ALO
Not much I can say about this demo except we worked way too
damn long on it, we tried hard to make it a more than just
an Object show =).
Matrox/PowerVR Drivers Coming as soon as We weed the bugs out.
MMX and DrawPrimitive Drivers coming as soon as We take a Vacation.
If you are a card manufacturer and would like us to build
a driver interface to your card, please get in touch with
us.
Sorry for the mean neccessities for Software. I tried making
the 3DFX VS Software as indistinguishable as possible, we are
currently pumping 2k-5k On screen polys a second, all 16bit RGB
textures/RGB Shaded, 32Bit Zbuffered, subPixel/Texel/Perspective
correct, With 2-3 (And even 5x in portal scene) overdraw.
Software is however (currently =) lacking Bilinear filtering and
MipMapping.

FAQ:
-What is needed to run this demo?
For DOS software: P166, 20M (maybe 24?) RAM, smartdrv,VBE20 Drivers
For WIN software: P166, 16M (But swap heaven) RAM, DirectX 3.0+
For DOS/WIN 3DFX: Any pentium. a 3DFX, Glide 2.3 and up.
-Colors seem washed out on 3DFX
Turn your monitor contrast all the way up, and your brightness to
about 10%-30%
-Why doesnt my soundcard work?
If you are runing the dos version, make shure your sound cards IRQ
is below 7. Unfortunately I could not link with Pmodew because of
Glide. If you dont have a 3DFX card, you can always try linking
with Pmodew.
-What Keys are there during the demo
During the actual demo, there are only 2. "P" takes a screenshot
and "Q" quits.
-Why do I get "VXD Version 1.2 expected, found 1.1"
Your fxmemmap.vxd is outdated, get a new one from WWW.3DFX.COM
-I have a voodoo rush, why wont it work?
We included a glide2x.dll so that you wouldnt get a nasty DLL
not found error if you didnt have a 3dfx. Make shure to erase
this if you do have a 3dfx.
-I have an S3 Video card, why are the colors messed up under windows?
Unfortunately we currently only support 565 compatible drivers. So
far, S3 drivers cards are the only ones to unfortunately have this
bug. Im not sure if the DX5 drivers fix this. In either case, email
me and as soon as I fix this, I will send you a patched up exe if
you would like.
-I downloaded DX5, but now all my Games and this demo locks up?!
You probably have a GUS PnP (like me). Unfortunately, Gravis
seems to really suck when it comes to driver support. Please
Storm them with emails, and hopefully they will give you a
better response than they gave me one month ago.
-Any sekrit parts in the demo?
Maybe =)
