Tested with all drivers, and I didn't encounter any problems, except for one. When I select dgVoodoo, the game doesn't retain 16:9 aspect ratio, the image is stretched. Also, 16:9 resolutions aren't visible in the graphics menu.

The last file you've sent me works.

Yup, no error message ever appeared to me.

The crash is permanent. I tried to run the game 4 times in a row, and it appeared every time.

Now, more testing results: I've tested the alpha files you sent me, and Alpha 4 is the last one that works correctly in 3dfx mode. Alphas 5-10 crash before the loading screen appears.

You've tested in voodoo2 mode? For example, fonts in the main menu are sharp? (in d3d mode fonts in the main menu are blurred). Yes. Menus are sharp and the 3dfx logo appears before the game starts. So, another revisions: http://veg.by/files/nfs3/nfs3-patch-alpha-2015-05-10.7z http://veg.by/files/n...

Both work

It means that there is some error in the patched nfs3.exe. Can you tell how it crashes? Have you seen any error messages with debug information, etc.? What is your OS? The game crashes when it's about to finish loading a race, but instead starting the race, it returns to desktop without any message...

OK, I did the tests. Sorry it took me so long, I had some important things to do in real life

The original game works fine with each of the three files (voodoo2_std, voodoo2_xtd and voodoo2 from your patch). The patched game however crashes when I try to run it in 3dfx mode.

No, the original game works fine in both D3D and V2 modes.

I also have a laptop with i7 + Optimus. When I switch the game to Voodoo2 mode, it crashes when loading the race, however in D3D mode it works fine. I haven't encountered any issues yet.

This is awesome! You should upload the file to PCGamingWiki
