I wanto play Rollcage Stage 2 in Windows 2000/Whistler but D3D don't work, however Glide rendering DOES work on voodoo cards at least!.

I remember that none of the Glide wrappers really worked. A real 3dfx graphics card is much better that those wrappers.

I dont have any creative TNT or TNT2. I have a TNT card but thats from canopus. The games dont need much graphics processing power, they just need to be able to run!

as for my system, i've found that the best wrapper is GL2Ideal @ www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley/8346/gl2ideal/
 
i've been using it to play Zelda 64 using UltraHLE (N64 emulator), and the wrapper worked perfectly...
 
there are many other wrappers available as well, just search the net, and visit www.ultrahle.com they have a bunch wrappers available at their site as well

Bah. Glide wrappers were only designed to run UltraHLE and as such, dont have around 60%+ of the glide calls a typical game uses. UT, Unreal, Driver and many other games that run in Glide mode, dont run at all, or very screwed up on a wrapper.

Thanks for all the links- I guess Ill be fooling around for a while now testing. i only want one game, the ultimate game, Rollcage 2, to work in win2k
 
If you have not heard about this game, please go to http://www.3dfiles.com/games/rollcagestageii.shtml and try it. But youll have a hard time buying it because it is no longer in production! I warez'd it, thats how I got it
