Re: dgVoodoo 2 for DirectX 11

Posted on 2018-10-16, 18:38

Main reason of dgVoodoo D3D9 is that I wanted to expose D3D8.1-level through D3D9 once most of the needed code was already implemented. So to understand this better: D3D8.dll will go into the game folder. From there it will go through d3d11 or d3d9 depending what i select in the main page config …

I'm testing Unreal in D3D wrapped to D3D11 by DGV2 on an i3 8300 and I must say tath the CPU is really important, more than the GPU actually (a 750 Ti beats a 1050 Ti thanks to the quad core vs dual core+hyperthreading). A D3D11 wrapper is available here : http://kentie.net/article/d3d11drv/index. …

Dege, you may also consider how to make dgVoodoo2 not to advertise itself as virus threat. I think the way that you coded dgvoodoo2 make it susceptible of virus threat from heuristic scanners point of view, similar to most EXE packers and self-modifying codes. Today's signature-less scanners are …

Ok, thanks for your help. that didn't work, but thanks for helping! Edit: By the way, the OG game doesn't need DgVoodoo to have good lighting effects, right? The widescreen patch is enough? Never tried it without dgvoodoo. :) I dont think the widescreen patch can restore shadows back. Dgvoodoo is …

I really don't know what to do ... don't suppose you have any expertise in the thirteenag widescreen patch? All you need from the widescreen files is: msacm32.dll and the scripts folder. You can try an older versions and see if that works. I remember that some new versions may crash from various …

Great effort. Thank you. The PC ports of SC games is mediocre at best. There are missing shadows all over the place. Sloppy work or cut down versions, for performance reasons. The game was a killer for the hardware of that time. I did test all drivers and I am surprised that nvidia kept the code …

Hi Dege, Several wips have been released but this issue here still happens(been waiting patiently for some changes:D ). With dgVoodoo the shadows in that spot dont show(where Sam is looking between doors). With the original card the shadows are there. Thank you.

Questions: How much DgVooDoo wrapper emulate a real GF4? I'm thinking that the game might look at some other things. Example : Device Id , Device name, device properties & capabilities etc. Another way is to debug the game in a real enviroment. Windows Xp+GF4 Ti +driver. Out of curiosity what …

Re: dgVoodoo Splinter Cell Games

Yes, it's an engine thing. The engine (or the game itself by using the engine) tries to figure out if the shadow is visible or not. It sometimes fails. I saw the same when debugged the shiny floor bug. Depending on the shadow visibility, the game takes different renderpaths and that's why the shiny …

Yes. It's a game engine problem. Shadows comes and goes away with mouse move on PC. Tested with GF 4 TI 4600. Same issue. There are more instances of this problem through the game but you need to really look for them. Same for SCPT but ,there are more obvious. I guess that these problems are fixable …

It's strange. I cannot reproduce neither the crash nor the missing oil splash. It may depends on the resolution (and it's a z-fighting issue in fact), I'll check that out. This looks like the issues in SC1 @ 2 where some things dissapers with mouse move. Z-fighting issue also in SC1 when resolution …

Always wanted to report this but always forgot about it. So i try to put 11000 MB and after the save and reopen …
