This problem gets worse at 120hz for some reason.
Re: Coil whine - fact or myth?
Posted on 2020-07-29, 14:51
Coil whine isn't a myth, I have a card that does it under certain (uncommon) conditions. Buy from somewhere with a good return policy. Except if you have AMD graphics cards because they can eliminate around 80% of the latency with their Enhanced Sync driver technology . That's basically triple …

Borderless was implemented ages ago, it's just relegated to the advanced settings (right click on tabs in dgVoodooCpl).
Re: Hydro Thunder (standalone port) broken as of v2.55

It's a know issue with AMD drivers and newer dgVoodoo versions. Dege is working on a D3D12 render, which doesn't seem to have the same issue. See the WIP versions topic: dgVoodoo 2.7.x and related WIP versions

Heretic II (1.06 or 1.07) has a black screen if I select 3dfx with dgvoodoo2 Glide2x.dll. At the same time, I hear the sounds of the menu if they start to press the arrow buttons. The only thing, the splash screen does not play with 3dfx. I tried this game but doesn't work with 3DfxGL => dgVoodoo. …
Re: Die Hard Trilogy 2 - game isn't saving

I played through the first 4 levels of this, saving each time. When I go to 'Load Game', the list is empty. According to PCGamingWiki, the save location is: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\n-Space\DHT2\Save Games Registry virtualization is sometimes a …
Re: Installing retail games on Windows 10 - CD/DVD Drive problems
Posted on 2020-07-08, 14:08
I've installed lots of old games from CD/DVD without problem. I haven't heard of this from anyone else either. It's probably not a Windows 10 problem, but a "you" problem. Maybe some commonality between the two systems you're not thinking of; some installed driver that messes with CD/DVD drive …
Re: Clive Barker's Undying crash: please check dgVoodoo debug info
Posted on 2020-06-29, 12:31
Judging by the log, Undying's resolution is set to 2560x1440? As mentioned in the thread you linked to, you can't do that. Undying's engine crashes at higher internal resolutions. Set Undying to a lower resolution and set dgVoodoo itself to a higher resolution.

Re: Why can't older 3D games be rendered at higher resolutions?
Posted on 2020-06-14, 01:33
High geometry != high res. Geometry rendering resolution is what practically everyone means when discussing game resolution. They're the same, to anyone but pedants. which can present artifacts for many games No one said all Gamecube games can be forced to higher rendering resolution, just most.
Re: Why can't older 3D games be rendered at higher resolutions?
Posted on 2020-06-13, 20:46
Most Gamecube games I've seen are emulated are rendering 3D geometry at higher resolution. kjliew is either wrong, or arguing some really pointless semantics. As for doing the same for PC games, as mentioned for really old games you can't. They don't draw their 3D graphics in any standard way, they …
Re: Command & Conquer / Red Alert Remastered source GPL'd
Posted on 2020-06-08, 14:36
That's random in a topic about the source release. But it's also weird no one's made a dedicated thread about the remaster of one of the most important PC games either. I hate the 90s voiced soundtrack too and I believe they're on every soundtrack release. But with the remaster we're getting a 6- …

You said "good story content and/or gameplay", but several of the things you listed are purely technical, so: AliasIsolation is essential for playing Alien Isolation (until 10 years in the future where we can supersample). It just implements temporal antialiasing and makes the game look a lot better …

Because suing people who have no money is a waste of time...and money (unless you are after something else like a takedown). The RIAA once sued a dead grandma. Suing for copyright is often about making examples out of people, not getting money. And any ruling cannot take into account future …

It's a charity that runs on donations. I am not sure there is anything to bankrupt. They did not make any money from their "book lending" so I doubt the publishers are going to go for the jugular. They will probably just force the "library" offline. They will try to get as much money as they can …

FYI you can't play Undying at higher ingame resolutions (it will crash at certain places). You need to select a lower resolution ingame and just force a higher one with dgVoodoo.

Um, you sure you're running a clean config? Because that log says VRAM is set to 64MB, the default is 256MB. At any rate, increase it since the log says the game is running out of VRAM.
