Hello, I've done some testing on my machine with the CVS branch that Manuel did so well. I find that it works great on my machine. I get about 27 fps in gltron, but this is a k6 550mhz. Quake 3 was even "nearly" playable in 548x380(or whatever that mode is). I just saw now, that you are using a PCI card. Perhaps I can get this code to my friend with a iMac :-) (anyone know where I can get a PPC cross compilier?)
The Mach64 driver calls for agp, which is why it's failing, I suppose that you could take out that call for machines with PCI cards, but AGPgart won't mess up machines even without AGP chipsets. What kind of speed do you get with Pulsar? You might also want to look at the cpu utilization. My frame rate in Pulsar runs from 45-90fps, but the CPU utilization seems to be greater at the slower frame rate. in a window at 1024x768. When I use the -root option it runs about 35fps (again at 1024x768). Though when using the -texture option it's pretty solid at 45fps with cpu at about 50%. Without the -fps option it seems much smoother. By the way, in comparison, my setup doesn't get over 200fps in glxgears, and the cpu is at 100% Malte Cornils wrote: >Manuel Teira wrote: > >>Have you got errores related to the glide library? >>Perhaps you should comment out the line: >>#define HasGlide3 YES >>in the host.def file. >>Or perhaps would be good to comment it out in our mach64 branch. >> > >oops.
