Has anyone ever gotten GLExcess to run properly on a Voodoo3? I've tried several different drivers (WinXP) and different opengl32.dll's. The demo either crashes, refuses to run, or has missing graphics. Am I wasting my time?

I use the Amigamerlin 1.6 for V3/4/5 (i am under Win98SE) there is a little bug at the run but this is not really awkward but you must have a sound card installed otherwise the demo doesn't run about your drivers, try the last Amigamerlin v2.5 WIn2K/XP V3/4/5 Nightbird
