Open sum.exe in a hex editor. Do a text search for "Voodoo" and replace any instances you find with something else.

handle the autodetection first to get the error message so you know you are making progress
Edit the second instance of voodoo word in sum.exe to check if the message has changed
finaly edit the first voodoo word
To get this working i needed to replace "Voodoo" in summoner.exe as well.

While probably possible, why do you want to? It's an OpenGL game.
Because support 3dfx too, not only opengl...

Quake engine games are OpenGL only. They support 3DFX through wrappers, like dgVoodoo except included with the game.
That you can hack together a way to run the game on 3DFX doesn't really answer my question though: Why do you want to run the game under 3DFX?
With dgVoodoo2 it doesn't work, it crashes if i rename glide3.dll to 3dfxvgl.dll (when there are both files in the same folder)

3dfxvgl.dll need glide3.dll to work as I understand.
3dfxvgl.dll is the games "driver" and "glide3.dll" would be the "system driver"
you would need to config the game to run 3dfxvgl.dll, and copy the glide3.dll from either nglide or dgvoodoo
That file is not included...
'cause it's a QUAKE file.
How i can use integer ratios scaling with dgVoodoo2?
gta2 freezes with a 2x resolution (it happen also with all other, except unforced)
version 2.55.4

If you still want to do it, copy dgVoodoo.conf to the game directory open it in notepad and find the line:
ImageScaleFactor = 1
And change it to your scale factor.
Uhm... tested Mafia1 and Swat3 with ImageScaleFactor = 2 and 800x600 resolution selected in game options, only Swat3 is more pixellated (i'm unable to scale 800x600 resolution... it's a problem of 1600x1200 resolution that it's the same also when scaling is disabled or centered...) frame rate is unstable...
With GTA2 only 640x480 is a good resolution, all other cause HUD pixellated... (it was good with 2x)
i'll test it soon with ImageScaleFactor = 2
tested GTA1 with very high success (tested with scaling mode centered, keep aspect ratio and with scaling strected, 4:3 aspect ratio CRT like
tested also some other games, frame rate is unstable...
ImageScaleFactor = Integer Scaling = Pixelation. Pixelation is the expected result when you integer scale something.
Integer scaling is not meant to make the image look better, it is meant to make the image larger, and only that. Any low resolution image and you will see the pixels it's composed of.

Scanlines are very small, how can i increase it? (are the same with all resolutions...)
Just a couple of comments about Resident Evil 2 (the older port).
I have the UK version so can't directly use your fixed executables, but I compared the US 1.4 exe to your patch to figure out what needed changing in the UK executable. This works, the game starts with dgVoodoo (it doesn't work natively, however), upscaling works great, and running with dgVoodoo gets rid of graphic glitches I get late in the game when running natively. There is one small problem: the video sequences.
I have no problem getting the videos to play, but they're stretched to full screen rather than being letterboxed like they're supposed to be. The scaling settings seem to have no effect. This is true whether I use LAV Video or the original Indeo codec as the decoder.
I got Painkiller (Black Edition, containing Battle out of Hell) working nicely with DGVoodoo2 on win7/64.
