Screamer finally gets Voodoo 3 support!

This game never had any 3DFX patch, it's now a thing !
As many remember only Screamer 2 & Rally had a 3DFX patch.

1This new exe allow to launch Screamer on Pure MS-DOS using your real 3DFX Voodoo 3 GPU !
2Full GPU acceleration, expect 50-60 fps along with a decent CPU (from Pentium II 233Mhz).
3
41) Copy and replace STARTH.EXE and STARTL.EXE to game folder
52) Make sure to use XMS Memory under Pure DOS
63) Run STARTH.EXE the game will use your Voodoo3 for all 3D rendering.

You can test on the Voodoo 2 and banshee (as the API i'm using is based on the Glide 2.X) but i doubt that it could works.
For Rush, Voodoo 3, Voodoo 4, Voodoo 5 they will works fine.
But Voodoo 1 no.

I only own a Voodoo 3 that's why i'm doing all thoses patchs for this card.

Next patch coming is Duke Nukem 3D for Voodoo 3 😀.

Have you tested with voodoo 3 car emulated in pcem ?

I would like to play screamer in 3d acceleration but at this time only s3 virge can have this version.

If you can to have a 3dfx version of hi octane it would be amazing.

I've tested on emulation and on real hardware with a Voodoo 3 yes.

A Voodoo 2 is still a great option when paired with very powerful cards, such as an nVIDIA GeForce 4 Ti.
This way you get the best of both worlds: high quality, resolution and framerates for most OpenGL and Direct3D titles using the nVIDIA card + Glide compatibility (and also better compatibility with some of the older, more problematic Direct3D titles) with the Voodoo 2.
