I know Doom Builder works with it, though it's VERY EASY to make geometry that crashes the game. To get textures working you'd have to rip them carefully with XWE then dump them into folders (since A&A is Build-ISH with texture selection, there's no flats/patches discrimination) I was building a …

I'm pretty sure Intergraph cards had trilinear support... in 1994.

I'm surprised there's mention of S3 MeTaL working on Savage2000 with UT. i never got it working on savage2000 ever. MeTaL works on Savage4 though, i know that. It doesn't look very different from Direct3D infact.

Savage4 should work fine granted it's not 3.3v AGP1x/2x. InControl99 sucks though

that's true. and the sb20 from 1991 wouldn't have this Windows app suite you would see. it'd have some silly text to speech stuff like Dr. Sbaitso, a talking Parrot, and some intelligent pianist organ (very Microsoft SongSmithish). and some voc editing tool. and some cmf demonstrations. has those …

The motherboard pics aren't clear itself... so I don't even know if it has onboard video. If it does, plug in the monitor to the onboard VGA out first, then hop into the BIOS, set it to initialize the AGP card, then save/quit then move monitor cable over

well, it's the closest you can get to emu8k with a emu10k1. A SPC700 wavetable would need a very buffery echo reverb, and mandatory 4-bit compression on samples

Yup, teenagers were enthralled. I was there. Yeah I'd imagine Heretic wasn't a relative success among them considering you lift up heavy doors with chesty men on them which almost appears like you tried to reveal his loincloth. You'd expect Sin to carry the same success in 1998 among the teenagers …

The ATI equivelant isn't much better either. 800x600 max supported by VESA. Some chipsets outright don't support 640x480 but support the other lower/higher vesa modes (WTF!?) I should try the Kyro II again since I never really assessed its VESA capabilities fully.

MCI isn't strictly for PCM - MCI generally is the multimedia interface Windows 3.x uses. This is before the whole DirectShow thing. So, install [MCI] Midi Sequencer Media Player only accepts AVI, WAV and MID (maybe RMI too)
