Ok, this is really starting to piss me off. I've installed Quake][ and 3DNow! patches on every one of my friends computers. I've installed it on my own system at least 25 times. I've never had a problem. Tonight I decided to install Quake][ again since I haven't played it in awhile. I installed the game, the 3.20 patch, the 3DNow! 3.20 patch, and the 1.46 MiniGL patch. I've tried to install the patches in every order possible. I cannot get the any of the 3DNow! options from the Video menu. All it keeps offering is Software, OpenGL, 3Dfx, and PowerVR options. Where the hell are the 3DNow! options? The only thing I've done differently is that I haven't reinstalled The Reckoning, Ground Zero, and Zaero which I usually go ahead and install before I play. I can't imagine having to do that to get 3DNow! to work. Has anyone else encountered this? Joe Weldinger triryche@erinet.com

I tried that and going back to the left stopped at Software. I removed and reinstalled thing and it's working now? But you're right, it is back the other way.

The 3DNow! patch isn't required. It just makes it so that my K6-2 out performs a faster PII when playing Quake][. Whew, lots of twos in there.
