Hey people I am trying a mod trick to get "Half life" to use the voodoo2 card.

It's a trick I found on this forum.
https://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/show … enGL-on-Voodoo2

It's something like you have into your Windows/system directory and copy the "3dfxVGL.dll" and rename it too "Opengl32.dll" and I need to know what directory I need to put it in.

Ask in Marvin. This forum is for Windows games on modern systems. Respect the database.

😕

Just put it in the same directory as your hl.exe (or whatever it is called).

You don't. Half-Life uses the 3dfx MiniGL provided in the gldrv folder. That will use the Voodoo2 card at its fastest and best.

The thread linked contains crap advice and should not be advised.
NEVER EVER REPLACE C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\OPENGL32.DLL
