Nice Work Gary !
Can you add a small "How to use" readme file to the Thunder GL ?
Thanks.
Radu.

Hi.
You can found the readme at archive/DOC/ThunderGL/english.txt
The help to the configuration file is stored in the default config, in the end of the file (#-ed) (archive/ThunderGL + MOD/ThunderGL.ini)
Please note that you should copy every file from the "ThunderGL + MOD" directory.
If you has a question that isnt answeered in these files, then ask it here.
Please note that using a few command in the ini (like the GPU= line) may will cause bugs, some stuffs not fully implemented yet. I will fix it in the next relase.

ThunderGL 0.17 Adds large texture support for PowerVR Kyro cards.

r21vo · 04 March 2007, 13:28:34

Awesome! Although i don't have any kyros

Geri · 04 March 2007, 13:56:48

PowerVR is the powah ;>

I hope you focus in Voodoo and Kyro (and maybe Savage), but nothing else 'cause they need full attention. If you manage to speed up CoD, Quake 4 & Co. on Voodoo5, it would be awesome!

Nice work Geri !
I tested the ThunderGL, and the speed improvements in some games it's really amazing !
I'm impressed.
Can you name a tool or program witch can show the ThunderGL extensions that you have implemented ?
Are you working on the texture compression too ?

Radu.

m14radu · 04 March 2007, 21:06:18

here is the program.
http://www.realtech-vr.com/glview/extensions.html
first run the Tool and pay attentions to the core Features.
Afterthat, put in the program directory the ThunderGL files ( like in Geri readme.txt file ), and run the Tool again. Notice the difference

Great work !

Geri · 04 March 2007, 23:01:50

m14radu: yes, that prog can show the new features very hardly

Before:

After:
