Re: Moto Racer needs 16 bits screen mode

Moto Racer 1 works fine with dgVoodoo2 on my PC (GoG-version). I'm using dgVoodoo 2.52 on Moto Racer 1, on dgVoodooSetup file under DirectX, ATI Radeon 8500 as video card, VRAM 128mb, I personally use 1280x960@60hz resolution (I have a 1080p monitor), AntiAliasing 8x. Under the General Tab in …

Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

I was just about to post a topic regarding the newest Windows 10 Fall Update breaking compatibility with Red Alert Yuri's Revenge using dgVoodoo2. The game returned to desktop while the RA2 main menu soundtrack was still playing in the background, and Alt+Tab didn't work while trying to return to …

Re: dgVoodoo2 and SDL 1 support

Thanks; it was really that easy to set environment variables? I thought you were supposed to download some kind of Linux-command prompt for Windows (or even edit some of the SDL source-files and then recompile SDL.dll), like I had to do to compile opentyrian (that was a nightmare to compile). Now I …

dgVoodoo2 and SDL 1 support

There are certain older games and even emulators that's either not maintained much nowadays, or maybe still maintained but with rather "ancient" video-support. What I have in mind, is the good old Dos-emulator DosBox, OpenTyrian, and the freeware game Giana's Return. What all of those games/ …

Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

You really should look into DxWnd. It can be tweaked to do integer scaling and supports many games that use weird hacks that dgVoodoo2 hasn't implemented. It also has some SDL support though I've been very unsuccessful with using that. Yeah; I have actually used DxWnd myself for quite some time, …

Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

I decided to try the new dgVoodoo2 WIP37 out, and at last (thanks to the dgVoodoo.conf file that's included with WIP37 that can be edited in a text-editor) I can activate the option ForceNearestPointFilter. With the Nearest Point Filtering, I can finally play older games like Warcraft 2 BattleNet …

Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

Seeing as this wrapper also handles good 'ol 2D-games in directdraw, are there any plans on continue improving that part of this wrapper? Old games such as Warcraft 2 Battle.Net Edition and Jazz Jackrabbit 2 can finally be scaled to higher resolutions thanks to dgVoodoo 2 (they both run in 640x480 …

Re: Toy Story 2 (with dgVoodoo) - Zurg Boss Battle speed glitch

in Windows
I have not tried this yet, but I have my doubts that limiting the fps would work, since when unchecking the "Force Vsync" box in dgvoodoo, Toy Story 2 runs at maybe 20-30 fps and in slow motion, and the boss fight is still bugged. But I should maybe give it a chance either way; the slow-motion …

Far Cry 1 - multiplayer problems

in Windows
I'm having a strange issue while booting up Far Cry on my other PC. Even though the multiplayer works without issues on my main PC for reasons unknown, my other/spare PC is doomed to have problems with this game. I have both tried the GoG version and the Steam version, the same issue appears on both …

Toy Story 2 (with dgVoodoo) - Zurg Boss Battle speed glitch

in Windows
Finally I got this game working again some time ago thanks to the amazing dgVoodoo wrapper that was released some time ago, but it seems that the fun was not meant to last. For those of you that have played long enough into the game to encounter the Zurg battle, you may notice that this boss, …

Re: Red Alert 2 alt-tab/windows-key issues

in Windows
Both RA2 and Yuri's Revenge are working as it should now, without using the Borderless Gaming application and by only using DxWnd. Here are the steps in general for making RA2/Yuri great again: 1. Edit ra2.ini and ra2md.ini with notepad, and use these settings : [Video] AllowHiResModes=yes …

Re: Red Alert 2 alt-tab/windows-key issues

in Windows
I have made an account on the discussion board aka forum of the DxWnd app, and have together with the author found a solution to this issue https://sourceforge.net/p/dxwnd/discussion/general/thread/0d015bb8/ Long story short; Yuri's Revenge is as of today working in fullscreen windowed with both alt …

Re: Are there any good xinput to directinput wrappers?

I tried the XInput Plus application a while ago, but it does not deal well with multiple controller. I tried this app once again, and I figured out exactly why the xinput devices behave the way that they do when multiple controllers are connected. The reason is that the last powered on controller …

Are there any good xinput to directinput wrappers?

As many of you know, older games made before the xinput API became the new standard often used the old directinput API instead. Even though the Xbox 360/One gamepads uses xinput, they have to some extent backwards compatibility with the older directinput API. That means playing older games with an …

Red Alert 2 alt-tab/windows-key issues

in Windows
I have this problem regarding Red Alert 2 when it comes to multitasking. It's running fine as long as you don't alt-tab or press the windows-button. Once the game gets minimized, there's no going back. Once the game gets maximized again, the image disappears while the game is still running. I …

Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

Yay; Delta Force Land Warrior is finally working with forced resolution! Actually, there is one bothersome bug however; when moving the mouse to the right in game the aiming moves at a steady pace. Moving the mouse to the left however makes the sensitivity somehow a lot higher in that direction. …
