That's all for now... if your Banshee card model is not included in this list, please send me/post the SubVendorID value, and I'll to upload the correct file.
Regards.

The "Creative MiniGL" is the interface that allows the Banshee (and Voodoo2), to display 512x512 textures in Quake3. It passes the texturesize limit of 256x256.
However, expect it to be good only for snapshots, not for playing, as the fps can get get sometimes below 3fps in 1024x768 resolutions...

There is a big difference in the quality, but frankly, the hack on the Creative MiniGL is by far older...
Actually, every card designed by Creative can use the same drivers as the other cards. The only difference is been done by the checking of some "Vendor" strings, and perhaps a checksum. Otherwise, in real terms, the cards make by Creative are perhaps 5% faster than the rest. But in the case of Banshee the 5% advantage was of the Gigabyte GA-630 card... So not every time, Creative is that important...
