Hey hey calm down a little there, up until the R300 ATI has been on the forefront for implementing new features on their chips like: - 3d textures. NVidia only came up with those in the FX5 series, ati had them already in the Radeon7500. - Multi render target support. ATI r300 can do it, NVidia FX5 series cannot. - Floating point textures. ATI r300 can do it perfectly, NVidia FX5 series is limited to TEXTURE_RECTANGLE. ... ATI their Linux drivers are a crippled bunch, that's for a fact, and that's a big reason why open source r300 drivers get so much attention. But don't offend their chip designers :) -- Wladimir Ogre3D Team (http://www.ogre3d.org) ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
