Anyone found a fix with this? I did a fresh install, installed wineq2 (not sure about settings here) did the duxa shortcut fix, can't get the character models to show.

Brand new Alienware X14 laptop with Geforce 3060.

I tried to get dgvoodoo to work, and I did eventually get it to display the character model, but then my framerate dropped to like 2 FPS. Maybe I have some settings incorrect in dgvoodoo?

Ok, I figured this out. Get the NVidia control panel program.

Open that up, go to "Manage 3D Settings"

Go to "Program Settings" tab

Click "Add" on the Select a program to customize

Select Everquest (eqgame.exe)

on #2, select "High-performance Nvidia processor"

Apply/save, not sure what's there since I already did it.

This fixed the models, no other changes needed.

Awesome.

Thanks for the update.

I have to do that for modern games too. It's easy to overlook.

No problem Bromin. After I did this change, I had framerate issues until I turned the shaders back on in eqclient.ini

Just an addition if anyone has that issue.

I've been running P99 on Windows 11 together with dgVoodoo2 flawlessly for almost 2 years. Not a single crash.
