Papyrus:  Another One Bites the Dust

The Papyrus home page (http://www.papy.com) is no more.  If you use this address, you now get linked to the Vivendi Universal home page (http://www.vugames.com/). ; When NASCAR Racing 2003 was released, it was announced that that game would be the last in the NASCAR Racing series, and apparently the plug has finally been pulled.

In addition to the NASCAR Racing series (several of which supported Glide), Papyrus also gave us the Glide titles NASCAR Legends and Grand Prix Legends as well as the Indy Car Racing Series.

Although the Papyrus site had not been updated recently, it did contain patches and updates for all of the Papyrus games back to about 1998.

Thanks to the Papy folks for a lot of great memories!

I never took notice of the NASCAR series to be honest, but which games of the series supported Glide?

I don't own a copy of NASCAR Racing 2, but if you go to 3dgamers.com, you will see that there are 3dfx patches for the game which suggest that it PROBABLY has Glide support.

NASCAR Racing 1999, NASCAR Racing 3, and the NASCAR Racing 3 expansion pack (NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series) do support Glide.

NASCAR Racing 4 does not support Glide, but it does support OpenGL.

I am posting some notes on each of the games that I do own in the Games section for those who are interested.

Your question highlights the need for an accurate and comprehensive list of Glide games.
