Hi,
I installed Macglide 0.13. If I try to launch TombRaider or TombRaider-SetUp I get the following error message from the Finder:
"MacGLide has encountered an unrecoverable error and can not continue.
Excuse:
Could NOT allocate sufficent memmory for buffer ... Sorry."
My hardware was a Powerac G5, OS 10.4.11, R9800 and 5GB Ram.
So enough memory ... but perhaps too much as...

I think it is high time to praise the image and render quality obtained with Macglide.
The 0.13 release has really deserved its name "Tomb Raider Special Edition". With all bells and whistles on (with a Radeon 9800 and AnisotropylLevel=16, FullSceneAntiAliasing=4) I get an fantastic and smooth running picture at full screen resolution (Resolution=1280) while playing TR1.
I can n.

The "created date" is when the software was created not the date you installed it.
You don't need the log file. It will be created as soon you use MacGlide. It shows you details of the last usages of MacGlide.
MacGlide will be used automatically if needed.
With TR1 it will be used as soon as you choose 3DFX as renderer in the Tomb Raider Settings (of Tomb Raider, not Macglide).

The file "3DfxGlideLib2.x" should be installed in the "System Extensions" folder in the "System Folder" (the one that contains OS9, not the "System" folder that contains the OS X stuff).
If you hit Apple-I to get the info about "3DfxGlideLib2.x" you see among others the version number.
In the "Preferences" folder in the...

One other substantial difference between my G5 and the ibook , is the size of the boot disk which is much bigger than 128GB for the G5.

I am not able to install Macglide 0.13a1 on my G5 OS 10.4.7(German). After starting the installer I get an error message that says that no valable Systemfolder is found on the targeted volume (error code: 1008:1,-43). No log-file is produced.
But on my iBook G4 the installer runs fine. Same system, almost identical software installed!
As there are two install problems reported in the bug...

There is a two-pixel-wide grid of disturbing horizontal and vertical lines
in the main menu of TR2. The lines are colored with some correlation to
the neighboring pattern (look at the attached screenshot with appropriate
magnification - as jpeg due to size restrictions).
These lines appear only when the resolution is above 640x480.
The same grid appears on the screens that are...

If the resolution is set above 640x480 there are bright (or white?) fine
lines in the background pattern of e.g. the main menu. Also in the game,
in the scenario, these gaps can be seen sometimes. Here they appear and
disappear on different positions as you move Lara. The gaps seem always
be on the boundaries of the filled shapes.
In the attached screenshot there are two such gaps...

All movies in Tomb Raider I that appear within the game as well as the
movie played before a new game and before the training level have a
white screen surrounding the movie. If "Skip Lines" is checked also the
skipped lines are white (see attached screenshot).
The intro movies (played before the main menu appears) are black framed
as they should be.
This problem appeared with...
