Glide 2.54 and 3.01/GPL

Have been getting nice help on finding these drivers. Is everyone in agreement that only 2.53 will work on GPL? Thanks, Trey Behan

well, as far as I can see 2.53 is made for GPL ;-) You can get it at The Fast Lane http://www.grandprix2.com/gpl -- Greetinx Micha?l 'NRG' Hompus Webmaster The Fast Lane http://www.grandprix2.com/gpl Everything you need for GPL !!!

I use the latest Monster2 drivers from diamond and DirectX 6.1. Since buying a fan for my card, all problems have disappeared. Vintook

I've been using the latest Diamond 2.54 drivers on my Creative Labs 12 Meg Voodoo2. Works just fine. Haven't messed with copying 2.53 to GPL or anything. ANash > Have been getting nice help on finding these drivers. Is everyone in agreement > that only 2.53 will work on GPL? > Thanks, > Trey Behan

Another question: I downloaded Glide 2.53, how to install? I tried to put it in my GPL-folder, as was proposed somewhere else earlier. Result: cannot run 3DFX anymore. Any idea?

Glide 2.53 is for Voodoo 2 boards. If I'm not mistaken, the current Glide version for Voodoo 1 cards is 2.46. You don't need, or want, Glide 2.53 on your system at all.

>Pop it into Windows\System folder. I was told to pop it into GPL folder (I'm installing Diamond Monster 3D II Voodoo2 tonight). Which is it for my system, using 2.53? Trey Behan

Pop it into Windows\System folder.

If like me you need 2.54 for other games (Falcon 4 for one) then put 2.54 into the system folder and 2.53 into the GPL folder Windows searches for .dll files in a certain order - starting with the same directory as the program that requested them, and then windows/system and windows directories. So by doing what I said, most programs will get the latest version and gpl the earlier release. >>Pop it into Windows\System folder. >I was told to pop it into GPL folder (I'm installing Diamond Monster 3D II >Voodoo2 tonight).

Well, when the drivers go through an "Install" or "setup" procedure, they invariably get put into the \System folder. I recently installed Glide 2.53 and was instructed to place it in the Windows\System folder, which I did and GPL runs perfectly fine. > >Pop it into Windows\System folder. > I was told to pop it into GPL folder (I'm installing Diamond Monster 3D II > Voodoo2 tonight).
