A previous thread (Faulty Voodoo 2?) mentioned getting the file from Falconfly but the site is long dead: http://falconfly.3dfx.pl/downloads/glide_sdk-243.zip and I haven't been able to find any mirrors. I've looked in the Vogons vintage driver library (https://www.vogonsdrivers.com/index.php?catid … 1&menustate=0,0) and maybe it's in there and I'm not looking in the right place. Also checked Phil's Computer Lab (https://www.philscomputerlab.com/) and same thing.

A helpful fellow did manage to find a copy of mojo.exe in this archive on archive.org: https://ia802901.us.archive.org/view_archive. … 0/monster3d.zip with a file date of 1997. Just want to make sure that the version in there is the most recent, trying to troubleshoot a Diamond Monster 3d II 8mb. Anyone know if mojo.exe was ever updated from the 1996-09-23 11:57 version in the archive?

Hi
With any Voodoo2 SLI, on any motherboard Mojo.exe, launched in DOS7 always reports to me: "Scan-Line Interleaved? No"
But in Windows98 3dfx Hardware Profile reports "ScanLine Interleave Detected!"
Why doesn't Mojo.exe want to report "Yes"?

3dfx SLI relies on drivers. See this thread: Re: Voodoo 2 SLI mismatch in MS-DOS

I currently have two identical "Diamond Monster 3D II PCI 12 MB" cards
They are connected by an SLI bridge.
I run Mojo.exe in a separate directory containing DOS4GW.exe
I would like Mojo.exe to report "Scan-Line Interleaved? Yes"
Setting environment variables
SST_SLIDETECT=1 or SST_SLIDETECT=0
SET SSTV2_SLIDETECT=1 or SET SSTV2_SLIDETECT=0
does not change anything.
If I place the GLIDE2X.OVL file in this directory - this also does not change anything.
However, in Windows98 all games work in 1024x768, everything is fine.
But I would like to see in DOS, so that Mojo.exe reports "Scan-Line Interleaved? Yes"

Obviously MOJO.EXE can not be forced to report "Scan-Line Interleaved? Yes" in pure DOS as it can not use any GLIDE2X.OVL. Try MOJO.EXE in "M$-DOS Prompt" from within win9x. Voodoo2 SLI was not meant to be used by any DOS game, accept that it's "a windows thing".
