PROJECT DISCONTINUED IN CURRENT FORM.

The sucessor called TitaniumDFX.

-TitaniumDFX needs stronger CPU in 3dfx mode. Many features of 3dfx cards will be emulated.
-TitaniumDFX's game compatibility with the great old opengl games is mutch lower than other 3dfx card opengl drivers, it is probably much slower than them.
-OpenGL version number is 1.3, and i am not plan to expand it currently.
-ALL Donations are welcome. Serious, becouse of the huge time what a full opengl implementation needs to be created. Paypal accepted, can be accesed on http://legendgrafix.tk
-TitaniumDFX is freeware.



status:
-RGB, RGBA, BGR, BGRA, tons of others support
-True color rendering (not in 3dfx mode of course)
-Texture support up to 4096x4096 (3dfx of c. will be downscaled)
-vertex arrays
-VBO
-Display Lists
-Frame buffer image draw supported (eeeeek)
-triangle, quad, quad strip, triangle strip, triangle fan & friends works. Rendering is triangle based.
-vertex coloring works
-multitexturing
-alpha blending (most common cases works fine)
-SSE and 3dnow! optimized drivers can be compiled
-Quake2, Half Life, xmoto, and most of nehe tutorials running with suitable speed. Minor bugs.

TitaniumDFX is not yet downloadable, i need time.
!OLD! thundergl files can be found here:

Just a stupid question: What about catching up the work on already "mature" DLLs? MesaFX shows up as OGL 1.2 compatible ... so why don't you take and tune it? If all skilled programmers work together, we'd get more compatible drivers than those made only by one person.

You have good questions :P :D
(dont forget MesaFX is very very different than this one. Its only for 3dfx cards. This is not, this is for all cards, and arent using vendorspecific stuffs)

hmm... You can combinate it with mesa, if you replace the windows/system32/opengl32.dll with the mesa's opengl32.dll. Then the ThunderGL will connect to the Mesa.
Quake4 runs also without Tgl, if you using the mesa's doom3 specific opengl32.dll.

Yes, but only Quake4 demo runs, the full version does not run with D3-MesaFX.

benna: search for all opengl32.dll-s in windows directory, make a secure copy, then simply delete them at the same time, and windows will be unable to respawn them.
