Re: Voodoo5 5500's DirectX Support

Posted on 2018-08-05, 21:15

It doesn't matter. I Always use latest Directx9.0c. If you look at the display tab it shows DDI version : 7.0. That means the driver supports up to DX7. This doesn't mean you can't get newer DX games to run, you may have garbage on the screen or bad FPS. A non official driver may fix this, but you …

Re: Old 3dfx splash screen with voodoo2 ?

Posted on 2018-08-01, 22:47

Yeah, you can get it with old drivers, but I'd love to find a way of transplanting the old splash into the newer drivers! EDIT: Had a play but I can't find the equivalent file in the older drivers :( You can use the Quantum 3D intro though which is pretty spiffy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= …

I think you need pre 1999 drivers. I didn't notice any difference with fastvoodoo anyways. I tried 3dfxspl dlls from older drivers but that didn't work. For Dos games the splash screen is perhaps in glide2x.ovl. those two 3dfxspl dlls are for Windows glide games if I'm correct.

Damn, I also had no luck after recapping it. I also asked over here (badcaps) but have given up for now. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=69843 Maybe read that for some insights. One guy there told me to put it in the freezer overnight (in a bag!!). This didn't work for me, but you can …

Re: DosBox: how avoid the black borders?

Posted on 2018-07-28, 22:14

You should ask this question in the proper forum, but you can see the game fullscreen I think. Mess around with the dosbox.conf file like this, not sure if this will work: fullscreen=false fulldouble=false fullresolution=Original (I think this is the one you need) windowresolution=Original Haven't …

Re: Baldur's Gate 1 on Windows 10 multiplayer won't connect

in Windows
Solved, finally! I connected both pcs directly with a cable and gave them static ip addresses. This worked. Then put them back on the router and it still worked, put them on dhcp and didn't work anymore. So the issue was the default gateway setting , I have a modem and a router in bridged mode. …

Baldur's Gate 1 on Windows 10 multiplayer won't connect

in Windows
Hi, I've been trying to play BG1 with my brother over the network (internal). He was over at my place last week and I used my Windows 98 PC to host and he played on a Windows XP PC. Worked perfectly. A couple of years ago I played the game on Windows 2000 (hosted) and he played on Windows 8.1 ( …

Re: Does a Voodoo Banshee Need a Driver For Dos

Posted on 2018-07-09, 23:02

Yes, you need the GLIDE2X.OVL file for 3Dfx Glide in DOS mode (the .OVL file is the DOS 'driver'). You can get it from any Banshee driver on the internet. When you install the drivers under Windows 98 the GLIDE2X.OVL file is automatically placed in your system directory (or Windows directory, not …
