171 I agree, for the year 2000 it was an excellent game with beautiful graphics.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 I'm a big fan of F1 games but I miss this one...I need to find a copy

@@retrohardwaregarage171 F1 Racing Championship is one of the best F1 racing games of that period, it’s more a simulator than an arcade game. Curiously it never was very well known.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 Did you know Ubisoft developed an F1 Racing Championship 2 but due to licensing laws they couldn't have official team names and driver names? It was later released as Racing Simulation 3. It was a big flop due to Geoff Crammond games now being at the forefront. I still like it though. It's basically F1 Racing Championship game with some fine tuning.

@@philt6440 Very interesting, I didn’t know that. I will check it out. I like F1 racing games a lot, from 1994 to 2000 I was a F1 fanatic :). Even now I constantly look at the races from those years and the ones before when Senna Prost Mansell fought each other.

@@philt6440 it’s challenging but also a lot of fun to drive.

His car was pretty crap compared to the Williams Renault for '96, '97 season and he still took Hill and Villeneuve the distance. But yes he was rightly disqualified in 1997.

@@philt6440 in 94 and 95 he won the championship even though the Williams cars were clearly superior to his Benetton. And in 98 and 99 the McLaren Mercedes was too far superior to his Ferrari. Senna and Prost for most of their careers drove the best cars on the field, Schumacher almost always drove the second of third card on the grid and still won the championship in 94 and 95 and was close to winning it in 97 and 98. In 99 he broke his legs and couldn’t compete.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 don't get me wrong I still regard him as the best driver of that era. Only really appreciated his achievements after he retired though and watched the races back. I was a big Hill fan at the time. Saw both Hill and Schumi up close as their teams did testing in their garages at Spa in '96. Friday you could walk in the pits if it wasn't too busy. Great times! Different times! And better times 👍

@@philt6440 the best F1 years in my opinion were from 85 to 2000. Schumacher was clearly superior to Hill. Schumacher in an inferior car won the championship in 94 and 95 against Hill who drove the fastest car on the grid, the Williams-Renault.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 Schumacher should never have won in '94 though. That move deserved a points reset as much as the move in '97 on Jacques.

Yup. It's the third F1 title by ubisoft. They worked with Williams Renault team to simulate a real world experience as much as possible into the game.

@@philt6440 it’s one of the best F1 games from that period. I played it a lot back then.

@@3dfxvoodoocards6 Monaco Grand Prix Racing Simulation 2 and Grand Prix Legends are up there with it as the best ever made too.
