Download from SHP - nGlide092_setup.exe (EXE File).nGlide translates all Glide callings to Direct3D, which is supported by almost all today's graphics cards.

Both versions of Glide API are supported, Glide2 (glide2x.dll) and Glide3 Library, so you don't need to have a 3Dfx Voodoo card to play games written for Glide API.

nGlide - nGlide is a 3Dfx Voodoo Glide wrapper which means it 'emulates' 3Dfx Glide.

Now you can run King's Quest Mask of Eternity at 800圆00 TheyĪllow you to get the higher resolutions out of the old 3-D (GLIDE) games that supported these cards. Glide Wrappers are software that emulate the old 3-D accelerator cards (dgVoodoo and Glidos for DOS games, and OpenGLide, eVoodoo and some others for Windows games). They have no native glide support, but there are some Glide Wrappers or emulators. Now its all DirectX with some games also supporting OpenGL, as modern graphics cards can handle any DirectX and OpenGL game, but do not support older games requiring theģDfx hardware/APIs. Later, nVidia bought 3Dfx, so only 3Dfx and nVidia cards had glide drivers, but nVidia eventually dropped the glide APIs. Documents at the time stated that Glide was a stripped down version of OpenGL and that's why QuakeGL engines ranįaster on 3Dfx cards using the miniGL driver. By the mid to late 90's theįirst games supporting DirectX and OpenGL started to appear. However, any hardware manufacturer could write drivers with full Direct X and OpenGL support, so those two APIs were more widely used than 3Dfx. You wanted to play that games you had to buy a 3Dfx card. Back then, 3Dfx used that to their advantage - the SDK was free so any company could make glide games, but if Program a driver that supports glide for a given card. Glide was a proprietary API, so only those who had the permission of 3Dfx could Early hardware accelerated games supported 3Dfx and gave the best visuals and performance.
