Hello,
Here goes some driver test:

ASROCK 775-Dual sata AGP
Win XP sp2
1Gb DDR2 geil
C2D e4300 @2.5GHz
V4 4800 AGP 64Mb @166MHz NOxFSAA (prototype)




- SFFT vers.1 cant launch F1 2002 Demo.
- AM 3.0 only can launch the game 16Bits.




- Beta Kools: Impressive performance. Practly double SFFT driver performance.




- Only SFFT driver can handle this game. Older SFFT drivers restart the pc.




- Only news SFFT drivers launch the driver without texture errors.




- Older drivers need 3D-Analyze for lauching the game. New SFFT driver dont need 3D-A for this demo.

ps. Next week will do some new test with differents drivers and news Demos.

Good work Oscar, that's exhaustive testing! :D

Is there some particular game that I could test on a V3 2000?

PS: I didn't knew there was a V4 4800 [:0]

Great Work Mate !

These results shows that the drivers can still be improved.

Btw: Would be nice to see the drivers differece with a V5 5500 and 6000 !

Follow your dreams !

SFFT: kudos for still developing for the scene 8 years after the fall oof the legend.
Guys,
Thes new SFFT 1.0 sucks in Glide mode with my Unreal Tournament 1999
At 1920X1200 on my Dell 2407wfp it gives lousy results. There are shakings, and electric vibrating lines across the screen. When trying to exit the game, the pc stucks with 4bit colours and then restart itself !

I ran te same Glide mode with Amigamerlin 3.1 R11 (https://www.3dfxzone.it/dir/3dfx/voodoo5/drivers/voodoo45/windowsxp/) and could get smooth 1600x1200 playback at 30+ FPS !

In Direct 3D mode, this new SFFT 1.0 gives exactly the same framerate at 1920X1200, Dell's 2407WFP native resolution at 26 FPS, EXACTLY what I got from Amigamerlin's 3.1 R11 driver, so there is not even 1FPS more :(

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
BUT this is how it all looks at an amazing 39 FPS on 1920x1200 & 4xFSAA after modded to the bone on my voodoo 5 project machine):

Unreal Tournament(1) 1999

CPU: Intel P III-S Tualatin 1130@1400mhz

GPU: Vodooo 5 5500 @ Stock 166mhz(BIOS 1.18B Amigamerlin 3.11R Driver) 1920x1200 Full Scene Anti Aliasing x4 @ 39 FPS

THIS IS MY VOODOO PROJECT PAGE AND the best cooling in the world for it made in May 2008 !http://www.iopanel.net/forum/thread12920.html

How does it look ? :) like this;

@ Alex.Turovsky

Very interesting, any chance for a translation to English ?

Well - that is really nice and all, alex.turovsky, but I don't see any antialiasing being done in that screenshot, neiter vertically, nor horisontally.

BTW - nice mod posted there on your forum. An english translation would be even better. :-)
 

kalte

Nice mod from alex.turovsky, it would be nice to see that V5 running on a newer system, like an Athlon XP or a Core2.

I remembered that I have Vampire the Masquerade: Redemtion lying somewhere my house. Is it worth testing it?
