You are seeing bad drivers in action.  Streaky texturing.

This was a problem for me until I got all the drivers sorted out.
3DFX has some directions for Rush card users.  It is screwy that even
for the OpenGL games, you need the correct D3D and Glide drivers.

Forget about the actual Alliance drivers, the 3DFX Rush ones work fine.

Once you get that all sorted out Quake/HexenII and all the demos as well as
all my custom code run great.  

Hopefully I will get a non-debug full OpenGL implementation soon.  I use
GL Lines a lot in my tools.
