It looks like VRAM corruption, so try changing FrameBuffer Access and OffScreen Drawing to lower settings.

Are you using save-states? If so, the damage could already be done to the VRAM, and loading the save-state just loads the bad VRAM image. If this is the case, you will need to find some way of coaxing the game in to re-uploading the damaged VRAM areas. Going through different menu systems, etc. may help, as may loading from a memcard.
The Voodoo³ Glide³ driver appears old. Is there a reason you are using old drivers? If not, update to the latest/last 3dfx drivers for the Voodoo³. Some people have good results with recent "hybrid" driver sets, but I can't express an opinion on these as I have not personaly used them.

Change your "Frambuffer access" back to just "write".

and maybe try "disable" the "bi-linear filtering"

I had the same TEXT problems in FFIX, and changing those fixed for me.

I still recommend newer drivers, since the Voodoo³ should work fine with Advanced blending :)
Which Voodoo³ card do you have? 2000/3000, or 3500TV?
What OS do you run? Win95/98/ME, or NT/2000?

If you have a Voodoo2000/3000 and run Win95/98/ME, download these drivers.

If you have a Voodoo2000/3000 and run Win2000, download these drivers.

There don't seem to be WinNT4 drivers for Voodoo3 on the 3dfx page.

Voodoo3500TV needs special driver sets, which are detailed on the 3dfx download page.
