Hi, I want to play some old glide-games with my C610 i865gv. I have WinME and WIn2K installed.
I tested some games here are the results:

1. Ignition => works just fine with the V2-Exe
2. GTA2 => I alway get "direct3d", what do I have to do, to get glide? (D3D stutters and is therefore no option)
3. MIG29 => the game tells me that I should update the glide drivers?
4. Tigershark => game has issues with the title-screens and some gfx-glitches, but ok for playing.

What I really like is, that dgvoodoo really works and the visuals are really great.

Thx for helping me out.

The game detects Voodoo through PCI. And fails.
You must edit registry entries in "HKLM\SOFTWARE\DMA Design Ltd\GTA2\Screen". "Rendername" must be "3dfx.dll", "videoname" - "DMAGlide.dll".

Asus P4P800 SE/Pentium4 3.2E/2 Gb DDR400B,
Radeon HD3850 Agp (Sapphire), Catalyst 14.4 (XpProSp3).
Voodoo2 12 MB SLI, Win2k drivers 1.02.00 (XpProSp3).

Now I get a Blackscreen in GTA2 with WinME. What DG-Voodoo Version should I use and how do I need to configure it? Thx!

Beside that:
- ShadowWarrior 3dfx Port does not work either-
- Turok1 does work with a tweaked ini (otherwise no 3dfx detection) but it has some graphical glitches.
