Yeah i'm checking and the price for this product (GeForce GTX 460) is too expensive, near to double. So i think gtx9800 or 250 is the best (just about 165 -175 dollars)

And could i run poly fine with the system specifications pointed before?, u know, maps like those on Eternity ,etc.

[Stabs]

run with the gts250 if you can, its basically a more updated version of the 9800gtx

I'd also note that you can tell something isn't right because the HUD model doesn't appear to have any lighting applied to it at all...

Looks like the texture above the door is outdated. It was polymerized long time ago. I'd gladly doublechecked it but I don't recognize this map...

Actually thanks to The_Commander I've looked at this room in e1l2 and have to say that you don't have polymer HRP or it's very outdated:

Not sure if you care about it, but what you have there is either very outdated or not working properly.
But then again, with a geforce 6100, the newest version of polymer wouldn't probably run decent anyway.
But I'm just enforcing what has been said above, to confirm that what you are showing in that screenshot looks very outdated/broken.
There are no bumpmaps and the lighting is too bright.
Roma Loom's screenshot shows how the latest version of polymer looks like.

I instantly recognized the door the second I saw it.
I've seen every door and every level of Duke 3D from all possible angles hundreds of times.
I would even recognize areas of duke 3d if they were untextured.

All I know is it looks real good to me compared to what I've been use to seeing all these years. An this......

Your eduke version will soon be a year old, and your HRP is out of date.
Update your shit.

Dude, with a 6100 and with winxp sp1 the latest HRP would lag like shit.
The more you have, the more you want. If he's happy with that old version I think it can only mean good news for him. If that old version looks awesome for him and it also runs decent on his 6100, I think is better than have the latest version lag like shit.
I've tried the latest hrp with polymer on a 6600gt for the fuck of it, and it lags like shit on xp sp3 and win 7 x64. So imagine how a win xp sp1 with a 6100 would run the latest version...
I don't even want to think about it.

He should at least get the latest eduke32.exe, though, because it will actually run better than the one from a year ago. Also, Polymer with no HRP doesn't look half bad.

That's OK, but just as a note, around August the new builds came into effect that supported HUD lighting and, for a lot of people, some pretty impressive performance improvements.

Definitely update to the newest release in Norvak's post above!

Run DNF with and integrated geforce 6100 on winxp sp1? Are you on ethnobotanical supplements mate?
If the game will come out as a multiplatform game, they will most likely optimize it for multicore cpu's and make it require at least an 8800 gt and 2gb of ddr2 as it's absolute minimum requirements.
Trust me, when I tell you that nothing in this world will make a 6100 run DNF on winxp sp1.
My guess is that it won't even start due to old software to begin with and if by any chance the the os and other drivers get updated, the game will most likely error at launch due to missing shading or other rendering capabilities of that 6100.
If he has winxp sp1 and one year old eduke stuff, he most likely has outdated directx an drivers too.
That pc needs some serious update and upgrading, if he wants to even see one pixel of dnf on his screen.
And I'm saying this with absolutely no exaggeration or irony.

you can nerf the cunt out of any game

i played through unreal and ff7 back in the day on a p120 16mb of ram with no gfx acceleration it wasnt the best but it could be done and bioshit had some patch to disable shaders and let you run it on older cards and thats running on the unreal engine

some peoples definition of running fine is very different to a lot of people, personally iam a constant 60 fps man but some find 30 fine or even 15 fine

[Mike Norvak]

I hav this problem:

Eduke only works with Autoload box on

Any suggestion?

[Mike Norvak]

I made an autoload folder and delete all the textures and models ,etc. to run eduke without the HRP , is the only way i got to make it work so far, really extrange i think...

That is really strange. I wonder why no one else is having the problem.

Did you try deleting your cfg files?

Yeah, but it´s the same.

Anyways i fixed the problem. The logic solution was to reinstall everything and it works, however i wonder (like u) why the f..ck it happened...

r1736 does not want to build under my MinGW/gcc 4.3.3 setup, and I have a hunch that the problem is on my end because synthesis built just fine.

Perhaps it's time to upgrade to 4.5.1.

[Plagman]

helixhorned, what's the use case for the Makefile changes you made? How do you pass your semantic analyzer as CC? Passing make variables through the commandline should already override definitions, even if they use = instead of ?=. For example, the synthesis script uses the following commandline and it works just fine, even before your Makefile change.

make PLATFORM=WINDOWS CC='wine gcc' CXX='wine g++' AS='wine nasm' RC='wine windres' STRIP='wine strip' AR='wine ar' RANLIB='wine ranlib' PRETTY_OUTPUT=0 NEDMALLOC=0

It is a Gateway GT5228 w/Athlon 64 x2 Dual core 4200+ at 2.21 GHz w/1.87 GB Ram. I just installed Win Xp Pro on a fresh, new WD Caviar SATA 320 GB HD, so it still has SP1 untill I find out why I'm having some errors updating to SP2. BSOD is one problem after installing SP2! Had to do a system restore from before that update to get it to boot to my desktop. Damn Microshaft! I have all the latest graphic drivers as well as DX9c. Also have the latest device drivers for all my hardware, but think I may need to update the bios as a last resort if another SP2 install craps out again.

For me, putting the variables before the make command works more reliably. Specifically, when I run scan-build like this:

CC=clang RELEASE=0 scan-build make

it will analyze the code as described on their page, while using gcc will compile but not analyze, and putting the variables as arguments to make won't build.

Hendricks: it seems that your default C compiler (the CC variable) is set to Cygwin's, therefore the new Makefile tries to use it and fails.

I'll commit a fix shortly but IMO the user-dependent stuff needs to be ripped out from the 4 Makefiles into a single one.

Putting "export CC=gcc" (without the quotes) into .bashrc fixes the issue for the time being.

I didn´t find the correct topic to post this question. Well, i want to change the palete of one single texture in the whole map, it´s an skybox. Some script maybe?

Sure, nothing easier than that.

for i allsectors, { ife sector[i].floorpicnum XXX, set sector[i].floorpicnum YYY; ife sector[i].ceilingpicnum XXX set sector[i].ceilingpicnum YYY }

I think that this should go into the Mapster32 problems and bugs thread, even though it's not a bug.
