Optimize game performance/resolution

Use dgVoodoo 2^{[citation needed]}

Download dgVoodoo 2.
Extract dgVoodooSetup.exe and the following files from the MS subfolder: d3dImm.dll and ddraw.dll to <path-to-game>.
Launch dgVoodooSetup.exe and click on the DirectX tab; make sure that the Video Card is on "dgVoodoo2 Virtual 3D Card". Click Apply and then OK.
Then open the 3DCube.ini file with a text editor and edit the following lines:
1. Resolution=XXXXxYYYYx8, where XXXX and YYYY are the width and height, respectively.
2. FullPosition=0,0,XXXX,YYYY, where XXXX and YYYY are the width and height, respectively..

For example: {Resolution=1680x1050x8} instead of: {Resolution=320x280x8}. Then change the FullPosition varible. Example: {FullPosition=0,0,1680,1050} instead of {FullPosition=0,0,640,480}. Note: If Cube Hopper becomes less than desired playability (ex: shuddering/tearing of screen), then the resolution will have to be lowered. May have to experiment to achieve desired performance/visual ratio.
