THX for answer,so your and Kool work could be in Amigamerlin 3.0?

Uhmmm... I don't think so! We're working on something else... although Kool might do A3. Never asked him!

Could you publish more info about OpenGL ICD?Do you implement new version of it (1.2-1.4) or just patching today version 1.1?

1.4 What do you think? I'm gonna repack the existing OpenGL DLL and say it's mine? ??? No way! Grin

I only ask Roll Eyes

Will you upgrade GL_bgra for working with UT2003 OpenGL renderer?How will you overcome lack of T/L.I think that ver 1.2 was 1.1+T/L.Doing geometry in software emulation?And what about shaders?I read somewhere about software emulation of them. Wink

About compiling the Banshee driver, anyone should know that file C:\3DFX\H5\WIN9X\DX\VERINFO.H has to be modified.

Quote:

#ifdef H5
#define VERSIONPRODUCTNAME "VSA 100\256 DirectX for Windows\256 95 and Windows\256 98 \0"
#define VERSIONCOPYRIGHT "Copyright \251 3dfx Interactive, Inc. 2000\0"
#else
#ifdef H4
#define VERSIONPRODUCTNAME "Voodoo3\256 DirectX for Windows\256 95 and Windows\256 98 \0"
#define VERSIONCOPYRIGHT "Copyright \251 3dfx Interactive, Inc. 1999\0"
#endif // H4
#endif // H5
#endif

should be replaced by

Quote:

#ifdef H5

#define VERSIONCOPYRIGHT    "Copyright \251 3dfx Interactive, Inc. 2000\0"

#define VERSIONCOPYRIGHT    "Copyright \251 3dfx Interactive, Inc. 2000\0"
#endif // H4
#endif // H5
#endif

I think Daniel Borca is aware of it. I post this only for others which are trying to compile the Banshee driver.

Regards

About that file C:\3DFX\H5\WIN9X\DX\VERINFO.H

Quote:

** ***************** Version 327 *****************
** User: Cwilcox Date: 8/14/99 Time: 10:22a
** Updated in $/devel/h5/Win9x/dx
** Removed Banshee, added entry for Napalm, which will be set to Voodoo3
** until a product/driver name decision is made.

Cwilcox you are a bad boy ! Grin

BTW if someone has compiled the Banshee driver, please send me a copy to phoenix15@free.fr (20 MB storage

), not vbv3@hotmail.com (2 MB storage Sad

)

Regards

Okidok!

I fixed the Banshee driver. The last upload was done in a hurry, and some things slipped me. Sorry for that! Sad

The Banshee driver compiles OK, now!

Unfortunately, I cannot upload the binaries, because there are so many flags to play with... And I definitely cannot afford to upload so many versions. OTOH, my quota on Geocities is only 15MB. Sad

Here are the Banshee-related flags:
TU, HP, ACF ?? (AT ??), SE, SD ??, HR, SA, SLIAA2D

And the V3-related flags:
HP, ACF ?? (AT ??), SD ??, HR, SA, SLIAA2D

Another thing! I updated the compilation instructions! The SW_TNL builds OK now. With the processor pack, of course. As you can imagine, I did it *WITHOUT* installing MSVC Grin

Hehehehe! Yup! I am a stubborn bastard Grin

and I won't install MSVC for anybody! Well, maybe for a super-chick! Grin

Wow! I hope my GF doesn't see *THAT*!

Anyway, the new archive is up and ready!

PS: as for my future plans on 3dfx HW, like Hamlet said: "the rest is silence".

PPS: I can compile the driver with the Intel compiler also! I just found out last night Shocked

I have the compiler for a while now, but never used it... Now I can throw away the processor pack Wink

BTW, anybody knows any tool to deal with newer .CABinet files? The ones that have "ISc(" as the first four bytes in the file. I'm tired to install packages just to know what exactly is in an archive Cheesy

Okay, give me the desired flags and I'm gonna send you the binary driver. Roll Eyes

Uhmmm... I discovered something. The newer M$Compilers run amok trying to super-optimize the VXD (making it unusable). The standard VC98 works, tho... ??? I need to run some checks with the Intel compiler.

Of course, I dream of Software TnL ! And I wanna have best performance. I have faith in your choice. Regards

Where is much wisdom there is much grief! And he that increaseth knowledge, increaseth sorrow...

What I mean is: will the "default" work for you?

Well, it's your choice. Perhaps tomorrow!
