So there is antialiasing in this game? Game specific Edge AA I presume? Wonder why not more Glide games used this really, this one here even runs on a P90... I personally never seen an anti-aliased edge in a Glide game ever.... at least as far as I can recall on a Voodoo2 (obviously not v4/v5). The …

eGames always tries to plug other games with their games so I wouldn't be surprised... Casual games are just rife with that stuff since the 2000 burst of them. Big Red Racing is a false positive.

The Voodoo converts from 24-bit to 16-bit, and then does a DAC filter to try and estimate a 24-bit picture out of the dither (leading to blurriness and unintentional edge smoothing in places).... Voodoo3 has extensive control on what filter to use in this case. Shame it doesn't support 24/32-bit …

Bleh. My attempt at porting the shader to DOSBox (to use with kekko's software emulation of Glide, and the Direct3D patch) kinda failed. It needs 5 passes for it to work (including the gamma pass + lines) and I couldn't seem to do that. // "LeiFX" shader - Pixel filtering process // // Copyright (C) …

I beat Saints Row The Third twice now - second run was more completionist (96%!!!), and was Hard difficulty. .....with the 3dfx filter at that 😁 it messes up in cutscenes because cutscenes force high lighting detail which is a different postprocessing effect that conflicts.

It's especially pathetic when there were better bundles at the same 1994 timeframe, like Diamond for example... which was just gaming packed along with a 2X CD-ROM and a WSS soundcard. It's also got the obligatory encyclopedia disc too, but this one had PATRICK STEWART so it's better!!!

What I've used for myself is Resqflpy for floppies and VGACOPY for microfloppies (with some option off so it doesn't blank 'unused' sectors in the image so I could go 'mining' in them later, and 99 retries). They're probably not the best recommended options out there and it's all a YMMV thing.
