I'd read that thread, but I'd hoped things had changed since then. Thanks for responding, though!

With how ubiquitous OpenTTD is these days, I think a post in your YouTube channel's Community tab clarifying why you find it to be legally-dubious is in order. I mean, I understand why you feel that way - unlike with, say, Daggerfall Unity, even without the original files (or the open-source …
Advent Rising - getting "full" shadows working with Advent Revising and dgVoodoo2 2.74?
Posted on 2021-04-24, 15:53
As a follow-up to all the various "broken shadows in Advent Rising" threads, recently a fairly-popular YouTuber put a spotlight on the game ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUk3_3eBD_M ), also noting the broken shadows and how they, supposedly, only work properly on a specific ATi GPU. What I …

Hello! found that Z.A.R game d3d version can't work with dgVoodoo it says "Z.A.R. Error 3D hardware NOT found." without it can be played in Direct3D using 800x600x32 resolution mode. Am I missing something?: ZAR_D3D 2020-02-10 01-12-38-01.jpg Resolution forcing, MSAA and AF seem to work too. This …

From the blog: What can you do with the code? Make the move to D3D12 more quickly. Leverage the D3D12 Translation Layer library as-is in your game to port your existing work to D3D12 faster. ???? Why would replacing a DX11 layer with a DX11->12 wrapper be useful? I don't get it. It's basically the …

That, indeed, fixed the problem. Thanks, Dege! 😊
Xanadu Next (GOG) cannot initialize D3D with WIP67
Posted on 2019-11-19, 16:17
As the title says, the GOG version of Xanadu Next, which uses DirectX 8.x, cannot initialize D3D when using dgVoodoo2 WIP67. Attached is the debug log as well as the settings I have set up in the game's external options application. I am running Windows 10 v1909 and using the notebook variant of the …

About DX9 games using POM/parallax map effects on some surfaces (TimeShift, Crysis, Gothic 4: Arcania, etc).....it would be awesome if dgVoodoo2 can force the AF on those surfaces. Normally it's impossible without tweaking the shaders (Crysis got some POM tweaks via mod to enable the AF effective …

Quick question - G-Police crashes if you task switch (so if it loses focus, when you switch back to it it crashes). Can DgVoodoo prevent that at all? Could it hide the task switch from the game, and force the game to keep running as if it had focus? Thanks The only thing I can think of is running …
Re: Possible to enumerate resolution with non-existent refresh rate?
Posted on 2019-03-21, 20:39
Sorry for not clarifying sooner, ZellSF. Life has gotten in the way for the past couple of days. As to your actual question, the reason I'm trying for more than 60 FPS is because of this ReShade shader I like to use. In my experience, it requires 300 FPS minimum to get a low-quality, but IMO …
Re: Possible to enumerate resolution with non-existent refresh rate?
Posted on 2019-03-20, 18:58
Um. Why do you want to do this? Darkstone will output more than 60 FPS just fine, how unique those frames are is another matter entirely of course. I don't know why, but even with my NVIDIA Optimus setup set to fully disable vsync, the game will only output 60 FPS. This is an in-game cap as far as …
Possible to enumerate resolution with non-existent refresh rate?
Posted on 2019-03-11, 17:54
Before I go exploding my computer and/or dgVoodoo2, is it possible to enumerate a resolution with a fake refresh rate for those games where v-sync is forced - even after GPU game profile tweaks? For example, I want to see if Darkstone, which seems locked to 60FPS, is actually capped at 60FPS or …

Oxenfree (x64, DX9) Using WIP58 x64, only renders menus unless anti-aliasing is forced in config file. With anti-aliasing forced, all screen elements use bloom effect, including GUI and message prompts. This does not happen natively. How can that be? It works perfectly for me. Do you get the same …

Edit: Which version am I even supposed to use, x86 or x64, does that depend on the game itself or the OS ? It depends on the game and OS. If you're using a 64-bit OS, and the DX9 game you want to play is also 64-bit, then obviously you'll want to use the x64 DX9 DLL. Otherwise, stick with the …

Ambient occlusion is still messed up in Lego BATMAN: The Official Video Game using WIP58 x86, though to be fair I did report it literally an hour before WIP58 was released.... 🤣

Lego BATMAN: The Official Video Game (DX9) Works wonderfully with WIP57. It actually restores effects, such as bloom and DOF, which no longer work on my Win10 Home v1809 laptop with NVIDIA GTX 1060 Optimus graphics. However, the built-in ambient occlusion seems broken (see attachment), the game …

Could you provide x64 DLLs? You mean x64 version of D3D9? Or maybe all of the DX dlls for purposes like redirecting DX from a virtual machine to their host x64 counterparts? (Like Kjliew does it with Glide in QEmu?) He means providing dgVoodoo 2 D3D9 DLLs compatible with 64-bit games (64-bit …

Shadowrun Returns: Dragonfall - Director's Cut (Steam) Works flawlessly without AA enabled in-game; otherwise, freezes when attempting to load a scene (see attachment) with 2 GB RAM for the virtual 3D card. EDIT: Forcing AA via dgVoodoo2 config file seems to do nothing.
