It replaces the glTexImage2D function to fix issues with S3TC textures. S3TC textures are now compressed using the Microsoft compressor and are passed to the ICD as compressed textures. The Microsoft compressor is much faster and looks much better than the 3dfx compressor. This also fixed the DXT5 issues that were effecting any games that used that texture format.\par Fixes:\par - Changed much of how GxpOGL works. It will now only work with the 761 ICD. Attempting to use it with other ICDs will cause nothing to be changed.\par \par \par 3dfxvbxp.inf\par \'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\'a8\par (For advanced users only).\par This file includes almost all the Windows XP registry settings to give at your Voodoo Banshee card, the best performance possible tested.
