Hey all, I've been working on building a do-it-all retro gaming PC and it's proved to be more difficult than I thought. I think I finally have my sound issues worked out, my next challenge is 3Dfx/glide games. I am basing this system off of a Pentium 3 800, using DOSbox for older titles, and running "newer" titles nativly in Windows 98. (though I am tempted to use Athlon XP 1600 instead) I am hoping to get a couple Voodoo2 cards (SLI) in the system and working with the old dos games and windows games.
Anyone know if DOSbox emulates glide at all? It would be nice not to have to use the 3dfx cards but the last time I tried emulation it was flakey and buggy in many games.
Does anyone have any tips or thoughts for getting old DOS & Windows 3Dfx/glide games working? Are there a good set of updated drivers out there that I can use? I think the last set I have came as a pack-in with the cards. š
