- in a word
- ──────────────────
-
- - PC 386DX or higher. (Pentium preferred)
- - MSDOS 3.30 or higher. (no windows).
- - 384Kb (?) of conventionnal memory.
- - 1700Kb of extended memory free. (32bits RAM suggested)
- - no himem, no emm386 (BUT works fine with them although in pure mode,
- you earn 5% of speed, so prefer this mode).
- - VGA 256 colours. (SVGA preferred)
- - Sound card : Silence/SB/SBpro/SB16/Wss/Pas/Pas+/Pas16/Gravis.
- Valid environment variable (BLASTER or ULTRASND) must be correctly
- set. (If they aren't, you probably notice that few demos correctly
- run on your machine).
-
- To run this demo, type DX.EXE and watch. If you encounter
- problems read below. There is no very special memory configuration.
-
- Troubleshoot...
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
-
- if it fails, check theses points :
-
- - Do you have windows running in background ?
- - Are you running on a 386 or higher ?
- - Do you have enough extended memory ?
- - Do you use EMM386.EXE with options NOEMS or with xxxx RAM and
- xxxx is value < 2000 ?
- - Do you have a sound card correctly installed ? (this means
- you had correctly installed the installation disks, a BLASTER
- environnement variable and eventually some drivers installed).
- - Do you a 512Kb SVGA card ?
-
- The best test is to try to run DOOM(tm) (from Id Software). If
- DOOM runs, this demo will run.
-
-
- By the way here is the standard of PC when writing this doc :
-
- In mid-1995, Press says about PC Standard :
-
- SVM " .. the standard is a 486DX/4-100Mhz"
-
- PC Expert " .. Pentium 60Mhz are no more tested, only Pentium 75Mhz
- are now the new standard".
-
- PC Direct " .. Intel Stops 486DX33 productions and soon 486DX2/66".
-
- Intel announces the newest P6 processor ...

-
- About this demo ...
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- Features :
-
- - Flat, Gouraud, Metal and Phong shading.
- - Morphing mapping, Glenz Mapping, Phong mapping.
- - Motion blur, 24Bit Space color emulation (Real Color Dither(tm))
- - >3000 vertices objects (from LightWave/PC and 3DSv4)
- - Realtime smooth animations.
- - Bspline animations.
- - Cool background drawn under Photoshop v3.00.
- - ][ Dolby Surround Digital FX.
- - Gravis, SB support with synchronized cool music.
- - 486/Pentium optimizations.
-
- - overscan SVGA 640x480x8Bit FS/LFB support.
- At least, the world first SVGA demo ever seen in a demo compos)
-
- > VBE 2.00 Support (with Univbe 5.0+, transfert are triple
- faster (verified)). (works with older version of VESA)
-
- > Extended DAC support (8bit color precision instead of
- the classical 6bit color) (feature supported on few cards :(
-
- > PCI Burst mode optimisation.
-
- > Some other video cards are available, don't even think
- about running this demo on a non-VLB video card,
- it would really crawl. (on a 386DX40 - Tseng ET4000, only 1fps-5fps,
- but on a PCI, about 35fps see more in FS Burst mode.)
