Hey all,

I've got a Voodoo3 3500 disc that is pretty close to this upload:
http://vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=1 … 5&menustate=1,0

But my versions are a couple revisions newer. Given that the revisions are in the hundreds, I don't imagine it would amount to much, but:
3dfxOGL.dll: 1.0.0.0444 ICD
3dfx32v3.dll: 4.11.01.1204
glide2x.dll: 2.61.00.0439
glide3x.dll: 3.10.00.0439

Is it worth preserving an image of the disc?

Yes.. along with a scan of the disc itself.

Always nice to have original disc images if for no other reason than for preservation purposes.

I agree with cyclone3d.

I agree with the two previous posters.

Scan the disc as well 😀

Disc can be uploaded to vogonsdrivers or to archive.org
