Those games use OpenGL, not Direct3D 1-9 or Glide which dgVoodoo is made for.

Oh jeez sorry, I confused them with Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy. EDIT: And rereading your post, I don't understand how the control panel wouldn't load.

I forgot to reply to this question when it was current...

Right click on dgVoodooCPL.exe (on the Details tab) and select 'Analyze wait chain'.

Let's keep this thread alive even when it's even less current: some versions of ogg-winmm (winmm.dll) included with GoG games can cause this. Just temporarily move winmm.dll out when you have to make config changes.

I maintain a fork of OggWinmm on GitHub. I'm glad I never saw that bug. I'm curious, how can it occur ?

Although, sometimes the game won't load ogg-winmm unless it's named something else (like WINMX)

Renaming it (and modifying the import in the game's executable or whatever game dll is responsible for the CD audio music API calls) fixes it.

I imagine it can fix this "no popup" problem too.
