Try setting DefaultEnumeratedResolutions to "none" and ExtraEnumeratedResolutions to "640x480, 1024x768" in dgvoodoo.conf.

When I open that file all I get is junk, it must be encrypted or something.

In newer versions of dgvoodoo you can edit the file with notepad, older versions are encrypted. Can't check right now, you might need a WIP.

Pandora's Box
With dgv2 black screen with background music
Without dgv2 it's ok except with the 3d puzzle. When you have to put the last 3d piece the game crash at 100%. Then if you restart the game and you put again the last piece, the game will not crash. Very strange...

Thanks, it worked perfectly with the WIP version.

Thanks Dege for dgVoodoo. I just released my BF1942 graphics mod and dgVoodoo helped in many ways, so i was thinking about reporting these things.

Interestingly lightmaps are working on ships now. Idk what is causing it, never seen it from Geforce4 GPU/WinXP to modern GPU. But with dgVoodoo the lightmaps are loaded.

It removes stutters. As i modded the game i thought i ran into an engine limit, because it started to stutter. With dgVoodoo it's totally playable.

Also ReShade works perfectly now. The only bug is that it's crashing after 2 map loads. The game reloads everything when it loads a map and seems like dgVoodoo can't handle it too many times. Everything works perfectly if i load a second map, but at a third load it crashes.

Edit: Also everything is with the latest WIP59.1, but i think recent versions all worked in the same way.

It sounds great! 😎
Where can your mod be downloaded from? I'm curious. Also, I might be able to fix those crashes (if they have the same reason as the original crash I fixed).

It's on moddb.

The crashing occurs without the mod too. It would be awesome to see that bug fixed. 🤣 My mod currently is about updated textures, increased LOD/render and some other minor tweaks. I did a bit of overkill with the tweaks, but LAA patch fixes the memory problem and dgVoodoo removes the stuttering, so it's totally playable. Thanks for the tool again.

Blair Witch Project Volume 1 should definitely work.

Tryed Outcast 1.1 "the updated one" with the latest 60.1 build, and so far it can stretch the image up, but can't change the games resolution to be higher.
and Avp Classic GoG, still refuses to scale in-game, but interesting enough, with the 59 build they shared the similar issue where they just shrink down to the top left as it was no upscaling done at all.

At least Outcast behaves somewhat different with build 60 vs 59, but Avp is still the same.

I played all three Blair Witch games (and Nocturne that runs on the same engine) with dgVoodoo 2 without any issues last year. I used version 2.54, Windows 7, AMD GPU.

Command & Conquer Generals
Issue: Ground texture is white on AMD Ryzen APU systems.

generals_2019_06_18_1v9ju0.png
(Game settings set to low in order to better visualize the issue.)

My system specs
dgVoodo Version: v2.55.4.1 and WIP61
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 2200G
GPU: AMD Radeon Vega 8 (APU)
Driver: Adrenalin 2019 Edition 19.6.2
OS: Windows 10 x64 1903

I've tried several videocard profiles in dgVoodoo, but none of them work. However, the issue does not occur on my second system (Ryzen 1600X, Nvidia Pascal GTX 1070).
Is this issue related to dgVoodoo or rather a bug in the graphics driver?

Thanks in advance!

Enable Fast video memory access or use dgVoodoo2 v2.54

Thanks for your fast reply!

While fast video access didn't fixed the ground textures, dgVoodoo2 v2.54 does indeed work correctly.
Is the current version (WIP 61) just bugged or was there an indented change from v2.54 to later versions that broke C&C Generals?

Maybe it would be a good thing to create a whitelist for "Fast Video Memory Access"-compatible games.
Or a blacklist for the ones with detrimental effects enabling this option.

Ohh, then it's the good old AMD problem again...
Fast vidmem access won't help this. It'd be really nice to have a little app for the reproduction so I could submit that to AMD.

Thied dgVoodoo with Serious Sam First Encounter, with choosing direct3d renderer in menu, screen goes black, the game still works perfect in windows7 without dgVoodoo, so just for info, don't bother? i do not.
