Does the engine demo actually work? You do have a CV64/3D, right? So
15 Bit workbench is ok, but the 800x600 might be a bit too big since
the memory is so low...=20

try setting MESA/VFAST to 1. The ViRGE is really dog slow, it might
come out that a PPC software-drawer is faster than that. This is
definately true for Heretic II. On a ViRGE, nothin will get several
times faster, only a bit faster...=20
