I've heard there are drivers for the GeForce that allow you to emulate a 3DFX card? Is this true? Where do you get them? I was just wondering if there is a way to play the older 3D games using such drivers. If not, I can always slap in my old Voodoo2 alongside my Geforce just to get the enjoyment of the older games...
Glide drivers for the GeForce?

If you already have a Voodoo2, why would you want to use the Glide wrapper? You'll get much faster performance from the Voodoo2, since everything's being done in hardware and not through software emulation.
If you have the slot to spare, go with the Voodoo2 if you want Glide.

The wrapper is more for compatibility than for performance. If you already have something that will run Glide in hardware, and you have the available resources to use that hardware, why would you want to run something in software?
