-----------------------
1.  System Requirements
-----------------------

1)  Intel Pentium CPU, or 100% compatible.

2)  Sound Blaster sound card.

3)  TNT Graphics Accelerator.

4)  32 MB Memory (64 MB Recommended).

5)  DirectX 6.1 or later.

----------------------------
2.  Installation and Removal
----------------------------

This installation is not removable in any general sense.
Once DirectX is installed, it cannot be removed by any
straightforward method.  Since this program should not
be run on a system that already has Glide functionality,
there is no reason to un-install the added Glide
features -- they are doing no harm if they aren't being
used.

--------------------------------
3.  New Features In This Release
--------------------------------

1)  Linear Frame Buffer bug fixes.
2)  Color Key fixes.

-------------------
4.  Driver Features
-------------------

This driver intercepts Glide2X calls and translates them
to Direct3D calls. This driver takes full advantage of
the functionality of TNT based cards, including single-pass
multitexturing.

----------------------------------
5.  Known Issues With This Release
----------------------------------

2)  Depth buffering precision errors.  Because the 16-bit
    depth buffer formats of Voodoo and TNT based card are
    different, precision errors will occasionally occur.
  
3)  Bugs with NCC textures.  Textures that are NCC compressed
    will show up with the wrong colors.
