Nels Bruckner of Dynamix
updated his .plan
with some more word on the v1.6 update of TRIBES which should be including a lot of
changes to the OpenGL part of the code. Surprisingly the Savage4 card of all things is a
big performer.
The end result will hopefully be that no one with a
TNT-based accelerator will have to run Tribes in software mode (yeah!). In fact, initial
reports from our QA department indicate that the TNT performance is now very comparable to
the Glide performance in earlier versions. Performance on other manufacturer's cards is a
mixed lot, depending quite heavily on the state of thier drivers
