I just tried, and as you guested, it has not change the effect. Just one more detail : The background on the ring menu is black, event if I am with the original .ovl file (not the "nonLFBRead" one). It does sound rather like a broken OpenGL implementation. A look at the OpenGLid.log file might tell …

Try going into the ring menu, select the sun glasses and turn mipmapping off. This used to solve exactly the problem you describe, but since then I have fixed the bug that was the root cause, so probably it wont help.

I tried taking out the calls that increase the process priority for the actual game, and several people complained that the sound then broke up. I've made it now so that at least the priority is throttled back when no graphics commands are being issued and the game is waiting in a busy loop for a …

nopri.zip was the one. I just can't think what can be causing this. I'd have thought a problem with the S3 drivers, but others have had it work. I'm running out of ideas.

Hey, amazingly you say that in English as "Give them an inch and they'll take a mile". I prefer your version though. Where are you from?

Ah, one thing I forgot: there are loads of old versions of Glidos on my site. If you look at the link for v1.24 and edit the 24 to be other numbers you can try out older versions.

The funny thing is, if I had really thought this bloke was 9, I would have probably given him a free code. But I was 90% sure he was exactly the person we now see that he is. I can understand someone having a go at tricking a code out of me, but I don't understand why he is so angry that it didn't …

Which drivers for the Geforce 4? Have you tried any of the other files mentioned in this thread? Don't use compatibility modes. That's for old programs, and Glidos isn't an old program. Of course TR1 is an old program, but compatibility modes don't help DOS programs. You could try taking the " …

Thanks. I'm trying to make some 3d looking placks with 3d looking pipes joingin them. I've been messing with a unix based ray tracer called Moonlight. I think it can do the job, but the UI is making me swear a lot.

It may be worth looking at this thread: showthread.php?s=&threadid=1444 There'a an attachment to one of my posts that might help you. On the other hand, new S3 drivers might solve all your problems.

Almost certainly the problem is the OpenGL support for the S3 graphics. If you can find more recent drivers, that has to be worth a go. One other thing worth a try. Go to the Red Baron page of the glidos web site and download the version of OpenGlide from there. Try dropping the file Glide2x.dll …
