Nfs 2se worked with almost no problems on both computers but how do i use the 3dfx rendering. The nfs 2se demo version does not run on both computers as it needs something called glide but i have no clue on what glide is. So before i bought the full version of nfs 2se i had to play the nfs 2 demo version which worked perfectly on both computers. How do i get 3dfx rendering to work. I'm having to play nfs2se in software rendered mode.

3dfx is meant for 3dfx video cards, the above mentioned things i assume emulate 3dfx.

AMD Ryzen 3700X | ASUS Crosshair Hero VIII (WiFi) | 16GB DDR4 3600MHz RAM | MSI Geforce 1070Ti 8GB | Windows 10 Pro x64.

incredibly enough, google will tell you, you lazy sod. Stop posting in such a demanding manner. Your posts remind me of someone who was banned not so long ago.

Does anyone know where to download it.
edit: does dgvoodo work on xp. It sounds as if it can really damage the system.

If you are afraid that installing dgvoodoo will damage your system, try this instead.
Do a GOOGLE search for dgvoodoo (really, it works).
Download the 1.31 log version.
Unzip it and place the glide2x.dll in the game folder.
Run the game.
A later version may work as well, but I already had 1.31, so thats the one I tried.
Yes, it works on xp.
