hehe thanx for the the kind replies people :) though the sad thing is 9 years ago I lost 120 others, which still hurts. them Pyro-GX'es from Darkbishop are still big favours they remind me of P.I.M.P. my Pyro-GX 8) :P 8) Are there any other Pyro galleries around today? If so I'd adoroe to see them!

DXX is really good on a high end machine, isn't it? I'm spoiled, especially with a 19 inch display and a resolution of 1600 X 1200 and full 8X FSAA! Puts the Voodoo card to shame. I've got it framed on the wall right now. :lol: ugh no though Rotated Grid FSAA x8 on a 6000 is hard to beat qua image ...

hmm yeah you do have a point there

D3 has more freedom also, which is a very important factor for Monster Ball hehe

Gold Leader

we have d3 for monsterball, come play d3 with us Man I'd love to, do you use D3 1.5 beta also? I do since I like the extra sparks you get from the poewrups themselves :D Descent3 is alot different to Descent1 &2 though it does give me the Descent feel, the mod PyroMania 1.5 is very cool though ...

hmm I dunno I never made a 3D render well yeah that painted Pyro-GX case mod I did 9 years ago hehe!

even so they look very cool imho

Gold Leader

It'd take some time to model that in Bryce - if only the textures weren't so gaudy. I don't recognise that name. A callsign might have made things earlier - though honestly the only artist I know of who made Descent models using Bryce was Kuman, and that's not him. Midgard did some work using Bryce...

Great news Zico DXX-Rebirth runs great on my ASUS X800 XT PE AGP & Dell/ATi M18 MR 9800 as well no bugs no crashes no nothing! I used reso's 1024 x 768 x 32 + FSAA x 6 & AF x16HQ, great work qua VGA support mate! The Voodoo5 5500 PCI ran it as well game startup as game play went very fluid @...

HI all well the title says it :) It's acollection of 3D renders from lost 3D artisits, like the ones from Darkbishop, they are my favourites as the ones from Kuman, so here it is :) http://www.3dfx.ch/gallery/v/3dfx_collectors/collectors_obiwankenobi/Descent/ my favourites are these 3 :) Pyro-GX wit...

Gold Leader

Sure - you can also implement a whole 3D engine into a text-processing program. The question is if it's the right approach - like Diedel said a new engine would probably be a better choice for that fancy effects. On the other side I still think effects like reflections look totally out of place in ...

Gold Leader

foreseen this I have..

Gold Leader

okay here's mine then

a desktop from the best Descent project running

Great thanx go to MetalBeast for this new wall paper and the entire DXX-Rebirth team including Zico of course

Gold Leader

Ferno, I remember well when you talked with the Core Decision people, always saying "we" and "us" until told that there is no "we" for you ... seeing that really removed all doubt I had about the driving force within you. You are begging to be "somebody", to ...

Gold Leader

It's amazing how you still have the cheek to teach me about being polite after what you have been saying here. It says enough about you that you started to throw hissy fits simply after being told to stop it in the D2X-XL forum. You are just a joke in your narcissist self admiration. You really hav...

Gold Leader

hmm maybe an easter super level or an easter pack DXX Rebirth with easter decorated robots or so :D just a funny idea I had in mind :D the desktop MetalBeast made has a nice example hehe. well for the game it's self maybe some more reflections on water & lava surfaces, so you'd see a soft reflec...

Gold Leader

heh... well I have no idea what that means, but thanks for the hyperlinks. ^_~ well what he really writes isn't very nice, here's his mean words as in a translation: German: Irgendwie habe ich keine Lust mehr, immer wieder neu zu sagen wo so ne Meldung hingehört. English: Somehow I have no more des...

At the moment it's no big deal to provide Support for at least OpenGL 1.1. However I am not sure how long I can keep this since OpenGL 3.0 will also introduce some API changes. I always try to keep the game compatible and also those API changes are not too serious but I can't tell for any time of t...

Gold Leader

I'm pretty sure none of the D*x projects support Glide. Chiefly because there's no reason to any more... heh well our 3dfx cards do have OpenGL as MesaFX support as the FSAA on 3dfx cards is godlike for retro based games, I am very sure that it will be possible as I'll be testing it just in a few m...

Gold Leader

hey Zico Man DXX-Rebirth is so addictive man I'm hooked to it allready :D it really has more feel for freedom as it runs great on my 8 year old Dual P3 1Ghz system hehe, I can help you with 3dfx support since I have many friends from my 3dfx sectors which are willing to run it as well :) D1X-REBIRTH...

Gold Leader

Great work on this great modification Zico I also became a member of your site btw

I just love new idea's

Gold Leader

yeah this stunned me for a sec also, I did send Diedel a PM since it shocked me also.

I just hope nothing bad has happened.

And for now I'm replaying Descent 1, 2 and 3 again on my rebuilt Voodoo5 6000 retro system, the Descent series are still the best games ever created.

Gold Leader

you would need your own power station in your back yard within a few years

unless you can hope for a power tax drop

Did you even read the second half of that post? I assume since you didn't actually answer anything in the entire post that it is because you are unable to come up with an answer to anything in that post. Please prove me wrong and actually come up with a real response. I will consider any points you...

Also the geforce 6 series and up use rotated grid FSAA so the quality is virtually identical if not bette...

I have a 6800 as well, and I dream of the day when nVidia starts supporting Glide. =) Hm I can help you with that a friend of mine from Romania called Zeckensack made a very good Glide wrapper which enables 3dfx Glide on GeForce4 and ATi Radeon 8500 and up :) that program uses the original 3dfx Gli...

After buying a Riva 128 instead of a Voodoo1 and a Riva TNT instead of a Voodoo2, I promised myself that I'd only buy 3dfx for the rest of my life because of how much the nVidia cards sucked. So instead of going TNT2, I went Voodoo3, and instead of going Geforce2, I went Voodoo5. I don't regret it ...

Gold Leader

NV FSAA Sux big time to be honest :twisted: 3dfx and ATi still have the best FSAA. Did You know that my pic was without FSAA @ 1600 x 1200 x16 in Glide yours was 1280 x 1024 x 16 in Direct3D with FSAA x4 AF x16 well your FSAA is like FSAA x2 on a Voodoo5 LoL a big laugh imho. here is a pic from the ...

ever played Descent3 with T&L disabled on a 6800ULTTA then it's a fair play right ;) [dyk]Descent 3 is a Directx 6 game, thus no matter what video card you are using Transform and Lighting in the hardware is automatically disabled.[/dyk] nope didn't know that since I only play the game on Voodo...

Obi, how did you get the 3DFx cards to reconcile with Dx 8 and 9 fx? Never could get my V3 3k to run the more advanced stuff. (btw, sry for the skim earlier.

if you can't hold a worthwhile discussion here, then we have no good reason to go to the board you've linked too - outside of the fact this forum already went thru this 6 years ago, when all of this was germaine. why no one has posted a 32-bit d3d screenshot is beyond me. Well I post something then...

Gold Leader

Anyways Sorry for my fury but I think it's best to close this topic because it's gone too far off-topic which is a shame and something I didn't expect to happen nor even ask for.

Maybe I asked something in a place not welcome for 3dfx people...

/me owns a Voodoo3 3000 AGP 16MB card and a Diamond Monster 3D II 8 MB PCI card. I've seen 3dfx and glide plenty in action, aside from the sky, everything else looks better on a geforce. You can't even compare a voodoo5 to a geforce in HL2 or any other recent game, since the voodoo5 can't run HL2 o...
