Full design files (editable schematic & PCB, PDF schematic, GERBER files, BOM, P&P, PCI bracket dxf file, FPGA bitstream and mcs file) are attached below. The FPGA code will be uploaded after I cleanup the code a bit. If you use another flash device, generate a new mcs file from the bitstream.
Can this card or Voodoo 4440H run Diablo II: Lord of Destruction in 3dfx Glide mode correctly?
It should. I’ll test it soon.
I tested it in 86Box and with Voodoo Graphics (Obsidian+Amethyst) 12MB (2 TMUs) it won’t work (Quantum3D drivers) or have graphical bugs/glitches making it unplayable (other drivers) but with Voodoo Graphics 8MB (1 TMU) it works fine with no problems whatsoever. I wonder if it is the same with real hardware?
DII behaves the same way on real hardware on the 4440H. It works fine on the 4400H.
I’m also need same card by another reason: my old Intel DP67BG motherboard doesn’t has internal graphics, can’t boot without any video and don’t know how to operate with PCIE 4.0 from modern nVidia 3D-accelerators. The only one solution is a second videoadapter (needed only to show BIOS at start time), but for me a better choice is PCI with HDMI in one card. No one oldest cards i can found doesn’t has both these interfaces at once. But the Glide as a third option is a better choice. How to buy it?
I’m not selling it, but all production files (and more) are attached to this post.
