Voodoo 2 + Doom 3 = ScreenShots inside

[Avalon]

That's totally awesome

Yes. Very impressive. My 12mb V2 SLI setup has been in the closet for a while now, but I still love it. Glad to see that it can still run the current stuff, albeit no where near as well as a more modern graphics card.

Wow, hilarious. Impressive that it works and runs at >60fps! Obvious that it looks exactly like Quake 2 (although I like the visibility a bit better than default gamma ).

quake2 looks much better IMO, better textures.
It looks like half life to me.

i like the martian landscape....rendered the cliff walls as a flat gray. lol.

It's impressive that a card that out of date can run Doom 3 at such framerates.

I'm honestly amazed that it isn't dropping textures left and right. I tried to play Bleem! (yeah, remember that thing? it's a PSX emulator for Win9x systems), using an 8MB V2 card. It had a decent frame-rate, but didn't have nearly enough texture memory. Bleem! recommends a 16MB or higher card. My 4MB AGP ATI RagePro would play it alright, but would be dog-slow, because it had to resort to AGP texturing. (Plus it was only half the speed of the V2 to being with.)

Coolness!

And to think that I just got rid of my Voodoo 3 3000!

 

[PrayForDeath]

Wow! This is really awsome! Looks like Quake 2.

 

[Pandaren]

The lack of dark, shaddowy areas makes the environment signficantly less scary. It's easy to see the bad guys and pick them off...

 

[GreenMonkey]

HAHAHAHAHA

That's awesome

Quake 2 mod for Doom 3

I still play Q2 on my 9800 pro sometimes, so it doesn't look that weird to me

 

[CraigRT]

that's so sweet how the complete and utter darkness was gone, i hated that i could never see anything in the game.

 

[thegimp03]

man, lol...amazing.

This is so dubious I'd expect it's a fake.

 

[dug777]

why, the folks at s3 and XGI (but especially s3, i have a soft spot 4 them ) can, and have, whisked up drivers that left current games looking rather like that (if they run at all ) on what they dub 'current' or even 'cutting edge' hardware , perhaps the drivers used for the voodoo SLI setup for d3 were knocked up by the s3 code-monkeys in their lunchhours...

EDIT: If a million monkeys banging randomly on a million typewriters would eventually produce the complete works of shakespeare, then given about a week half-a-dozen monkeys could come up with better drivers than s3

 

[OMG1Penguin]

Framerate doesn't look too shabby, does look like quake 2

If its fake, its well done. They have taken the time to remove every feature the V2 didnt have from D3.

Probably easier to actually get it to run on a V2, then it would be to fake.

Does anyone have idea how good a Voodoo 3 3000 would run this game compared to these 2 cards?

If anyone gives suggestions, I will go dig out that V3 3000 I found in a old PC last week and try to actually play Doom3.

 

[Slaimus]

I am currently running a Voodoo3 2000 since my GF4 Ti4200 died, so I decided to try it. Using Amigasport 3.0 and MesaFX 0.6.2.0.1 (which is made for Doom3 compatibility), it kept giving me memory access violations.
Anyone else got it to works?
It looks like Amigasport uses GlideXP, but even using diff versions of GlideXP did not do it.

 

[THUGSROOK]

wow ~ that looks like complete crap

 

[SonicIce]

Excellent work.
