I just got a G400 and want to join the GPL community (I didn't buy GPL
yet knowing it only supports Glide out of the box!). I have heard
about D3D & OpenGL patch for this sim. And anyone could share me his
experience??

Thanks!

There is no D3D rasterizer for GPL at this time.

Yeah thats right, I think it was called XGL200(diretX GLide g200),
I'll try it out on my 2nd machine with the G200 as soon as I get my
case PSU back.

about medium textures) but it is a beta version, so there are some bugs.
Most annoying ones are, that the pit board shows 'dummy pit board text' or
just a few rows of letter A's. Also the racing line is unusable.

I don't know if also the speed of the menus with 10 sec delays also is due
to this setup.

You can get the rastrizer from at least :

The OpenGL system doesn't work on my machine. The menus are black and the
program seems to crash when the race should start. I have the latest Matrox
drivers (5.13 I think they were) that should include the final version of
Matrox OpenGL ICD, but no.

Dunno about the G400 though, but I guess it is worth while testing. If you
end up testing this, could you please give some results to the group. I at
least would be very interested in G400 with its speed and environmental bump
mapping.
