INSTALL
1. Install Blood.
2. Patch Blood with 3DFX patch from here: blood.lith.com.
Find out what ver you are currently using. Download the patch that applies to your version.
3. Download and install GliDos v1.19. *ENSURE THAT OPENGLIDE IS NOWHERE ELSE ON YOUR SYSTEM IN YOUR PATH**
4. Download and install Paul GliDos Updates.
Blood on glidos patch (GliDos files for Blood) (FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS)

Mouse
Here is a new version of Glide2x.ovl to slip into your Glidos folder.
It will partially make the mouse work if Glidos is in full screen mode; movement but no buttons. I need to take a look at the build engine source to work out what on earth it is doing about the buttons.
The mouse seems inverted to me and the sensitivity is wrong, plus you really want left/right to strafe when you have a
mouse. I have included my blood.cfg file which fixes all that.

5. Download NOLFB http://www.advsys.net/ken/nolfb.zip and copy to blood directory or into your path
5. Edit blood.bat and add NOLFB.com before the SET statements.
6. Run Blood Setup.exe and turn off SFX if you are using NT4/Windows 2000. Also setup Graphics to the same as that set in GliDos.
ENSURE THAT THE BELOW FILES LOOK LIKE THE FOLLOWING (Change path statements where appropriate)

ISSUES
VIDEO
If GliDOS Server reports 512X384 for the resolution then you have a mismatch between BLood's blood.cfg and GliDos's
resolution. MATCH THE RESOLUTION.
If GliDos is set to higher resolution than blood.cfg then GliDos will scale up.
Use the Openglide that comes with GliDos v1.19. Newer versions seem to cause graphical problems (Ex: OpenGLide 0.08 Alpha
just posted to Sourceforge causes graphical problems in the Blood menu)
Delete old OpenGlide.ini
Only use 640X480 & 800X600.
Anything past 800X600 and Blood will drop back to the desktop.
VERTICAL LINES IN SKY in game Problem with 3DFX patch.
PROBLEMS
Resolution mismatch between GLidos and blood.cfg will cause graphics problems. (Lines where the text is supposed to be
SOUND
DO NOT enable SFX in NT4/2K. ONLY use SFX in BLOOD under 9x/XP.
Emulated SFX that comes with XP works fine with Blood and so does VDMSound.
INFORMATION
BLOOD=BUILD Engine
2K/XP VESA
Provides no LFB, but does return information that claim there is a LFB.
GLDVesa provides a VESA implementation, but provides no LFB.
NOLFB, hooks VESA calls and reports to requesting programs the lack of an LFB.
Bottom line. DO NOT use NOLFB & GLDVESA together. Test both seperately and in point of fact when testing Blood for current
testing DO NOT USE GLDVESA.
GLDVESA works for some people and doesn't for most but NOLFB works almost all the time with BUILD engine games.

NEED TO LOOK INTO
Blood will work on one computer but not on another. Why? GLDVESA/NOLFB ISSUE? Drivers?
Blood works on 98 but not on XP on same computer. Graphics problems.
Blood & Blood one whole unit both will not work on same computer
Graphical problems most likely not a driver problem. All NVIDIA drivers tried and same behavior.
