I got a copy of <strong>Unreal</strong>. For some reason
the box and manual are dutch but who cares? The graphics
look very cool even in Software rendering (no OpenGL,
yet). At 640 x 480 I get about 12fps which is ok in
singleplayer. Iīm eagerly waiting for the OpenGL patch
:) Here is a screenshot in software rendering 640x480.

The Q2 <strong>3.15 patch</strong> is out (with 3.16
coming soon). Unfortunately IDgamma is broken with 3.15.
You need the new IDgamma 1.2c and the q2glfix to get the
voodoo look back. See the Riva section for details.<br>
I found a very nice autoexec.cfg for Riva owners that
boosts my fps from 22,4 to 26,4. See it in the Riva

Too bad I live in germany and Unreal is scheduled to be

If Unreal lives up to its promise I will most certainly

<strong>Seeing through water</strong> is a big issue in
the newsgroups these days. I added a tip that helps to
see through water if you dive. Your vision is as clear as
usually. However, you canīt see through the water from
outside (and that was what you wanted, right?). As long
as you are not high enough from the ground (pretty
realistic, huh?).<br>
Another tip Iīve added is a link to legions site where
you can find the <strong>"Stroggs Gone Mad"</strong>
mod. This makes Singleplayer really hard.<br>
When I tried to upload the latest changes to my webhost,
I found that the host is down :-((<br>
In the meantime I discovered something really cool: <strong>IDGamma</strong>
is a tool for setting up Quake 2 (and other ID games) so
that they look great with RIVA 128 based cards. Check it
out in the Riva Section! You will love it!<br>
I added some info about the <a href="deathmat.htm">deathmatch
levels</a> q2dm1-q2dm8 in the tips section with
screenshots and a little secret room.</td>

<td>Thanks to Ralf and Carsten for their FPS. <br>
In the last week I tried to find out how to practice the
hook with eraser bot. The answer is simple: You canīt.
But if you use CRBot you can use the hook in deathmatch.
I never tried CRBot before and I am very happy with it.
CRBot has a much smaller Disk footprint and I think its
also faster (less lag on my slow P166MMX) than Eraser. <br>
Here is a hint for my german friends: Check out the
german bot page at<br>
<a href="http://deuq2bot.home.pages.de/">http://deuq2bot.home.pages.de</a>
its a cool page and Frank (the webmaster) gave me a good

<td>I came back from a business trip on friday and,
geez... new OpenGL drivers for the Viper. Someone in the
newsgroups wrote itīs 10-15% faster than the beta 1. I
downloaded it (2.900KB) and installed it. The ReadMe file
says "OpenGL for Windows 95 added". Thats
it. <br>
I played around with the new drivers and here is my
take: <br>
- the gamma Iīve set with EzTweak is not used with Beta
2. Quake 2 is way too dark. <br>
- couldnīt find a way to set gamma, so far. <br>
- the FPS goes slightly down (approximately 0.3 FPS on my
P166MMX) <br>
- canīt see any diference in visual effects <br>
Sorry folks but Iīm back at Beta 1. This works fine with
everything I do on my PC and Beta 2 seems to be a
downgrade for me. Anyway, if you want to see for your
self get the new drivers <a
