Hi Paul
Will the Wrecks Gallery from Carmageddon be supported in Glidos in the nearby future??? And is it possible to let the music run.
Please respond.
Peter.
I doubt it will in the near future. Currently I'm most concerned with preparing for Vista, where there is no environment for these games to even run.
The wrecks Gallery is awkward. The problem is that Carmageddon uses the LFB in an illegal way. You are supposed to lock it, quickly make changes, and then unlock it. Carmageddon locks it and leaves it locked, intermingling LFB writes with 3D rendering. Glide emulators typically use the unlock call to determine when to check the LFB for alterations. Carmageddon makes that impossible. There's no easy solution.

Oh!? So all my lovingly Glidos/VDMSound restored games won't work in Vista? Arse!
No, I think I have it sorted. At least TRX will be ok. I now have VDos32 running the Voodoo version of TR1, and communicating with Glidos. If anything it seems to be working a bit better than via ntvdm.exe. Seems more responsive.
