Quake 1 GOG support 3DFX or not?
Posted November 02, 2017
Technically, yes it does. GLQuake was designed for GL graphics cards (it also supported MiniGL/Glide). Though you'd be better off NOT using nGlide as now our computers are fast enough for higher resolutions (Download GLQuake 0.98 beta for FOV changing on 16:9) and nGlide, like 3DFx, does not support 32-bit color, which CAN cause issues on modern systems.
My recommended setup.
GLQuake 0.98.
Launch options -bpp 32 -width (your screen res) -height (your screen res)

nGlide actually forces 32 bit, despite the game having 16 bit mode selected.

There are far better options than GLQuake, as GLQuake doesn't support overbrights or fullbrights and has weaker coloured lighting effects than the software version. I use Quakespasm. I used to use DarkPlaces, and it does look very pretty, but it changes the game a little too much (and I've heard a number of cases of it crashing recently).

Quakespasm is the best authentic view and feel of Quake, it's based on FitzQuake which in turn based on GLQuake. So yeah i definitely recommend to use it for best experience with parameter "gl_texturemode GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR" in autoxec.cfg and you absolutely have to try Arcane Dimensions by SimonOC (runs only on Quakespasm due to several game breaking limits)
