I was asked today for a fix for freeware 1.2.4 (build 907) version, so I thought I'll leave this here. The offset in this version is different and it's FD83Ah. crc.exe [crc32: E61D7602] FD83Ah: 80 => 20

Anachronox uses WickedGL 3.02 (Demo version), developed by Metabyte Inc., hence the name of the dll.

I'm guessing that those are generally Pentium 4 clock speeds? All tests were performed on Intel C2D (Wolfdale). Athlon XPs bring a bit of confusion due to their higher efficiency per clock and that whole rating system to make them look more marketable next to the P4s, let alone other newer, more …

There will always be confusion about 3dfx-MiniGL because both sides forgot to use the word "direct" or "native" when describing it. Simply, don't use these phrases: "MiniGL = Glide" <- not true because Glide isn't natively implemented "MiniGL != Glide" <- also not true because it allows you to play …

all redirect to Glide The thing is they don't. OpenGL(original)/DDraw/D3D stuff isn't redirected to Glide (check DLLs' dependencies). The only driver that wraps a subset of OpenGL functions to Glide is 3dfx-MiniGL which later evolved into 3dfx-ICD. which is just wrong You know what's wrong? Your …

Do you see the difference between directly accessing the Glide files and going through the wrapping stage? I didn't argue with MiniGL wrapping to Glide (their OpenGL ICD is probably analogical), but it still isn't the same and those games shouldn't be in Glide only lists. It may matter for your …
