Describe the bug
In Lands of Lore 3, especially in 3dfx Glide mode, I have gray and black textures mainly from transparent textures and around NPCs. This error already exists in PCEM V17 and it is probably from the emulator, as I can play the game on a real system with Windows 98 SE and DirectX9c in Glide mode without any texture errors. The same graphics drivers were also used.

A similar Problem was in NGlide (3DFX Emulator), this would be fixed in Version 0.98

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Windows 98 Second Edition
  2. Install latest DirectX9c for Win98SE
  3. Install Voodoo2 latest Drivers 3.02.02 official Release
  4. Install Lands of Lore 3 and Patch it up to 1.07
  5. Now go to Gamesettings -> Graphicsettings on 3D Renderer use 3dfx/Glide : Voodoo 2
  6. Start Game and see the Bad Textures

Expected behavior
All textures should be displayed correctly in Glide Mode (Glide Mode is faster and have better Graphics in PCEM then D3D Mode)
