DxWnd is described as 'Windows hooker - intercepts system calls to make fullscreen programs running in a window, to support a better compatibility, to enhance video modes and to stretch timing. It is tipically very useful to run old windows games' and is an app in the gaming software category. There are seven alternatives to DxWnd for Windows. The best DxWnd alternative is 7-max, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like DxWnd are D3DWindower, 3D Analyze, 3D Ripper DX and WinExplorer.
WARNING: 7-max can be unstable for some systems or programs. If you are not ready to take risks, don't install 7-max and don't use it.
With the help of 3DA you can change different graphic options under DirectX 8 and OpenGL. 3DA changes different CAP-bits for example, if a game requires HW T&L 3DA emulates these bits and the games runs on graphic boards which don't have HW T&L capabilities.
With 3D Ripper DX you can:
For every window in the hierarchy, you can view its properties, like handle, class name, caption, size, position and more. You can also modify some properties, like Caption and Visible/Enabled.
DirectX OpenGL Wrapper emulates API calls thru OpenGL commands and other platform specific commands in order to run DirectX 8 application running on other platform than Windows.
It implements and emulates the 3dfx Voodoo cards' native Glide2 and Glide3 APIs on top of OpenGL
