    Rice Video Plugin 6.0.0 Released!

    in Emulator Releases [/emu]

    Posted

    Rice Video plugin is based on source from original Daedalus plugin made by StrmnNrmn. (N64 emulator plugin)

     

    • Software vertex clipper problem fixes.
       
    • OpenGL fragment program extension (Pixel shader in OpenGL)
       
    • An optional Z coordinate hack for the near plane clipping problems in some games without using near plane vertex clipping

    OpenGL finally gets to similar degree as DirectX. It is actually faster on my PC because I don't have to use software vertex clipper with it. OpenGL will do the vertex clipping. It still does not support frame buffer effects yet.

     

    But, in order to use the new OpenGL pixel shader feature, you need to good video card to support OpenGL ARB_Fragment_Program extension. Radeon 9500 and better from ATI, and FX 5200 and better from Nvida will do it.

     

    I have no plan to support frame buffer effects in OpenGL, and I will take a long break from this project after this release.

    well since paypal deals with transfering money they gotta hav that kinda of stuff for security reasons to prevent hackers or wutnot, if there was a way to bypass it, it would probably be illegal such an expert hacking into the system..

     

    can always prevent this from happening again by keeping a record of it in a safe place :P

    ATI Radeon X800 series

    in Gossip Café [/offtopic]

    - Radeon X850 XT and X850 XT PE are the extreme gamers cards. They lead in performance and if there's no budget, put this up there with the 6800 Ultra. Of course, ATI says we'll be able to find these on shelves in time to put them in gift boxes for the holiday season, which would tip the scales in ATI's favor, especially if 6800 Ultra cards are still going for extremely high prices and the new X850 XT and XT PE debut at MSRP.

     

    - Radeon X800 XL is an interesting price point. It hits a spot between the current X800 Pro and the 6800 GT. ATI really needs a $400 price point offering, but dropping something between 300 and 400 may help out consumers who don't have the budget for anything more.

     

    - Radeon X800 will take the place of the X700 XT and really negates the need for anything else at a $250 price point. This is a good answer to NVIDIA's 6800 non-ultra product, if they ever make it into the same platform space.

    :afro:...850 sells for $492
