Unreal uses glide2x api, and glide2x doesn't support 32 bits but only 16 bits. The glide3x api can do 32 bits if the hardware supports is (i.e. voodoo4/5). Since glide2x and glide3x are not interchangeable, you can't get 32 bits rendering from unreal+glide.

... CVS setup and grabbed the final development branch of glide3x that was worked on. ... Testing resulted in an approximately 2fps boost in timedemo demo1.dm2 in quake 1 at 640x480 on the P3/V3 combo. Not worth upgrading only for that 1 or 2 fps gain, considering the possibility of something else …

It works now. Great. Thank you very much for testing. Can you tell us exactly what model of Voodoo Rush you are using? When 320x240 is chosen the screen is split horizontally and rendered twice. Arghh.. We should revise our menus. Lowest resolution for a voodoo should practically start from 512x384 …

There was just one type of error among many lines in the glide3x source code. I tried to typecast the pointer as intended, but attached is a patch for verification. That patch is wrong. The intention of the original code is to do pointer math as if the pointer is of the casted type. You want …
