Unfortunately, no version, including the newest one, works with the Intel HD3000. dgVoodoo2 is currently not compatible with this video adapter. At all. No game or program using DirectX 9 or below will start with it. Either nothing happens, or the program crashes with an error. It does not depend …

No idea... As I said before, the older drivers designed for Vista and Win7 (win7vista_152254.exe/win7vista_64_152254.exe), 15.22.54.2622, dated 1/21/2012, work perfectly fine with DgVoodoo (but has errors in other areas). Meanwhile, the newer ones designed for Win7, 8 & 8.1 (win32_152824.exe/win64_ …

Thanks!! I forgot about the compute shader thing, but I've just released a new WIP that should address the problem. Compute shader support is no longer required, in the worst case c64-output falls back to simple 'stretched, keep AR' scaling mode: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=1046498# …

Ok, thanks for the good news! Then I can remove that option for specialized shaders in a later version. Gen8: I think if dgv works with older gen then it should do that with Gen8 too. HD3000: If you feel like trying to discover the reason of failing dgV init with the new drivers, then you could …

Could you plz test WIP85 with HD 4000? (with DirectXExt\EnableSpecializedShaders set to true) I looked at the shaders used in the 3DMark 2k helicopter test, and I had a strong guess what the driver didn't like. I made changes to the code generator, it might help: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic. …

Does anyone have anything that could play bxn or bx2 files? I really want to extract scenes from Biko and DesBlood2, but there are no programs to do it.

Thank you! I never knew when to check or when to uncheck that "Fast video memory access" option, nor what it really does, so I always left it untouched. I'll keep an eye on that one from now on in case I stumble upon weird glitches on whatever game.

Driver side: - Checking out old drivers to see if thing is the same as with AMD drivers: old ones are working with the newest version of dgVoodoo. This did the trick for the Intel HD 3000, partially. After installing an older driver available from Intel's site for it, dated from 2012 (newest is …

Oh, then it must be the new shader code generator... What happens if you disable the DirectXExt\EnableSpecializedShaders for 2.76+? (compatibility option) That did the trick! God I feel dumb... I should investigate properly next time before posting walls of text... So, there's no issues neither …

You may want to check out if older (pre-2.55.x) versions of dgVoodoo works. This was the key. I started with dgVoodoo v2.54, and suddenly everything worked perfectly on Gen7 and Gen8. The reason I didn't test v2.54 on these chips before was that I tested it on the HD 3000 (Gen6) first, and since it …

First of all, I'm just assuming that these chipsets should work based on the following part of the dgVoodoo documentation: I've tested and run different versions of dgVoodoo2 on the following GPU's: Intel HD 2000 (feature level 10.0 only) GeForce 8600 GT (feature level 10.0 only) Intel HD 4000 …

Thanks for your reply. I rechecked the AA2 thread and the WIP versions post but didn't found anything relating to the issue with SB3, or maybe I didn't understood something. SB3 don't have "Hue" controls, so that can't be causing the texture issues in it. It also happens on my Braswell Intel HD …
