All above work with Direct3D. So glide is not needed here.

Zeus, I was wandering if as a side effects of checking glide games maybe you made notes of whether a software/Direct 3D version was available. So if a list of Direct 3D and/or software games appeared. dgvoodoo2 supports d3d (and also dosbox with built-in voodoo card emu) so such a list might have some use i guess.

I'm making 2 more lists. Supported resolutions (with Voodoo2 SLI) and supported renderers.
Current progress: 62/335, 18,51%. Maybe I will finish both lists in 2020...

Problems:
1) There is no easy way to detect the d3d usage in dx2 - dx7.
2) This work is so... boring and unpleasant.

>1) There is no easy way to detect the d3d usage in dx2 - dx7.

dgvoodoo2 works with dx1-9c and it has a watermark

>2) This work is so... boring and unpleasant.

dgvoodoo2 allows setting any resolution you want, adds anisotropic x16 filtering so distant textures are clear, adds antialiasing x8
