This is a fork of QEMU-3dfx for Arch Linux or any OS with pacman command and tries to add more documentation. (and binaries)

For more info. Refer to the original repo.

Witness, experience and share your thoughts on modern CPU/GPU prowess for retro Windows games on Apple Silicon macOS, Windows 10/11 and modern Linux. Most games can be installed and played in pristine condition without the hassle of hunting down unofficial, fan-made patches to play them on Windows 10/later or modern Linux/Wine. And now it's updated for rolling release and added some tools and libraries I copied on the internet to make the experience better (as long i have free time).

There are two ways to build this repo. While this is repo is used for Arch Linux, It can also build on other OS like Windows 10 with MSYS2 too.

This way is simple. Just download the PKGBUILD from GitHub. (Arch-Based distributions)

mkdir ~/myqemu && cd ~/myqemu
git clone https://github.com/kharovtobi/qemu-3dfx-arch.git
cd qemu-3dfx-arch/packages/qemu-3dfx
makepkg -si

• This defaults to making kjliew's repository.
• This script builds it for you to install into your system.
• Chroot is recommended! For more details, Go to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

This way is basically the same, But less tedious and compiles only the essentials and installs to a folder making it much faster. (Any operating systems)

Simple guide to apply the patch: (using 00-qemu110x-mesa-glide.patch)

mkdir ~/myqemu && cd ~/myqemu
git clone https://github.com/kharovtobi/qemu-3dfx-arch.git
cd qemu-3dfx-arch
wget https://download.qemu.org/qemu-10.1.0.tar.xz
tar xf qemu-10.1.0.tar.xz
cd qemu-10.1.0
rsync -r ../qemu-0/hw/3dfx ../qemu-1/hw/mesa ./hw/
patch -p0 -i ../00-qemu110x-mesa-glide.patch
bash ../scripts/sign_commit
mkdir ../build && cd ../build
../qemu-10.1.0/configure --target-list=i386-softmmu --prefix=$(pwd)/../install_dir
make install

• This guide makes and installs binaries to install_dir
• You can also patch any versions in 10.1.x
• All patch hunks must be successful in order for the binary to run properly, or you may have BSOD when running Windows 98 for the first time and not work as intended.

This way adds VirGL patches for the binary (Windows and MacOS)

• Recommended for 8.2.x or 7.2.x only?
• Not Tested yet...
• If you compile the binary using patched VirGL package without patching it first will have an error. (reference)

Refer to Wrapper README for more info.
