Thanks for the support, guys. The shaders will be here . Requires the efx + SweetFX bundle found in the recent posts of this thread . While it's still buggy and highly approximate (no proper dither) i'm very pleased on the way it's turned out so far. Been playing for HOURS at its current stage …

Other than the aforementioned RetroArch, there is the Direct3D patch with HLSL shader support at least, which is strongly similar to CG anyway.

Yep, the TSR and everything. Digital sound did work with most other games when I tried 12 years ago.

Truth5678's SVN Daum forks has working IDE CD-ROM emulation. The caveat is that you have to mount the image before booting and assign it to an IDE channel. Mounting host CD-ROM drives is still not supported unfortunately.

I think there was a 1997 game with cars and a postapocalyptic setting in a top-down perspective in a palette of mostly green and brown, forgot the name, and I can't bear to browse on Mobylames for it 😒 Can't confirm any 'holes' though....

PCs have been running UT for more than 90fps since 2001, so that seems very irrelevant I mean, why would anyone would want to run UT in 800x600 on a Core i7 anymore? 🤣 Besides, it's UnrealEngine1 which doesn't exactly scale well for the higher hundreds of the framerate....

Here are the EFX+SweetFX shaders so far, which could use a *lot* of improvement in the 'dither' and 'filter' aspects: http://leileilol.mancubus.net/shaders/cg/leifx_reduct.h http://leileilol.mancubus.net/shaders/cg/leifx_filter.h EDIT: I've updated with a 5-pass method which kills a lot of awful …

Any interest in porting it? I know I haven't posted it yet, it's just a shader tucked in a default.glsl from Darkplaces at the moment...

quake's sound code is rather optimized, but in any case you could start with -nosound.

Well guess what? I'm attempting it. Currently the shader is being prototyped in Darkplaces (relies on pixelsize which is a vec2 of 1 / screen width and 1 / screen height)
