Re: What game are you playing now?

in Milliways
Finished the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion last night in Baldur's Gate. Man, Durlag's Tower side quest is massive, and super difficult! By itself, it seemed to be about 15 hrs of gameplay. The other three side quests combined for probably 5 hrs. 20 hrs for an expansion pack? That's awesome. And …

Re: Diamond Stealth 24 VLB drivers

So can anyone confirm it's faster than a mach32 and soothe my worries? I'm afraid it's not so clear cut. According to vgamuseum.info, the Mach32 is faster in PC Player and Quake, but the S3 805 is faster in 3dbench. you'll just have to benchmark both cards in your own machine and decide which one …

Re: Cirrus Logic gd5424 textmode issue

There is a small component close to the PCI connector that has visible damage, so I attribute that component to the text mode issues. There is no such thing as " components for text mode ", apart from the char rom of very early mda/cga cards. Then I'm probably wrong. Here is what I'm talking about. …

Re: Diamond Stealth 24 VLB drivers

Thanks! Side question: this uh, is faster than a Mach32 right? I basically got it free but I'm gonna be pretty dissapointed if this doesn't make Doom 2 playable at good settings. Without knowing the rest of your system specs, it's hard to tell. Doom gets about 25 fps on a fast DX2/66, for reference …

Re: ti4200 AGP 4x or 8x or maybe ati 9800 pro?

Cool. None of those results look surprising. But I doubt you'd see any difference in pure DOS (which is what I thought we were talking about). @OP: Here is the difference between AGP and PCI in pure DOS: First result=AGP; Second result=PCI Cards: TNT2 M64 AGP 125.01 Mhz core, 143.18 Mhz clock TNT2 …

Re: ti4200 AGP 4x or 8x or maybe ati 9800 pro?

if agp 4 and 8 perform the same, then what is it that stops the scaling in DOS high resolutions? I think it has something to do with the lack of graphical acceleration due to no drivers in pure DOS. LFBE utils provide some of that. FWIW, I do see a difference between PCI and AGP with the same …
