That is something! dgVoodoo rules :)))
Sorry, Paul Gardiner, your Glidos still chooses wrong tracks in the restored Tomb Raider.

:I managed to run 'restored' TR1 (with all original 50 PS tracks) under Vista.
Get real. What Paul has acomplished is VooDoo 3Dfx without the 3dfx video board installed.
Which back in the day 3dfx ruled. Now every Tomb Raider today can enjoy what we all saw in
1992.
most likely without the "I managed" part.

I think you do not understand:
1) Up to Vista we had dgVoodoo for glide-powered games, that worked perfectly.
2) Then Vista had came and dgVoodoo stopped to work, and Dege made it clear he lost interest to support
his program further. Ok - it is free it is up to him.
3) I checked Glidos (under Vista) - very well it worked.
4) Then someone (unfortunately I forgot, but Google can reveal his name at no time) hacked TR1 program for it
can use all the original 50 PlayStation audio tracks (PC version was 'dumbed down' to 9 tracks, as you most surely know)
5) I burned CD with the hacked version and all 50 tracks. Checked Glidos - oops, it chosed wrong tracks. And dgVoodoo
didn't work under Vista - bummer! (Under WinMe that CD worked no prob with dgVoodoo).
6)Then Dege cleared how to make his program to work under Vista. But I was not able to do it - bummer.
7)Then I thought :)) that probably I messed my TR1 installation with all those programs, and DosBox special builds as well.
So I deleted my TR1 folder and recreated it along with Dege instructions. And - voila - after year of my torments I have now
under Vista original (PS) Tomb Raider in all its glory - and that is something.
8) You can, of course, enjoy female Prince of Persia variant to your heart.
9) Crystal Dynamix - sucks! :)))

Why would you want to burn a CD with the original tracks? If you are using
Glidos, you just install the sound pack to the hard drive. Mine seems to
work perfectly (Vista Ultimate 32-bit), with all tracks playing correctly.

because MP3 option worked wrong (as it turned out CD audio worked wrong as well)

vanilla PC version (with 9 tracks) worked (under Glidos) ok here too, but not "hacked" one.
dgVoodoo plays "hacked" tr1 no problem (WinMe, or VHP), Glidos does not.

Loads of people have the MP3 otpion working correctly. I remember there
was a way to mess up the install if you weren't careful - can't remember
the details now. Certainly if you just install using the archives
from the Glidos site, everything just works.
