GPL freezes up?

Hi,

I'm trying to get GPL to work on my system but it freezezs up when I try to
use my Voodoo2!

I hear theres a problem with Glide 2.54 with GPL but how do I get Glide 2.53
to run with GPL but 2.54 with the other games I run?

TIA

Tommy

Tom,

You put the "glide2x.dll" from 2.53 in your GPL directory. Now GPL will find
it and use it before it looks in your Windows\system for Glide, but all your
other games will use the newer one in your Windows\system directory.

Leave your version 2.54 alone (windows\system) but copy your 2.53 version in your
sierra\gpl directory. GPL first looks in its directory before to find a driver,
then (and only then) it goes to the windows\system one. This will allow your other
games to work too.
