Glide Run-time Drivers

These drivers are used by the gaming world to 'talk to' the 3Dfx chipset. As such, they're manufacturer-independant - all the Voodoo-based cards use the same Glide drivers. Note that some older games may require a specific version of Glide - check the game's documentation for details.

GLQuake, GLHexen II and Quake II OpenGL miniports

For those of you who are new to 3Dfx and GLQuake, you need to (1) install GLQuake, (2) install Glide and then (3) install the OpenGL miniport.

If you want to read more about 3Dfx and GLQuake, check out the GLQuake FAQ from 3Dfx. There are loads of utilities and FAQs supporting and covering GLQuake and Quake II on the 3Dfx Voodoo chipset - I'll post links when I come across good ones.

Utilities

Note that there's a small problem with 3DCC if you use the 4.1.1 PowerVR drivers ... VideoLogic discuss the problem and it's resolution in Support Note 308. NEC will, apparently, be releasing a new version of 3DCC to cope with the problem.

Hmmm ... I'll have to find them first ... for now -

Everything that is GLQuake ... from the guru himself.
