Mantles' justification for existence is to ease porting since they're also AMD powered...

I'd be surprised if Mantle takes off as the new Glide.

It's not a new issue either. Nvidia overdid the extension list as far back as 2000 for the Geforce2 causing some apps to crash already. Even modeling apps like Milkshape3D had a problem with it early on

Ever tried renaming it to quake2.exe or glquake.exe? The extension list overflow i'm betting is what is doing it in. BTW Deleting ref_gl.dll is a bad idea. That DLL is the engine-specific renderer backend module that redirects to opengl32.dll, 3dfxgl, pvrgl, etc..

One "WAVETABLE!" WSS card i've seen just loaded a software Vsynth driver instead. also one AD18xx card i've tried was bad that made everything sound higher pitched and distorted.

You can change the driver post-install.

My favorite reuse is the "YEAAAAHHH" 1up sample for Jill - which is heard constantly in the Blood Money title music 😀

Could be a compatibility profile taking over. Tried renaming the exe to something else? DISCLAIMER: I have not run Redline since 2000.

You could try running VirtualBox, though I am not sure if it supports guest OpenGL acceleration on that platform (I know it does for Windows XP guest)

Funny. First Beneath a Steel Sky, then Stargunner, and now this? GoG's catching up on the old freeware releases 🤣
