First of all - thanks for reply... Why not? Because the only way I know
to force this game to use 640x480 120 HZ is to set Option "VertRefresh"
"120" in section "device" in my xorg.conf - and when i set this option
the only resolution I can run anything is 640x480 :) - meaby there is
some other way? If so please tell me...

Not with this game I think - even when I set my resolution to
640x480x32 120 Hz and then run that game - it switch to to 640x480 60
HZ...

Hmmm... I found something... interesting - this game has two modes -
software and 3DFX - when I use software game runs in 640x480 120 HZ but
when I use 3DFX (I'm using  zeckensack's Glide wrapper v0.84c) it runs
in 640x480 60 HZ. I think we can say that this game uses Opengl (it
uses GLIDe but  zeckensack's Glide wrapper v0.84c translate glide to
Opengl so...).
I already tried setting refresh in wrapper configurator... - but it
didn't work
