What are you working on?

Sadly some ati cards simply cannot take this engine tried it on a 7x series and runs like oil on that but the mobility radeon series has been more than flaky.
While you can use another engine you will have to tune settings a lot to get it as detailed as it can be with my engine i upped the ante a lot.
Next project will be implementing the glew based renderer on a stock engine but ill keep optimizations to a minimum this time hopefully that will help on those cards.

If you want Doom3 to work on everything, port it to D3D3. Vertex light everything, software process the normal maps to calculate vertex shading values on models, and compromise any special blending and maybe THEN it'll work on a Voodoo2- no wait, a ViRGE........ and a radeonhd

[Spike]

or write a software renderer for it and you can still use normalmaps and everything, and it'll run on anything with only a framebuffer, even dos. yay... :s

Yeah, the mobility 5xxx is hit-or-miss. And as I understand it, picky about shader syntax.

I can allready get D3 to run on a voodoo2 hehe actually an old hack from before the source was free looks like crap though.

I been trying to hack together a driver for the older radeons based on AMD's newer drivers so far without success but if i manage to get one running ill tune in

Messing around in blender working on some game models for a game I want to make. Some of you may have seen this from #qc. Feedback is always welcome, cheers!

Neat for a software engine looks quite polished.

[leileilol]

Dither spans takes care of that area really well too, though I feel error diffusion dithered spans would be more interesting, like Radeon 7x00 dither!

[ceriux]

are there any software quake engines with better net code?

The back of that vehicle reminded me of Skyroads, and the overall shape feels like a clipped up transport shuttle from Star Wars

[Hectate]

Skyroads, now that's going back

Yeah, the characteristic look of a Star Wars shuttle was one of the reasons this doesn't have a vertical fin at the rear, despite the fact that - aerodynamically - it's rather unstable or uncontrollable without it, hah. In theory anyway. It IS a fictional spaceship

btw anyone tried running my Doom3 executable without the hd pk4 files ? asking because i noticed what seems to be an error in the arb shaders i supply.
