OpenGL on Voodoo2

It won’t work…games like x-plane won’t detect it and half-life runs like a car without an engine. I have all the latest drivers for my card FOR SURE! IT just won’t work and i used OGLtest and it said I had version 1.1 and everything was fine. I have a best data voodoo2 12MB and run win 98!

All help is appreciated thank you!

I am having the same problems. I cant get Half-Life to work at all. It says ur card doesent support Open GL. Please some one help

I’m not alone!
However in your windows/system directory you should have a file called 3dfxvgl.dll : copy it and rename to opengl32.dll (backup your old opengl32.dll).

You said you have the latest drivers… did you download them by 3dfxgamers?? … with that driver I had a problem: glide3x.dll gave me errors every app that used it…
And you?

13igMac if u are using a voodoo 2 i know how to fix the OpenGL prob i had the same thing.
Go to ur HL folder and find the gldrv folder.
go into it and open up the drvmap.txt file.

MAKE SURE IT READS(if not change it)

Default Defalut
3dfxvgl.dll 3Dfx OpenGl
3Dfxgl.dll 3Dfx Mini Driver

The newest half life patch installs the wrong drvmap.txt file for voodoo 2 drivers.
It was a sad mistake for Sierra.

PS this only fixes ur problem if u have the most recent drivers Hope it helps!

sorry i screwed up the drvmap.txt file it
SHOULD READ

Default Default
3dfxvgl.dll 3Dfx OpenGL
3dfxgl.dll 3Dfx Mini Driver
