Re: Drive bay extinction in cases, PC chassis, accelerating ???

in Milliways
I run(for how many years of using it) a win98 machine with no cd drive or bulky hdd. Just no need, for a 98ish era machine. Havent missed it once. All installs through usb, every game so far with cd music works with a virtual drive or local files. For a modern machine, just no reason, better to make …

Re: When did Unreal Tournament multiplayer get so "difficult"?

in Milliways
I play it every once in a while. It just depends on which server you join. You can get "casual" players, where matches wont be so intense. If I tryhard I tend to win those, my skill is fine, but nothing amazing. If you go a server with rankings, where people have mastered the game, you gonna get …

A bit louder than 10mm talls, so ... Think the main benefit is their distance from the heatsinks, so they …

Re: Voodoo 4/5 DVI maximum resolution in 2D mode

Their timings are off for 1920x1080 and digital out. Their timings table is read from the registry. "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\Display\0000\TIMINGS\" For 1080p@60hz, one that works, is: @ = "2048,1960,1992,1232,1141,1144,4,151390000,6000,8,30668" Not sure if its " …

Re: Radeon 8500LE vs 8500

Well polygon count became less problematic with increasing gpu power. So you can afford to start with a high-quality model, dynamic lod systems(what nanite is, but not the only one) can help with reducing count when camera is further or off-focus, without preparing different lod meshes manually. So …

Re: The Changeling 3dfx Voodoo 5 5500

Thanks, agree its a nice-to-have thing on win98. Now if only there was a way to double the performance, bother Anthony to stop fucking around and make digital out on a 6k series a reality 😁 Filename glide0000.png File size 665.91 KiB Views 848 views
