How about War craft3(war3.exe -Glide)???

How about war3.exe -glide?
Somebody told If you use this,Voodoo will run faster than before?
Is that true?Could you tell me Why?

Well, I doubt it will work, but Glide is the native Voodoo API. So if it does work, WC3 would use Glide as the primary renderer, making optimal use of the Voodoo's rendering capabilities, thus being faster...

But the chances of WC3 working under Glide are slim to none...

"slim to none..."

The Warcraft 3 OpenGL renderer is very handy because it allows me to play the game in Linux :D

OpenGL isn't limited to NVidia cards. It does seem to run better on my system, but there are a few glitches.
