The help file can be read now!
I "have the impression", that overall fps were noticably improved!
Fastest drivers so far, I would say!

GP3 / MB Truck Racing / Midtown Madness2 still have heavy graphic (polygons and textures "go crazy") problems. Unplayable!!!
Sydney 2000 has the same, but minor texture problems (100m swimming).

Come on 3dfx guys, there is still a little bit of homework to be done!

Ja, GP3 and the other mentioned ones work well with the W2K V5 beta driver 1.01.
 
Next games, which don´t "like" the 1.03./1.04. WHQL drivers are:
Madden 2001 (menu is invisible)
Tony Hawk 2

Delta Force Land Warrior (Game runs perfect, but you can´t read anything (maps/mission goals/options etc.) during a mission, because all texts are "invisible". I would say: Unplayable!

I had the same problem with tony hawks2 major graphics problems, after i put the latest 3dfx voodoo5 drivers on and directx8. So i was about to e-mail 3dfx complaining, but i decided to put my previous 3dfx drivers on first, because i really wanted to play tony hawks2. however the graphics were/are still screwed up! so, i was under the impression that it was directx8 and not the 3dfx drivers?
anyone tried the latest 3dfx drivers without directx8 to see if the games are still screwed then??
