Quote:Do you remember, how the Reid x3dfx 1.07.00 drivers were rated back then? You highlight them as recommended in your driver table (for Win9x). And you state "...based on the last official 3dfx DirectX Beta Core". As this is not being said about 1.08.04b, I suppose it does already have an overworked DirectX core. Is that correct? Thanks.

That's a very long time ago, but if memory serves me well, the x3dfx 1.07.00 introduced their Driver series to the public with great success, competed only by OmegaDriver's Releases.
I actually don't remember why I put that note (technically, it would mean that these VSA-100 DirectX Cores are using the Voodoo3 DX8 Beta core, which seems odd today - but I remember this actually worked in this direction, not the way around)
None of these x3dfx Drivers had an actually rewritten core, they were still limited to usage and max. exploitation of existing Cores at that time.
The OpenGL Core was 'touched' but to no real effect - 3dHQ later also claimed to have a reworked OpenGL core in the works but it never came from them...
I have a copy of an old Source Package floating somewhere on my HD as well, but from what I heard it is only one of several existing (supposedly it's the oldest one and became obsolete after the finding of a more recent one)
