ThunderGL wrapper...
15.01.07 at 02:19:23
 
Looks like our old mate @Geri of LegendGrafiX has struck again! Shocked

An OGL->OGL wrapper called "ThunderGL"... Grin

(it 'adds' functions to your standard GL driver)

3Dfxzone.it has a news article on this: -

http://www.3dfxzone.it/news/puntatore.php?uid=4202

@Falcon, could you upload the wrapper to the archive somewhere - I cannot navigate Hungarian web pages to DL the wrapper... Tongue

Any luck with this @Falcon? ???

(although my guess is that the news story I found was about a 'private' beta...maybe?) Tongue

==edit==

Looks like I was correct...

Oh crap, I forgot about the Thread (lots of work)....

Getting old Tongue

I'll correct my mistake and see to upload it today.

-- edit --
Looks like really deep into the Beta phase, but it's being worked on right now (which is good).

Alright, it's online...

www.falconfly.de/tools.htm

I do wonder, however, why Geri labels it a "non-public" Alpha Version, if the Download Link is there (?)

maybe 'non-public' is some sort of odd terminology for "I'm trying not to get too over-excited and release it to everyone on the forum and the rest of the world too...oops!" Roll Eyes

LOL! Grin

Anyhow - it's apparently a OGL -> OGL function wrapper for ANY card... Shocked

...wonder if it would eventually allow us to run nVidia demos on our Radeons...NEAT! 8)

Anti-vga-artifact version of ThunderGL helping us, to play OpenGL games with defected, memory-doomed, or pipeline burned VGA cards.

Would be easier for testers if you had a URL with a download link... Wink

...maybe a sourceforge site... Smiley

I would volunteer...but I don't have a 3Dfx rig assembled ATM. Undecided

No, this is a closed test, testers are checking the tgl with specified game and specified card, and i on the fly modifying the code and rebuilding it for them. This can be doed only with msn or icq or another instant messaging service.
