Strange about windowed mode... unless you are using a 256 color desktop mode.
I find it choppy too. It is about the most detailed Glide game I've seen, and it has to keep downloading textures to encompass the constantly changing visible area. I think probably it is doing pretty well for going through a Glide wrapper.
Thanks for the clarification, Paul. In a way, I feel relieved 😉
As for the desktop depth, no, I'm using a 32 bits color mode. Tried in 16 bits and still got the software OGL fallback. The game works accelerated in fullscreen, so it's not a big deal 😉
Ok Kind of hijacking the thread, but I've got the opposite problem. Redguard is running a wee bit too fast for me. At full resolution/smoothing on.
Using WinXP Home
DX 9 & Detonators that are DX9 compatible
Geforce 3 (Vanilla)
SBLive 5.1
512mb
Athlon 1.4
(is this enough sys info?)
I run round like a man on angel dust & people are on the edge of being squeaky mice people.
Seems to automatically pick up my VDMsound install, but a bit crackly.
Never seen it run too fast. You could try increasing the value of ControlJudderFix in the glidos.ini file.

Very strange. I've never seen that before. What video card and driver?
Blimey, that was a quick response!
Tried changing it to 100 (set to 1 as installed) but RG hung. I'll have a play tomorrow when I have more time.
May be worth posting that when it starts I get a Midimapper error (couldn't find it apparently) & the hard disk error mentions trying to find Tomb. exe.
Cheers Nick
OT: Morrowind is MUCH more fun than RedGuard....and it works good too. 😀

Ahh but Redguard & I have unfinished business, from when I got rid of my Voodoo.
I'll finish the damn game even if it kills me 😀

I prefered Redguard. I'm hoping for Redguard II.
