Leilei what did you get before the latest patch on Quake 3?

Probably next year. Can't give us a half or even better a quarter it might appear? No need to really mostly joking with you but a year is a long amount of time to plan for something being released. I guess I will just tell myself be ready for it coming out on 12/31/17 and anything sooner will be a ...

I think it be alright to see these cards available but maybe something to go back to after Voodoo 2, but much longer after if you got Voodoo 3 it will do everything you could ever want from a voodoo based system. You even get good 2D and anything beyond it would come about in a time that D3D and Ope...

Thank you

Any ETA for v11? if not cool just wondering what you are thinking.

Yeah Networking would be wonderful I want that second most of all functions. First most would be a virtual gamepad mapping system. So we could pass through modern gamepads to put in compatible button presses. Right now I can map them to keys easy enough, but not much luck with anything analog. Even ...

I agree with Zup I would use a Virtualbox setup of say windows XP and see if its built in Dos emulation can play it. Since your not looking at a game it really should not need anything special. If that does not work move on to dosbox, if it needs windows look into installing 3.x into dosbox. Still n...

Is it a Dos program?

I would love to see some later USB joysticks emulated in the future and maybe up to something like 4 devices at a time. I recall having a USB controller with a dpad an analog stick and 8 buttons in the around 2000 ish. Also had a gyro for tilts that acted like dpad presses. So even windows 9X times ...

How does one install the emulated joystick?

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...

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),...

First off I could never figure out how to compile the latest revisions of this emulator. So instead I was wondering if someone could tell me how the performance of Voodoo 1 emulation is doing. If I am not mistaking it is now being handled with a recompiler. I also remember being told that Voodoo 1 w...

I do wonder about Voodoo 2 is it really no more than a Voodoo with an extra texture unit and a higher clock? If so I could understand why there would be little rush to emulate it. Still it does not seem like it would take much more to do so. I also am guessing the extra CPU power it would take would...

I am running some glide games at full speed just fine with voodoo emulation on a Phenom II system. What chokes my system is the higher clocked Pentiums. But sub 200 MHZ I seem ok and around 90 mhz I can run anything Voodoo that is emulated well at this point full out. Well full out if it could origi...

I don't plan to run this program on any computers I have that lack SSE3 even. Almost say in a couple more years you could start optimizing for SSE3. I do not have anything that is SSSE3 capable though. Well one i5 system that does not work but other than that lol. My two main PCs right now are a Phe...

I thought voodoo 1 was only a DX3 card Voodoo2 got up to DX5 since 4 was more or less skipped. I don't think 3DFX survived long enough to get to 8 but by that point I would recommend a virtualization solution and windows XP. Do you have an example of some DX8 games that don't work in a Virtual Machi...

Really would love to see the NE2000 feature. Number one on my Wishlist for what it is worth .... But seeing this post all I could think is **** just got real. . Was completely unaware that things are progressing so fast. I was thinking mid next year. But I am not complaining not in the slightest.

At what revision did support for more than 16 heads start? I must have missed that memo . I thought we still had that limit keeping us back at 8 gb drives? If this is true that we can go beyond that point I am very excited.

What are the goals of a 64 bit versus 32 bit options? I see some mention of it in the latest reversions and just curious of what we are hoping to gain. I know that sounds like I am trying to say it is pointless, but my framing of the question comes completely out of ignorance. I love hearing about g...

I'm sure I speak for many when I say that your "insanity" is one of the better things to come along in the emulation scene in many years, Tom. ;) You've single-handedly brought the current state of PC emulation up to something respectable. It's actually been quite something to observe the...

That is great news. Inch by Inch getting closer to emulating anything a modern computer at least for Windows does not run natively. On paper you got the Quake III minimums and that has me excited to see. I await patiently watching where you will go next and what you will do. And I wait for the day I...

So the limits are only physical limits because of the form factor? Nothing to limit the chip itself? Also as I stated above in this emulator to use the mobile chips are we going have to emulate a laptop motherboard to pair with it or not?

I was trying to google some information about how the Mobile Pentiums compared to the Desktop ones but was not finding much to go on. I was wondering if anyone could help enlighten me on the subject. Also wondering if they are going work with Desktop setups in PCEM since I see they where specificall...

Score one for the good guys.

So many people think all the good games are already emulated, some think that a virtualmachine can do everything. Had this conversation with someone who said if it is not emulated by this point and over 15 years old it just was not worth emulating. So I pointed out a few examples of emulators and wh...

Incidentally, Streets of Simcity is probably the worst game I've played during the development of this emulator.

Performance wise or just as a game on its own?

Rev 250 also hits one of my performance targets for v10 - on my machine (Core i5-something-or-other, ~3.6 GHz) Quake II timedemo demo1, in software at 320x240, hits 20 fps without the emulator dropping below 100%. On P166 I think, with infinite cache. Does 3D acceleration hurt or help framerate in ...

Thank you I will see if I can't figure it out.

now that was a quick reply love the work. Thank you sir. Can't wait for your next release.
