LLVMPipe of Mesa 17 (dev) now can be built perfectly with LLVM 3.9.1 (on Windows too).
Just saying, they (Mesa devs) removed the LLVMipa dependency so LLVM 3.9.1 can be used (LLVM 3.7.1 is the last with LLVMipa library).

Interestingly, combining QindieGL and Universal Resolution Changer works. Here's Heretic II running at 2560x1440 with the UI sized at 854x480. There's some minor glitches but it's still better than the other alternatives for playing Heretic II:

No such luck for Neverwinter Nights, where the UI size is determined by resolution and no wrapper helps with that (no OpenGL wrappers work with it at all).

I thought it might be an useful combo for other OpenGL games but I couldn't think of a single one that didn't also have better alternative renders.

Wow, that's come a long way since last we looked at it! Thanks for the head's up.

Same thing also works in Kingpin, Quake 2 and Sin (non-Steam version). Not surprising since they're all Quake 2 engine games. They all (Heretic 2 included) already have widescreen patches, but they don't have UI scaling. With Glide render, you can select a lower resolution and force a higher one, that way you get some semblance of UI scaling, but the widescreen patches don't work with Glide. There definitely could be a better solution I'm not thinking of...

Soldier of Fortune sadly didn't like QindieGL, Anachronox already looks pretty good in very high resolutions and Daikatana has a pretty extensive fan patch with proper widescreen support and UI scaling. It's also obviously a bit pointless for Quake 2.

I keep meaning to find the time to make a neat wiki or website explaining everything (and the collection continues to evolve) but time keeps getting away from me. 🙁

New addition:
The same guy churning out new Windows builds of WineD3D for Windows (https://fdossena.com/?p=wined3d/index.frag ) has begun building MESA3D for Windows:

Very useful!

Now you have me wondering if there was anything else leileilol and I had discussed that had source available but not historical binaries. There was a few...
