Hi.
I have problems running NFS3 with glide wrapper on Windows 7. I Installed Voodoo3 patch (nfs3_update.zip). I tryed several wrappers but none of them worked. In 3dsetup there are only software render and Dire3D Device. I tryed to run the game with nfs3.exe -voodoo2, but see only black screen (game doesn't load even start menu).
Maybe anyone knows how to fix it?

Re: NFS3 with Voodoo Glide Wrapper on Windows 7
Yeah the old games can be problematic. I don't have Windows 7 so can't answer specifically, but as an alternative have you thought about running it in a virtual machine, like Microsoft Virtual PC?

Re: NFS3 with Voodoo Glide Wrapper on Windows 7

Re: NFS3 with Voodoo Glide Wrapper on Windows 7
I've tried also installing NFS3 on Windows 7 with the Voodoo3 patch using dgVoodoo and Glide Wrapper but none worked for me. I've got the same problem, the screen stay black.
Also I have tried the NFS3HP Vista Install but the resolution I get is 640x480 (z) and 800x600 and sometimes you'll see some gfx error or the game doesn't load when driving at night or in rain.

Re: NFS3 with Voodoo Glide Wrapper on Windows 7
In Direct3D mode I get game freezed when I use 800x600 resolution..
So.. I don't see the way to get high resolution on Windows 7.
BTW. Anyone tried NFS2SE with wrapper? I just want to start splitscreen racing.

This guy plays in great resolution on Windows 7 (x64)!
Check his video info for a tutorial how to install propely NFS3 with 3Dfx and dgVoodoo.
Tried this but I either can't start the game properly, it freezes after u start the game. Maybe my settings are incorrect for my system.
Let me know if this work guys on Windows 7.

Re: NFS3 with Voodoo Glide Wrapper on Windows 7
I downloaded mentioned archive (http://rapidshare.com/files/242757547/NFS3-Win7.zip) and made all steps of readme.txt.
Played with different settings in dgVoodooSetup.exe but game still crashes.
I think the only way is to try different variants of dgVoodooSetup sets.

Re: NFS3 with Voodoo Glide Wrapper on Windows 7
nGlide glide wrapper can run NFS3 in Windows 7. You must download wrapper and patch from compat list.
