Giants (DX8 patch) shadows are now good! But there's the old problem with terrain and sea bumpmapping ON:
Turning it OFF (in the game options) the scene becomes perfect.

Old problem with the trees:
Them fucking trees.

Still problems with the Phong (yes, I know I can disable it 😁 ): red light (disabling the Phong it's correct :p )
What exactly does Phong do?

Red lighting issue is not present in retail/Steam (official) SC Versus, only in modded one ( http://www.moddb.com/mods/splinter-cell-source-code ), so not a big problem.
It's a simple hint for Dege, if he got some time to investigate.
First post here, boy what an awesome place!
Want to thank you for the latest version of dgVoodoo, I can finally play Chaser again without the stutter that's been plaguing it in Windows 10 in dx8. I had tried all of Boris's dx8 to dx9 converters as well as Crosire's version but they all crashed the game. Really excited to see that MSAA might be added in the future for dx8 games but for now I'm using a bit of downsampling plus radeonpro to add fxaa (smaa made the static shadows all blocky).
I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that those tree/foliage issues with Chrome can be sorted out. I have a thing for B-rated early 2000s eastern european shooters, 🤣. Thanks again!

You can already enable MSAA in dgVoodooSetup. It's just the game's internal AA implementation (if it has one) that doesn't work yet.

So I'm not the only one 🤣!
Green tint bug exiting from Thermal vision in Steam version of Splinter Cell Versus (shipped with SCCT), only present using the wrapper.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS 😁

And it's working with in-game postprocessing too! (kind of divine for DX8-era limits)

game works fine but the config utility crashes, fault module is D3D8.dll
These issues are still present in WIP13
Dege, would it be possible to exclude an exe inside the folder from using dgVoodoo's DDraw.dll somehow?
For example a game has a 3DFx.exe and a D3D.exe.
dgVoodoo works fine with the D3D.exe but conflicts with several Glide wrappers you want to use for the 3dfx.exe. So everytime you switch between D3D and 3dfx mode you have to either move the dlls or disable dgVoodoo in dgVoodooSetup.

Ah, so you can, I'm a noob at this dgVoodoo trickery. AA working great now.

Crash with Nosferatu configurator is fixed.

I'd rather introduce dynamic shader compiling into Glide too, to avoid the need of using multiple wrappers for a game.
Better performance and workaround for the ATI HD7xxx and R9 series crash. And, it would be nice to make it a global feature not just for DirectX.

I still haven't tried that game, but hopefully I will fix that somehow. 😀
