I have just purchased a vfx1 headgear and installed the drivers and setup my mother board for palette snooping, if enabled or disabled i still get incorrect colors even in dos mode. I have a diamond stealth 64 vision 864 chipset

Change your resolution.
This will happen if its too high. You will have to play around with it. It can and may change from application to application.

It may be your refresh rate. Also confirm that you have palette snooping enabled in your Bios.

If you've tried several video cards then more then likely it's the HMD setup. Have you tried the -t +t options on the VFX1.com. This toggles palette snooping off and on. Try it out.
Type in dos VFX1 -t or +t and see if you get any difference. Try -h to see all the options.

Using the +t -t function toggles stereo and non-stereo mode....

Whenever I run any games with the VFX1 I use the following commands...

vfx1 +t
vfx1 +s
vfx1 +c

I initially had the same colour problems as you described, but invoking these commands has rectified the problem..

Let me know how this goes..

I am new to this message board. but I just wanted to say that I have been working on a project with the vfx1. my project involves using NO ISA board. I have been working on a Project that will allow users to fully immerse themselves into any shoot em up games with this body suit connected with the vfx1. and all body movements will be derived into your games. as far as tracking is concerned I have developed a new way to track movements using various Techniques. I am happy to say that the ISA card will no longer be needed instead it will be using an interface box I have created for this project. You have to see this shit I am working on it is really awesome! I will not give out any technical information because it is my own creation and none of my work is protected as of yet and also I should be finished in a couple of months so those really interested I will be selling. Imagine yourself running in your own livingroom and jumping and being able to interact that into whatever game you are playing. using a real full size machinegun in your hands and being able to point and shoot your enemy. you duck for real your ducking in the game for real you run for real your running in the game for real you jump for real your Jumping in your game for real, you get the picture....any questions email me at jtridexter@hotmail.com

You would be running in one place. Think about the realism that you can put in your games. It really feels like your running. and when you jump up in the air while shooting at people would feel incredibly realistic.
