Yes, but the format should be ISO.

The driver doesn't come bundled with the DirectX redistributable, but that should already be installed on the emulated computer. Besides, the last one that doesn't require DX7 is dated 21 Oct 1999.

like this?

Yes.

hm. so do these 2 come with DirectX 6 redistributable? or do all of them don't come with redistributed DirectX 6?

None of them come with the redistributable, just only the driver.

so if I downloaded this one on emulated win 98, it will install DirectX 6, or do I have to install DirectX 6 manually?

If it is the Windows 98 SE, it will come with DX6 installed already.

Don't make things so hard for yourself. If you read the readme of the driver you downloaded from archive.org, it says it needs DX7.

Simply download DX7.0 or DX7.0a, put it in an ISO file, open it in PCem and install it.

No need to mess around with older drivers, specially a super old one like 1.00.

Indeed, this is the first thing that I said to the OP regarding the drivers he originally installed. That should be easily understandable to everyone.

ok I'll try the DirectX 7 and the DirectX 6 versions of voodoo 3. I will give an update on it later!

You're welcome! 😀

PCGamingWiki. Although it focuses on running games in modern computers, it shows the real system requirements for older games and sometimes mentions the minimum DirectX version that has to be installed ("DirectX 7.0 compatible" for example).

Extract the contents from the zip file, create an ISO image from the extracted files and from there you can mount it in PCem.

how do I do it? do I need imgburn?

Yes, ImgBurn or a similar program is enough for creating a simple ISO image.

Any To ISO is now yours! https://crystalidea.com/anytoiso the free version works up to a certain amount of GB. Giggle Bytes.
