This lets you play 3Dfx games with Glide on Radeon cards.

Game compatibility (words from the author):
1)... fine
Unreal I
Quake2 3dfxGL
Robo Rumble 3D
Pandemonium 2 (improved) - pixel perfect on Radeon8500 and up
Rayman 2 (new entry and improved) - pixel perfect on Radeon 8500

2)... with minor glitches
Wing Commander Prophecy - the videos are messed up (pink)
Unreal Tournament - some depth precision problems in multipass, a tad slow
Subculture - issues with the water surface in the standard FPU codepath, strangely enough it's perfect with 3DNow ... map overlay is missing
MDK - fast enough now but some screen flashes and explosions are still messed up
UltraHLE - some games look weird, but try it
Red Baron 3D (improved) - ingame menu is jerky and shows font corruption, the game itself is fine now

3)... with major glitches
Joint Strike Fighter - entirely too slow to play, pink shadows around hud text
Test Drive 4 (improved) - overlay graphics/weather effects missing
Gex 3D - and I thought, I had fixed it for good ...
Ultima IX - bah !

4)... or rather not
Need for Speed 2 - interesting ...
Uprising - what a mess ... and painfully slow as well
Starsiege Tribes - don't try that at home

ATI Radeon only!!!
