We've never seen any evidence of it containing malware, and yet as of today, Malwarebytes picks up the DLL files for this wrapper as Trojan.Bankers. I, along with several other people, use it to play old DirectX games on newer versions of Windows. That's it.DgVoodoo is a 3D wrapper for older games. From there in the "Graphics Renderer" box select 3Dfx and you're all set! Simply start the game, go to Options>Graphics. In case the game doesn't automatically switch to the 3Dfx wrapper then you have to do so manually. The reason to do the latter would be a better fps performance. You can either chose to keep it unforced and stick to the MTM2 in-game resolution or pick a lower MTM2 in-game resolution and upscale it using dgVoodoo. As before, the settings in the picture are the recommended one EXCEPT for the resolution setting. You can also use 4:3 resolutions like 1600x1200 without the need for upscaling if you so choose).įinally there's the DirectX menu. What dgVoodoo does is it takes a lower MTM2 ingame resolution and upscales it to a higher resolution that you have selected inside the program. For all others (4:3 resolutions), select what works best for you. If selecting a 16:9 or a 16:10 resolution then it is recommended to use the 856x480 3dfx resolution inside the game. Select whatever resolution you want the game to be upscaled at (or whatever resolution your desktop is at right now). Again I recommend keeping the settings as they are in the picture except for the Resolution.
Of course you are free to experiment with what works better for you.Ībove is the menu for 3dfx/Glide. The settings are pretty easy and I would recommend keeping them as in the picture. First you need to show dgVoodoo2 where MTM2 is installed (even though you put it in the same folder). The General menu can be seen in the above picture. The general menu and a menu for 3dfx and a menu for DirectX, depending on which you decide to use. Please note, it works with nGlide installed (they do not interfere with each other as dgVoodoo2 will take priority). You have succesfully installed dgVoodoo2. Next you just need to copy the dgVoodooCpl.exe file in the MTM2 folder and that's it. If you aren't sure which version to use or if you want to try and test both then just copy all the above mentioned. If you want to use DirectX then copy d3d8.dll, d3dimm.dll and ddraw.dll from inside the MS folder. If you want to use 3Dfx then copy glide.dll, glide2x.dll and glide3x.dll from inside the 3Dfx folder (leave the NAPALM folder alone).
zip file and you should have the following files.
zip file from the website above and save it to the folder of your chosing. The file is completely safe and it is officially used by GOG.com
Bottom line, it allows you to play MTM2 using modern day resolutions.ĭgVoodoo2 official website - ( download version 2.54 only, later versions break performance) Please ignore the antivirus/browser warnings.
What the program does is it translates all the Glide/DirectX calls to DirectX11.ĭgVoodoo2 only works with video cards that support DirectX11 or DirectX12 (most of the new video cards). Likewise it allows greater compatibility for old DirectX games with modern systems. All three API versions are supported, Glide 2.1 (glide.dll), Glide 2.4 (glide2x.dll) and Glide 3.0 (glide3x.dll). It allows you to play games designed for 3dfx Glide API without the need for having a 3dfx Voodoo graphics card.
