Good morning everyone!
Without changing the settings, I just copied dgvoodoo2 to the game folder and run it. And in some areas you can see a white streak of broken lighting.

This happens when anti-aliasing is enabled. Make sure anti-aliasing is disabled in dgVoodoo and in your graphics card control panel.

There is even a loss of texture with anti-aliasing. But in dgvoodoo2 I did not set anti-aliasing. Without dgvoodoo2, there is no such problem.

Does it differ from the native one?

I ask it because, indeed, I get broken lights here and there, but natively it's the same. Like this one:

The rendering technique of the game is very sensitive to forced resolution/MSAA.
Play it at unforced (native) resolution and it'll be fine.
