Help Please...Win2K: GPL quits after Intro screen

by Kent Hosterma » Mon, 31 Jul 2000 04:00:00

Recently switched to Win2k, GPL is supposed to be compatible. Any ideas on
why it won't run.
It's not my system, I've been running GPL for months on the same system
under Win98. I have the latest 3dfx drivers for Win2k installed. Any help or
suggestions will be much appreciated.

Cheers, Kent Hosterman

Kent,

You need to use the Glide2x fix for GPL (available from the USPits??). Put
the dll in the GPL folder and modify the supplied glide.ini with a line that
says: "GPL Override=1". This will allow it to work properly, but the menu
screens will be squashed up in the top left hand corner - the actual racing
uses the whole screen though.

I hope this helps. I've managed to get everything working beautifully under
W2K - even the LWFF. All I need is for someone to show me how to stop those
screens being squeezed, cos it makes the chat incredibly difficult to read.

Cheers,
Chaz
