Thanks to your hard work the new beta build 1.7.2 works on my new favorite opengl only card. The menu and cutscenes are in windows always but in game the fullscreen works and looks great. All units and objects show up behind bulidings which is kind of weird but its better than it was in 1.7.1. All i would get is "No valid screen devices were found!" at the end of the error log. This card supports opengl up to version 2.0 and does have estensions that go further. The image quality on this card is AMAZING!, maby im imagining things but the image quality is much better than my gtx 480 in the next slot. This card cost about 2000$ new but i got mine on ebay for 100$. Thanks for making it ez to play my favorite old game on my favorite old graphics card! I'll happily answer any questions. How do you take screenshots i cant seem to get one on this renderer.
What extension am i missing that causes the buildings to do this?

Re: Myth 2 on "3DLABS WILDCAT REALIZM 800"
Hey psycotrip, welcome to the forums. That is quite an exotic video card! It's always gratifying to see our work bringing support to new platforms.
The fact that units and objects show up behind buildings suggests that depth testing is not functioning correctly. Does terrain also show up in the wrong order sometimes -- like seeing through hills? If so, depth testing may not be working at all. If it's just objects that would be a slightly different problem.
Taking screenshots -- I assume you are running on a Windows operating system? Depending on the video drivers, screenshots often do not work in Fullscreen mode. Screenshots are much more likely to work in windowed mode, though with such a unique card I can't guarantee anything ;)
We have a mechanism called poweruser.txt which can be used to set some low level options. It's possible that tweaking some of these may solve the depth test issues. To use poweruser.txt, you just create a text file with that name and stick it in your "preferences" folder. The syntax is the same syntax used in INI files. Here's an example file:
UseDepthTest and UseShaders seem the most relevant to the issues you described. Try playing around with various combinations of those and see if they will solve the problem.

Re: Myth 2 on "3DLABS WILDCAT REALIZM 800"
the disable shader command did work, but now the windmill on the first map does not have the wood on the spinning part, just the sails that float on nothing. the depth test command did nothing but make the buildings dissappear entirely. still i play without those commands because seeing units behind buildings is suprisingly useful. I cannot see the landscape textures behind buildings. I've never seen behind hills though. It's suprizingly playable and alot sharper than my 480 gtx for some reason, maby just the new build though. disable shader command did stop the objects from showing up behind buildings.
Yes its exotic, a good 3 inches longer than a gtx 285!
Suprisingly Quake 4 is very playable at 1280x1024.
Glide wrapper works great, so basically i can play most glide and opengl games. just not ANY D3D.

Re: Myth 2 on "3DLABS WILDCAT REALIZM 800"
I see, interesting. Were you able to get any screenshots? I'm kind of curious about the improved quality you mentioned.
