What is D2_3DFX?
D2_3DFX is the name given to the unofficial 3DFX-enhanced “patch” for Descent 2. It is not a patch so much as a replacement for the main Descent2.EXE. (Note: This does not mean you can just download the .EXE and play D2 for free.) This program gives you the ability to play Descent2 on your 3DFX-based video card or accelerator, taking advantage of its enhanced graphical capabilities and drastically improved speed and smoothness. D2_3DFX is commonly confused with D2VOODOO, which is the officially-supported 3DFX enhancement for D2. However, D2_3DFX, much better than D2VOODOO as it is, is not being supported by 3DFX, Interplay or Parallax Software. Please do not contact any of these companies in relation to D2_3DFX, as they will not give you an answer.
