Maybe if someone figures out which microcode is which. And if there's 
projective multitexturing microcode in the drivers someone has to figure 
out how they want the vertex data. I had a look at a hexdump of the 
windows drivers once and it looked like the microcode may be slightly 
different than what we have.

I have no idea. It would be easy to test with projtex.

That's right. G200 can't do multitexturing at all. That's the reason why 
it has only one WARP, it doesn't really need two WARPs.
