I have been playing through the game recently using software rendering and am just trying to get 3D working. dgVoodoo looks terrific, but there is something going on between this game and full screen scaling. Pretty much no matter what I try, the game will be stretched on my 1080p monitor. I would …

Well, it is my lucky day! In an effort to see if digital CD audio itself was the problem, I attached a USB CD-ROM drive. In order for that to work, I had to install some USB mass storage drivers, so I downloaded the nusb36e.exe installer from https://www.raymond.cc/blog/how-to-install-usb-mass- …

Isn't their a setting some where you can enable digital audio through the data cable connection? I forget where it is, but I know it's there somewhere. Might in the multimedia settings. Thanks, yes I am using that option already. This thread is about understanding and resolving a performance issue …

Hmmm, 95 compatibility mode worked here in Vista for DK1 (same thing I had to do to get it to work in Vista). A long time ago I had to use the ACT to get DK1 to work in XP but over time I no longer had to. MS probably included a fix for it in the compatibility database.....but not likely since if …

@Carrera: if you read this: I've seen your message about Mech2, as you have problems with it. I remember, kjliew told me to copy a 3 bytes file of Mech2 ones (can't remember the name) into the root directory to get it to work. I wonder if it could be your problem too... Does it drops you back to …

Has the issue of this thread been addressed since the last posting? This post by Flashback leads me to believe that mech2 3dfx enhanced CAN be glide wrapped under win9x! /viewtopic.php?p=64250&highlight=#64250 Also, give this a look: http://www.netmech.org/

Ah that explains it. Thanks for clearing that up. :cool: By the way, I finally found a preowned copy of Mechwarrior 2 Enhanced for the Diamond Monster 3D at my local game shop for $3 heh. I'm happy to report that it works extremely well with dgV 1.31 glide.dll. :happy: Really appreciate the reply. …
