I can't wait until I get my new hard drive to try this out. Then I'll have room for all this stuff. Anyway, has anyone with a Game Wizard equiped iMac and OS X tried to run Quake 3 for the PB. The reason I ask is due to the specs for OMNI's version of Quake 3 for OS X Server. It says it requires OS X Server (of course) and a Voodoo 2 card. Well, as we all know the only Voodoo 2 available for the Mac was a Game Wizard. This card also needs proprietary drivers/extensions to work, and these drivers only run on classic. Get my drift. OMNI got Q3 to run on OS X Server without the drivers. What I'm hoping is that this code got passed on to the OS X PB version so that you can use a Game Wizard with Quake on OS X. Can someone try this out?

Do the iMac GameWizard drivers run in Classic? I tried UT from OS Xb in Classic and it went right into software mode.

No. They dont work. I have a vague memory of answering this EXACT same question from the exact same person before.... maybe at another board.

That was a rhetorical question.
