Help needed!

Yes, we upgraded our old Windows 98 to Windows XP. So, I downloaded Project 64 to my computer, and downloaded the Glide 64. But when I test it, it did not work. There did come some type of graphics error... I have Direct X 9. Help me.

Make sure you have the Glide wrapper set up correctly (i.e. the wrapper is in the PJ64 folder).

Thanks!

I hope it will work... Thanks! =]

New help needed...

There did come an error message: Your video card doesn't support GL_ARB_texture_combine extension. What does this mean???

If you have a 3DFX card (as your profile indicates) you don't need a wrapper. As to your original problem, you'll have to be more specific...

Eh... I tried this with 1964... Same problem comes again... So why is this? And what do you mean, "to be more specific?" I've tried everything...

If you are using the Voodoo 3, you need some decent 3Dfx drivers that work under Windows XP. You can find many decent unofficial drivers that are XP-compatible at http://www.voodoofiles.com/

Other users may be able to recommend some specific sets for you to try. Once you find decent drivers, the Glide64 plugin is definitely your best option.

You do not need to use a wrapper if you are using the Voodoo 3. The error you are getting is to do with the Voodoo card not supporting certain OpenGL extensions required by the wrapper. If you just use Glide64, you won't get these errors.

Anything of them can't be downloaded... I hope I will get that Amigamerlins driver...

Oops, I forgot to say: I was using the Glide64 plugin in 1964...

I have new problem again... It can't use Glide64 without that file called "Glide3x.dll". Is this a wrapper?

Yes. It's a modified Glide library that's compatible with cards that don't support Glide as is (yeah, any card except the Voodoo line of cards).

Perfect! I found one driver! Now my Project 64 works... Thanks for everybody for helping!!!
