The patterns are defined for 4x4 pixel squares by four bit register, meaning mahrox options. These are the times when vsync on slow display makes me a sad panda. It is hard for me to imagine how Matrox would not fix this old weakness and instead made it worse.
This is the oldest Matrox chip you can play Unreal with and it shows.
This Hewlett-Packard card will be wgp guide in the amazing world of stipple alpha blending. I am saving screenshots at this position to compare texturing of the fence.
Good news is that unlike Mystique and Millenium II this card displays textures in all games, only world texturing of Half Life and Thief resists. Also G can properly render fog of distance.

With small 3d polygons faster chip wins, large polygon fills are more limited by memory bandwidth. The big geeky question is what is the 3d engine exactly. In most cases games on G looks better than on Mystique, but there are situations when that horrible blending ruins it all. It is nga-g100 evolution of Fast Texture Architecture, but what else could change?
Following chips were about making G more cost mga-g1000. Despite being the slow one among new architectures it was very different from previous MGA chips because Matrox became for first time 3d image quality leader.

Gaming experience Good news is that unlike Mystique and Millenium II this card displays textures in all games, only world texturing of Half Life and Thief resists. The whole point of Productiva was to be good cheap office card and therefore 3d acceleration is even less desirable than with Millennium.
First I should say this is again not exactly a gamers card.
Since two of them are fully opaque and fully transparent, there is only 14 patterns to cover intermediate steps from half to fully transparent. The shocker came next year when G with all the traditional advantages of Matrox showed framerates on par with hyped TNT2 and Voodoo3.
I found out one big thing, G supports multitexturing. Last totally failing titles are Populous: Very simple board of mtarox Matrox product.
Those checkboards are even more abusive and more frequent too. In the office I could very well be happy with such a card. Why didn't they advertise this? Other games tested do not support single pass multitexturing, which means there are still more performance enhancements in G compared apg Mystique.
The last big question is then the blending and G will attack your eyes with worst implementation ever. Devoted fans were waiting for the next big thing which would show GeForces and Radeons what Matrox can do, but waiting took too long. Watching this puppy drawing mega texels per second back in the days when I believed it runs at 41 MHz filled my head with associations with Parhelia's quad texturing.
This raised my expectations regarding gaming speed, but surprisingly it did not exceed tested 4 Mga-g1100 G unless memory capacity is of concern. But the core was not very well balanced for games. Matrox still could not be bothered with Mba-g100 driver.

Alright, forget what Matrox said about powerful 3d accelerator and welcome to the domain of corporate computers. The "winner" is clear already. Playing with G I can see why, it looks like inside is just a respin mgs-g100 Mystique's 3d engine even if feature set is closer to G on paper. Well, this is one of the ugliest filters I saw, but it still helps.
G also support 24 bit color 3d rendering.
