Can anyone try to reproduce this behaviour? It may be me after all. I did reproduce that behaviour without dbgl, it says "access denied" with all emucr builds, left a message @ emucr with no replies. Historically EmuCr builds are crap, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. Recommend long-term …

That's okay, many of lightmaster's posts are confusing. ;) dgVoodoo 1.x, I forget if it ever supported the spinning logo. The spinning logo is generated by the game+wrapper loading an original 3dfx file. With original 3dfx cards it came from a particular driver included with the drivers, IIRC it was …

Man! I feel for ya dude. Sadly there is no selling on VOGONS, but at least you've come to the right place to gauge interest - plus you phrased the thread as "how much is this worth" so you're okay. 😉 Hang in there, hurrication!

I'm too lazy for this (add supported APIs to my list) task. Maybe later. Much later. By the way - why someone need this "3dfx exclusive" list? What about "our new videocards not supports DX5/6/7/8 very well" problem? To be more precise "not support at all". Arabian Nights and CART Precision Racing …

That method would include 3d-non-3dfx API games. You'd already be halfway there. What, should I spell everything out? "You'd already be halfway there" means that you'd still need to filter out the "3d-non-3dfx" games from vetz's famous list. I mean, that's brain-dead obvious. I stand by my …
