Does this exist? CAN it exist?
The only thing i've ever tried with TinyGL was an old ResidualVM build and IIRC the TinyGL stuff was built statically. It supposedly improved it quite a bit too
I just wonder how that TinyGL could be adapted for slightly more modern stuffs (i.e. Q3A w/ Vertex lighting and GL extensions disabled could look okay if not blending anything specially)
I've been looking at this TinyGL stuff and I fail to see how building it as a opengl32.dll or MiniGL dll would be a good thing. Why not just use an old build of Mesa with hardware acceleration for your target graphics card? TinyGL is just going to be a feature-limited software renderer.

Well, that's kind of the appeal - it is a software renderer - a theoretically fast one, at that.
Sure, why not. Only, implementing the features needed to run anything slightly more modern would probably take more code than what TinyGL currently has. =)
I'm not all that sure about the fastness..
Anyway, there's been several projects similar to this, like http://titaniumgl.tk/
