NVIDIA GEFORCE PASCAL graphic card problem
-
Hi everyone! On the new nvidia graphics cards (Nvidia Pascal) with driver version 368.81 are problems with textures. Screenshots are attached. I hope someone has found a solution.

I think that problem might be caused by poor handling of paletted (8-bit / 256-colour) textures on Windows 8 and newer. It seems to result in the game making black parts of textures transparent (normally the game would use magenta for transparency).dgVoodoo will probably fix the issue if you can get it working with Machines - instructions here.

the game uses direct 3d and not 3dfx. as for the issue: it is not windows related because it looks good in windows 10. i suggest reporting it to nvidia as then they might solve it.

My OS is Windows 7 SP1 x64. dgVoodoo has some problems with controls. And by the way I found the cause of this. The new graphics cards apparently uses a different method of rendering. In this case we have a black color completely disappears.

dgVoodoo can wrap Direct3D 1-7 and Direct3D 8.1 to Direct3D 11 (as well as wrapping various versions of 3dfx Glide).

Interesting. The PC I tested Machines on Windows 10 on had a GeForce 900-series GPU - maybe it occurs on that generation onwards? (my Windows 7 PC has a 700-series GPU and doesn't have this issue).

Did dgVoodoo fix the visual issue when you tried it?
Control problems could be caused by certain settings - possibly related to windowed/fullscreen state.Here are the settings I use in dgVoodoo Setup, maybe they will help:

I guess the problem is this: http://www.anandtech.com/show/10536/nvidia-maxwell-tile-rasterization-analysis
Everyone who has a 9** and 10** generation graphics cards and win7sp1 x64 please check out the game without using dgvoodoo and with latest nvidia drivers

if i ever get the card installed i will test it myself. i have a gtx 950 card but i had some trouble getting it working. i think i solved the problem but i got tired of it and as a result i have not installed it since.
