Beta3b-gl Update ---------------- The beta3b-gl release found in this archive is identical to the beta3b released earlier, with the exception that a new OpenGL ICD is included that fixes a few bugs exposed by an upcoming public Quake 3 release. Bug fix details: (1) Fixed a bug where multiple contexts could not render to the same drawable (2) Fixed a bug in loading large textures (>= 2M) which would cause the system to hang (3) Fixed a problem in texture generation. (4) Fixed a problem in clipping against the top or left edges of a window (5) Fixed a bunch of Q3 related bugs We have also implemented a workaround for the Half Life menu bug. If you have trouble seeing the main menu in Half Life when running at 640x480 resolution, do the following: Work around: "set PageFlip=0" in environment or regedit: Rendition->s.w.->opengl->(dword)PageFlip=0, however there's a performance penalty. A more general fix is still in the works. Another Half Life tweak: gl_polyoffset 16 (in the half-life console*) will alleviate the z-fighting problems for decals. *Enable by running halflife with "-console" argument. The following are known bugs with this driver and Quake 3: 1* Color depth switching problem: Changing r_colorbits from 0 (default) may cause problems on win98. 2* Wireframe's missing: r_showtris fails to show a majority of wireframes unless r_drawstrips is enabled. 3* Powersave problems: Intermittent hangs when returning from powersave/suspend mode. 4* Texture problem: With r_texturebits set to 32 (regardless of desktop bpp), the bubble-textured wall in compliance.bsp looks bisected horizontally. 5* Context switching problem: Possible hang when alternating with Q3 and the desktop via alt-tab. We are aware of these issues, but welcome feedback on these and others. Please post your comments into the Rendition support forums found at news://news.rendition.com/rendition.support. The beta4 driver which will feature new D3D and 2D fixes is fast approaching, but we wanted to release these GL fixes ASAP for your Quake 3 fragging enjoyment. So frag on...
