I am already using that after you recommended it to me from the other thread, it DOESNT WORK ON THE GM GAMES!

Check the directory in which the game is installed. Perhaps there is an error log (mostly called error.log) which has more details. (Which we need since we don't have access to your computer)

It would also help to know what "Gamemaker Games" you're exactly talking about in terms of titles (never heard of them before).

Well, the Documentation states a DirectX8 compatible Video, that would explain that there are possibly unsolvable Problems with 3dfx cards.

The SFFT Drivers and/or 3D Analyzer might be the best shot, at least worth a try.

3dfx boards are really becoming incompatible with all those new standards (and even old standards, because 3dfx is even older!). It's like having an old radio in a new car, pretty unlikely that it's even gonna fit.

Anyway, go on with this topic!

;D

well you could make that radio fit by mak'n a Modification ;)
well maby the newest MesaFX OpenGL32.dll would help if those games have OpenGL rendering :)

here the newest MesaFX OpenGL32.dll, aka:

MesaFX V0 6.2.0.2
