I can't run Oni Demo on my iMac Rev.A with V2 GameWizard 160MB RAM. I tried to run it under Mesa3dfx, but i doesn't work. After the Movie I see a gray screen with my mouse and there is sound, but I can't see anything else. Then I tried to run Oni under the regular MC drivers with GlideLib 3.x, 3dfx Opengl renderer and Opengl extensions like "the Dude" posted in another topic...

Can anyone help?

Be more specific about the exact files you have enabled and or disabled. Have you deleted all traces of Mesa? With the 3dfx drivers enabled, are any other OpenGL games running propery with the Game Wizard? Which version of OpenGL? Oni runs fine here.

I solved the problem, thanks. and now oni works fine....except that i can see the different "mipmapping-degrees" (i'm not english or american, so please be patient with me ). and graphics are in general not good. the bodies, how they disappear in the walls...really bad...like in TombRaider...but the moves are great, really, and the sound is too.

Also you'll need a voodoo.var file to up the gamma so that the game isn't too dark. I have mine set at 3.0 I believe. You can use Pimpincerator for this.

FYI: You need those gamewizad extensions in no matter WHAT game you're playing. Those are the ONLY extensions that know how to call up the card.... you CAN, however, use the 3dfx library files. But you cannot use regular voodoo2 drivers.
