Re: 0.09 Alpha 7 Release

Posted on 2003-01-04, 17:30

Two thumbs up :) Now there's only one peculiar problem remaining, as far as I can tell (I only got TR to test my teeth on, but it could affect other games as well). The transparency issue is completely gone... except when displaying the Inventory screen :confused: Have a look: http://namida.com/ …

Thanks Paul, I think I found the problem, it is exactly in the chroma keying, I changed the way palettes are handled but did not changed the ApplyKeyToPalette function. UPDATE: Wrong, the problem was in the ChromakeyValue function and not in the Apply... I will be releasing and 0.09 Alpha 8 right …

Re: Glidos v. 1.19.1 Bug

The first two levels are supposed to be logo free even for unregistered users, but at the moment owners of the very Original TR CD will have the logo from the beginning. All should be well for the Gold version and the Unfinished-Business version. If I could get a copy of the original TR CD, I could …

I must have missed some earlier posts: I didn't know about the transparency problem. I'll try to take a look today sometime. TR uses chromakeying. When I implemented that in OpenGlide, part of the alteration was to enable OpenGL blending when Glide has chromakeying enabled. I'd imagine that is where …

Re: wrong version of "Tomb.exe"???

Posted on 2003-01-04, 13:03

Hey I tried a couple more times to open TR1 with Glidos and this comes up: Can't copy Glid2xovl to C:\Tombraid\ *sob* That means one of three things. The file Glide2x.ovl has gotten removed from the main Glidos folder (probably C:\Program Files\Glidos); or you have no C:\Tombraid folder; or there …

Here's what I use, Paul. http://www.fraps.com/ Thanks mate, I'll give that a try. Be interesting to see what frame rate I'm getting here. If you could get closer to even 20fps, that would make a whole heap of difference, I think. Might be possible, although Fabio has already optimised what I think …

Still locked at 14fps, :( Oh well, Thanks for trying, mate. Yeh, that version wouldn't be any faster, but it should improve the menus, so you can see the cars you are selecting and the teams. How about yourself ? Have you tried the version I gave you ? And do you get the same results ? Yes but I …

CraigG wrote: Just tested the new glide.ovl, and it now runs at 15fps locked. That's a shame. I can't think of anything else to try at the moment: LFB stuff is just expensive. I'll keep thinking. I do have one more Glide2x.ovl version. Shouldn't be any slower and should sort out some of the menu …

Re: Re: Red Baron no sound with xp and opengl

Try it again. This time, after you set your preferences and the read only attribute (note the time), now go to the menu just before you actually quit and do nothing for a few minutes, then quit. After you quit, check the timestamp on your RBPREFS.DAT file. Is it set to the time you set the READ …

Here's another Glide2x.ovl. All the LFB stuff is back but without so much of a speed hit. The writes are done just once a frame after all the triangles are rendered. There's a problem in that LFB writes that are intended to provide a background for 3D rendered stuff actually cover the 3D stuff up. I …

Holy sh*t, this runs about 400fps, lol !! I had to run it at 1280x1024 and with 4x FSAA 8x AA, just to slow it down to make it playable. Wow it didn't run that fast for me. This is bad news if the games speed alters with the frame rate. Were you using ControlJudderFix? May be worth seting that to a …

XP and 2K

IF you try to play under Windows 2000 or XP, Screamer complains about not being able to find H:\somethingorother. Messing with Screamer.cfg fixed this. Here's the fiddled version.

Screamer 2

Posted on 2002-12-30, 19:24

I've been experimenting with Screamer 2 a bit. As I thought it makes heavy use of logical-frame-buffer writes. It also does a lot of LFB reads too, which is weird. Anyway, here is a version of Glide2x.ovl with all the LFB stuff disabled. You lose all the menus so you have to guess your way through …
