Greetings,

Is the a listing anywhere for the DOS or Windows games that either "just aren't going to run no matter what" or had 3Dfx support built into them and therefore won't work with Glidos or Glide wrappers? I'm referring to games that didn't get Direct3d support, so the only way to get acceleration is with a 3Dfx option.

Perhaps some of these are:

Whiplash 3d / Fatal Racing
Archimedian Dynasty
Pod
Extreme Assault
EF2000 v2 / 3Dfx

I've been getting out some old games and trying to determine which will be possible to get running, and which are going to need a genuine Voodoo1(or maybe 2) to work. I understand that some titles such as Whiplash and EF2000 may require someone to seriously re-write them before offering 3D accelerations usable on modern computers, so I'm not holding my breath.

One non-accelerated DOS game called Star Rangers (a Star Raiders clone) wouldn't run no matter what I tried, but seems useable in DOSBOX.

I've gotten a lot of surprisingly old stuff working with the aid of DOSBOX, VDMS, Glidos, a memory allocation utility (to hide some of my ram) or one of the other Glide wrappers. Many of the Glide wrapped games even run at 1600x1200, whether or not they ever supported that. Longbow2, F15, Sports Car GT, Grand Prix Legends, and many more are now running happily.

Now I'm just looking for some help to sort out which ones to give up on vs; which ones to keep trying with.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
