Not possible as far as i can tell...

I could never get it to work correctly with my V3 (although I haven't tried
it on my V5, but I  imagine it's the same).  The weird part was that
SOMETIMES it would just work and then stop working during dialogue or after
a screen change.  Very frustrating and the main reason I never really could
play the game.  It's a real shame, because what I did play was very good...

Maybe someday I'll load it on my old machine with the Voodoo1 in it.  The
game was really designed for the early Voodoos anyway...
