Hello everyone! Now that I've got my own 'Time Machine' up and running with a 4MB Voodoo card (Diamond Monster 3d), I've installed some games for which 3dfx patches were later released. I don't recall having so many problems getting these working back in the day, but I'm having a tough time getting these to work properly. So far I've tried the following:
1) Carmageddon (NOT splat pack): Just get black screen with mouse cursor
2) Screamer 2 (complains with Fatal Error: Dll not found)
3) Blood (complains with Fatal Error: Dll not found)
4) Tomb Raider (No issues!)
5) Descent 2 (Normal version works, but does the 3dFX enhanced version require Windows?)
For numbers 2 & 3, it sounds like the issue might be related to Glide2x.ovl & Glide2x.dll, but I've only seen a very few posts about it. Has anyone gotten these to run properly? Are there certain versions of these files that these games are specifically looking for?
