Audio Lag in Half-Life (Audigy LS SB0310)

I recently set up my Voodoo2 SLI configuration in a new machine, and so far it's been running everything great. I'm only experiencing sound issues in one game: Half-Life (specifically the demo game Half-Life: Uplink). Other games that run fine include Unreal, Need for Speed 3, Diablo II, and a …

Re: The gamer cookbook

Well, in the Path of the Shell expansion for Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, there is an easter egg which gives the recipe for "D'nied Eggs", D'ni being the name of an ancient city/culture in the Myst lore.

Re: My kick around Thief box

I know exactly what you mean. While working on my various builds like my Voodoo2 SLI and my Voodoo1 machines, I took the old family Gateway mini-tower, with its 1.1GHz Celeron, and tossed in my Voodoo3 2000 PCI and a spare Sound Blaster Live. It's easy to move around and work on with the small …

Re: W.I.P Slot 1 rig!

Nice rig, hopefully you get that poltergeist figured out! I actually like that case a lot; my "extra" 3Dfx rig is in the micro-ATX version of that, with a 1.1GHz Coppermine Celeron, a Voodoo3 2000 and a Sound Blaster Live. Really easy to work in; some other OEM cases that are supposedly toolless are …

Re: YouTube's Seriously Awful New Change

That's pretty shit. Youtube's a useful resource because its the video site with the most resources and the greatest ability to host so many videos.... but with that said, it, especially its UI, has been getting worse and worse for ages. How about the change that made it so that I have to click the …

Re: Modern PC cases

Silverstone, Fractal Design, and Lian Li all make what I consider very elegant and subtle case designs. Corsair makes some nice ones too. I don't think you'll go wrong with either of the cases you've picked out, they both have good modern convenience features and pretty good reviews. Really anything …

Re: win98/2k build engine pc

^ And I think that machine should be perfect for build engine games. I use a Pentium MMX 200MHz with a Matrox Mystique 220 and it runs Duke3d like a dream. Would also be nice for early Windows and Glide games with that Monster 3d II.

Re: Nascar Racing 2 - DOS Glide

Yeah it does seem strange, especially that the one that ended up working for me was for another manufacturer. Perhaps some strange quirk with my particular hardware config made it pickier than most. At any rate it seems to work well now, I'll keep playing around with it. One note, I did not get …

Re: check out my WANG!

Wow that's a great little machine. The 386 I built has pretty much the exact same configuration: 386DX-25, Cyrix 387 Fasmath, 8MB RAM, Sound Blaster Pro 2.0, 1MB Tseng ET4000. I would almost suggest going ahead and swapping the CD drive for a 5.25" floppy drive; since it has a network card and …

Re: Nascar Racing 2 - DOS Glide

Well I have it configured so that Windows keeps a separate autoexec.bat and config.sys for booting into DOS mode, so DOS should be completely unaffected by whatever the windows drivers do. Though what you mention could definitely be making it behave poorly in Windows mode. To answer your question …

Re: Nascar Racing 2 - DOS Glide

Hmm, I've got a copy of glide2x.ovl in each of the game directories; I took it from the latest official Diamond Monster 3D drivers for win9x, so I imagine that should be the most appropriate driver I could use. I downloaded that SDK test package and have been running the numbered tests in the SDK\ …
