Hi,

I have seen several Glide listing on the web including Vogons <3 however my retro computing is focused on throwing some LAN partys for my friends and would be interested to find more IPX games from 1996-1998 era that supports glide and why not also D3D. I have 5pcs of 233MMX+Voodoo1 setups (thats why the year scope)

Has anyone seen such IPX listing or some other way how to identify which glide/d3d games from this era would have IPX support?

You can at least count all the early DirectPlay games as IPX is one of the supported protocols (among modem, serial, and TCP-IP) and DirectPlay covers early LithTech, LucasArts (Outlaws and Jedi Knight) and many DirectX2-6 Microsoft games

MobyGames' Windows IPX list is hilariously tiny. The DOS list is more populated but no way to filter that down to Glide from there

Thanks! At least couple of new games in the MobyGames listing that I will give a try! 😀

Im actually running Win95 in the setups, but surely we also play pure DOS games, you don’t have a LAN party without ”Hail to the king, baby!” 😁
