Re: MiG Alley

...give Wined3d a try. It's 3 files that drop into the game folder. MA runs on Win 10 for me without the cockpit tearing of the other solutions. The menus are off center but everything functions fine. I tried using the 3 dll file (wined3d, winelib and ddraw) but it crashed to desktop. Tried using …

I am trying to get this one working on Win 10. Was able to install the V1.1 from CD. Also copied the 3 dll files on to the installation directory. The game starts. However, on entering the game, getting an error "The game requires a minimum desktop resolution of 800x600....". Tried different …

There are a lot of forks and tributaries in this thread, but I have MA running nicely on Wine. I just added the 3 Wine files (ddrawl.dll, libwine.dll, wined3d.dll) into my v123 bdg085f installation and the game runs smootly without the graphic tears and/or CTDs that plagued me before. My system; W10 …

Cool. I never advanced far enough so I'm sticking with vanilla F18 for now - without the TSH realism mods. As it turns out I actually prefer the stock graphics to the hi-res TSH upgrades, and this suits my more casual involvement just fine. This, WW2 Fighters and Longbow 2 are really pretty awesome …

Re: Jane's F/A-18, I have v101f running under W10 using the "dxwnd" utility and setting the shortcut to W7 compatibility. nVidia GTX video card. Currently menus run in a box but flight is normal. I think there was a setting for fullscreen menus but I don't have it handy.

Hey everyone, thanks to all involved in making this possible!... This is great - wine seems to have done the trick. I copied over the dbg v085f install and dropped in the 3 files you linked to. The old girl fires up nicely and without the graphic tears in the cockpit I had before. Excellent! I …

I may havet to give PCEM a try given the success with MA. The installation proceedure was daunting which is why I shied away in the past. But that makes me laugh given all the hours spent installing and tweaking real W95/98 retro installs over the years...

Having just finished tinkering with my own "Build 2 equivilent" the only thing I'd consider is bumping the Voodoo1 up to a Voodoo2 if you have the part. The P3-600/V2 will make good work of 800x600 games of this "mid era" something the V1 will struggle with. Of course the V1 will provide you with …

firage wrote on 2020-08-15, 11:55: Actually in the 4X FSAA case, at any resolution, it's showing no scaling or a mere +0.57% going from 733MHz to 1400MHz. 2xFSAA is similarly stuck except for the lowest resolution, which is probably what you're concerned with here. I stand corrected - it's 640x480 …

Voodoo5 @ 64ox480 FSAA 4x: scaling study?

Posted on 2020-08-14, 21:07

Can anyone point me to a CPU scaling study for the V5 with FSAA max'ed out at 640x480 resolution? I'm familar with this one from a few years back: http://nightstormer.tripod.com/voodoo_article6.htm All resolutions higher than 640 cap out on the test rig but at 640x480 FSAA 4x frames are still rising …

I took a shot at this and have it running on W10. Using a NoCD exe in case that makes a difference, but I have a disk and iso to check. dgVoodoo2 v554; default settings except DX AF/AA max and resolution set to my desktop Run game config w/ admin and set to Secondary D3D graphics Set game exe …

Actually I found the hacked wod.exe on that site yesterday after checking this thread and the recent WOD chatter over at dxwnd. And and by jove it works! I'm using it on a W95osr2 build even - not emulation -and it solves the setting menu issue. Can finally set the cards, resolution and play with …

hi! - i just saw this thread, having asked about the game myself just now - silly me i thought it such an obscure game that noone else would ever be trying to get it working. I also cant run it on windows 10 - i get the animation format error at the start and that is a fatal exception error. I wish …
