Re: [Linux] GUI discussion

Voodoo2 should work :) However the issue you're experiencing could be related to the Voodoo recompiler on 64-bit Linux which doesn't seem to work properly, at least with the games I've tried it with. So if you're running a 64-bit build and have it enabled you could try to disable it and see if it s...

Re: [Linux] GUI discussion

Windows automatically installed drivers for the s3 virge, not the voodoo 2. I installed it manually, the latest reference driver from the very site you've just mentioned. Even tried older drivers from the site and they don't work either. I even tried windows 95 and got the same error. That's why I t...

Re: [Linux] GUI discussion

Okay I seem to have some problems getting Voodoo 2 emulation to work. The drivers installed fine but upon launching 3dfx games I get this error as if windows could not properly detect the voodoo card. It appears on windows boot also. Has anyone also encountered this problem and possibly found a solu...

Re: How is Voodoo performance doing in latest REVs

I was under the impression that Pentium emulation was the current bottleneck. If that was true I would say further optimization maybe in order before moving on to Pentium II but if the Voodoo recompiler is all that maybe it is time to move on to trying some Voodoo II. Tell me what a bottleneck is t...

Re: How is Voodoo performance doing in latest REVs

Well Pentium being still a bottleneck I say it might be time to go Voodoo II I'm not sure you know what a bottleneck is.. Amen to that. Both my laptop and my i3 desktop can run Wolf3D on a P75 fine, but Doom and Duke Nukem 3D are a lost cause. Getting ~60% on P75 and ~75% on P66 for Doom, Duke Nuke...

Re: How is Voodoo performance doing in latest REVs

On my machine (Core i5-3550) with the recompiler enabled and using 2 render threads, the emulated fillrate is now always at or above the rate of the real card (35-40 mpixels/sec in actual games) in the games I tried. I have seen it go considerably faster (> 100 mpixels/sec) in one game (Shadowman),...

Re: Installing win 98 from CD

Thanks for the idea this workaroud actually worked!

Let's just hope the next release will add some proper virtual cd-rom support and fix any remaining issues.

Installing win 98 from CD

Hello I've run into a problem with installing windows 98 SE on Award 430VX PCI - Pentium MMX 233. I have never installed win 98 outside of VMs so bear with me please. I'm mainly interested in the 3dfx emulation since I've got a couple of games that refuse to work correctly on both VMs and wrappers a...
