I didn't mention SimCopter as the glide version's more of an unplayable proof of concept tech demo (...relatively speaking to the actual game).

we have to wipe out all d3d 2 and 3 only games from the list

Some games get to a higher resooution, like Moto Racer and Daytona USA, using dgVoodoo. They are dx2 and dx3 games. Do they qualify for this?
You mean the original Daytona USA or Daytona USA Deluxe?

Yes I meant the Deluxe. Moreover there seems to be a D3D patch for it.

Interesting list. Thx!

There is and it looks amazing, even at its original resolution.
Do we have this list in online? Google spreadsheet is perfect way for share such info.

dos games are obvious so not included
third column is dx ver taken from mobygames/pcgamingwiki
Thanks for sharing this updated Glide games list! Having the DirectX version from MobyGames and PCGamingWiki in the third column is really helpful for troubleshooting compatibility issues.
It might be useful to add another column for known wrappers or emulators that work well with each game (like dgVoodoo2, nGlide, etc.). This way, users can quickly see which tool to try for each title.
I tested "Zeus: Master of Olympus" using dgVoodoo2 and it worked perfectly on Windows 10 with DirectX 11. No graphical glitches and the game runs smoothly. If anyone has issues, make sure to set the wrapper to force Glide mode.
1998's Gunmetal by Mad Genius Software. The Windows and MS-DOS version came on the same disc, and the former shared the same limitation as the latter version, and only uses Glide for hardware rendered 3D. The game's hardware rendering is buggy, missing some key features of the software renderer, and performance issues arise that don't exist in the latter. Of minor note, the game makes little use of Directdraw for the Windows version for 2D acceleration, which has been learned from the fact that some popular methods to hook into Directdraw games don't work correctly for Gunmetal.
