A download counter would be an interesting feature, especially if you had statistics from the past.

Wow, this is amazing! Above and beyond my expectations. You are fantastic. I wish you all the time in the world to work on these, but we've been this patient so far, what's another five years? :D You should be able to find all the SDKs on VOGONSDrivers thanks to all the work from people who have …

NGlide works with Win9x if you have DX9 videocard (GF FX/6xxx, Radeon 9xxx/Xxxx). Tested by myself. :) Unfortunately my Radeon X850 PE Agp died from the bad soldering and I not test latest nGlide versions in Win9x. Thanks Gamecollector, fixed. However, you would still need to use Glidos to wrap …

What will it take to get hardware acceleration working with the G200 in DOS? To REALLY answer your question: This would require: - Creating DOS OpenGL hardware accelerated drivers for Matrox G200 (there is some Matrox G200 documentation released that could help with this, and some you can get from …

I'd like to say that I'm less sleep-deprived now, but I'm not. To begin: Widening your supported specifications to Windows 9x gives you the ability to use wrappers that support DOS command-prompt windows in Windows. As of this writing, that includes: - dgVoodoo 1.x - Glidos (which uses OpenGlide) ** …

As far as I know, with all my digging with wrappers... can't be done natively in DOS. It just doesn't have the generic hardware acceleration support for 3D cards. The only common 3D gaming hardware-accelerated rendering APIs that the Matrox G200 supported was Direct3D and OpenGL. You can't run …

Most companies are not that good at retaining information from their past, that information is many many servers ago... don't criticize them too badly. Also, do not put too much trust into what they _can_ dig up from that era (ex. what MSI found out from you), about the only companies I'd trust with …

I have a commercial release of this game, a re-release by Encore - it was only a few dollars back in 2006 or so. I can test out your procedure here when I get some time. It looked like a terrible Halo ripoff from the cover art as I recall. 😀

Did you see this? http://www.asrock.com/mb/ULi/939Dual-SATA2/ I've seen that in person before, it's really goofy - between the "Future CPU Port" slot and the AGP and PCI-E support of the ULi 1695 chipset (ULi® M1695/ ULi® M1567), pretty crazy stuff. The two slots will work, but not simultaneously, …
