not if you own the disc hahaha 😀)))) but it's not worth the trouble if you have a system like that. The 3dfx version was made just for extra speed on Pentiums since 24-bit color performance was generally poor in 1997

The 3dfx version only looks better because there's bilinear filtering using real 3dfx hardware - other than that, it's just like gta24 and the windows version

Is there any source port that actually retains the classic software mode look of Doom and allows you to configure the resolution as you want? You might want to give prBoom a try. I'm not thrilled of Doom ports that have to compensate with lens flares, either. My second choice for a port is …

Can it be done? What i'm trying to compile is the audiolib that comes with the ROTT source (and not ROTT itself - only the audiolib). My main concern is the adlib FM and MPU-401 output for MIDI (rather than all those digital sound libraries and mixing stuff) Why? Screw Allegro, that's why.

Before the Columbine shootout, Doom only was controversial in that it destroyed worker productivity - news stories covering Doom in 1994/1995 was mostly "DOOM- it took over my poor life forever!!! good freaking bye, sol.exe!". Wolfenstein 3D was controversial in the worker productivity destruction …

Does anyone else running linux or Ubuntu have an issue like this? I've only had mouse speeds changed when the resolution changes after I fullscreen. It's worse with differing screen aspects like 320x400. This is in a real Ubuntu. Sounds like a "VMWare sucks" problem outside of DOSBox's control. Can …

No. UnrealEngine game video drivers aren't cross compatible with each other, and none of them work on UnrealEngine2 games (which is what Postal 2 is).

Why not just use 0.74 natively without an XP layer? 0.74 works with Z for me.

I made like a swaaye and captured The Happy Fun Neon Sign Hallway for comparison purposes... now you can compare between 1997 vs 2000! Both 1024x768x16 (max pcx2 res) on the same saved spot. CAN YOU SPOT THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN POWERVR FIRST GEN VS POWERVR THIRD GEN!?!?!?

The amazing thing about the i740/i810 is that it can run the latest build of Darkplaces O_O except for one thing - lightmap problem. but that's pretty much the only problem. The control panel for it is all redundant amounts of screen resolution selectors with logos all over it to pretend it has a …

I do recall in previews that the JK software mode was touted as having better graphics than Quake software mode and that is definitely true. They weren't even considering 3D hardware at the time though. There was no GLQuake yet. True...ish. One edge JK had than Quake's software was the area tinting …

Yes. It's a Win16 game (note the 16, this is important), so run it in Windows 3.1 (note the 3.1, this is important) in DOSBox.

Why are you trying to run Windows 95 programs in DOSBox? That's what Wine is for. There's a mistake in there somewhere, because DOS apps don't turn into Windows apps overnight.

Yeah it looks wacky like the texture setting is just subdivision of the texture face. Can you test a Direct3D SONY Singletrac game on that card and compare with PSX? (Twisted Metal II, Jet Moto)
