Arghhh!!! I guess what you're seeing and I am seeing are not the same
thing. There's no link at all ... I even did a search for rastogl in that
thread just to see if I'm going blind but none of the 'finds' were a link
:-(

Could you possibly post the link to the rastogl.ZIP

ps. This is what I see when I look at the given link to the forum:

 Last time OGL ?  

Hi GPL-friends,

today I used the OpenGL-driver once again
and the menues and driving on the track was OK.

Then I leaved the track and CrashToDesktop
with an windows error message. I looked into
the details and once again I started the Disassembler
to look into the programcode of rastogl.dll

I found the right programcode and I changed
the conditional jump command in front of it.

Now all seems working right. But I want someone
else to test the modified dll.
Maybe if you change the tracks very often
or run other software after GPL your memory
runs out. This is because I patched the
"mipfree"-function.

My system is running with win98 and a nvidia
card with drivers 29.xx (Edited on 31.07: and
NVOPENGL.DLL from the 30.30 drivers.)

Please backup your original rastogl.dll file.

Greetings

Willi

It works perfectly fine from IE as that is what I use.  What have you guys been smoking down under
lately?

I can't answer for the guys down under, but here up over I haven't been
smoking anything, the thread shows up fine in IE but there's no
attachment, in Opera which I normally use, there's no problem

I'm using IE and I see it.  Must depend on IE version.

Forgot to add, I am able to use the standard Papyrus OpenGL driver
without issues, so you might want to try that first if you haven't
already.  I'm using it with Win 98 gold on a ASUS socket 370

I did have a problem with pauses, so I went back to D3D but the pauses
were still there, and even after a reboot still had pauses in
practically every game I played that night.  I'm assuming the pauses
were due to an unrelated systems issue.  Other than that the OGL driver
worked flawlessly, and I noticed that there were transparent windows and
other features visible with the OGL driver that were opaque in D3D.  As
soon as I get the pausing issue sorted out I am going back to OGL.

Prolly some security setting or something, I checked last night on my
home PC again, and it worked in IE there, both Comps run WinXP PRO with
all updates installed, I might have messed around with some settings on
my PC here at work as I need to use IE here every so often, at home I've
never used IE since I installed WinXP and Opera

I'm too lazy to compare settings though )
