By the time you rewrite it for 3dFX no-one will give a ***about N2,
N3 being the sim of choice for NASCAR fans. Dedicating time to a
"perfect" implementation of 3dFX support would serve only to delay
future products, and is why I've argued against having ANY kind of
3dFX support in NASCAR2, never mind a time-guzzling, picture-perfect
Glide version. 3dFX support in N2 was demanded and supplied, and you
can be sure it was to the best it could possibly be done given time
and resource constraints.
Cheers!

Just because I am rather negative on this 3dfx patch, I fully
do expect N3 to have full native Glide support. In short I
completely agree with every point you made. I'll most
likely be purchasing N3 too so there :-)

So I guess you'd like racing around boxes in circles?

I do not have the lines..I just installed the patch and ran N2. I didn't add
anything to my autoexec.bat file. Is AA on by default?

Still, what is good is that it helps those with lower end machines and
3dFX to get improved frame-rates, but also it shows a commitment to
3dFX (Glide) as well as Rendition, and that is good for GPL and N3 as
you say.
You could always buy GPL as well just to get a taste of what N3 will
be like.... :-)
Cheers!
