I did some testing of a few opengl games, just for fun and by curiosity. Card is nv25 (64mb vram). - works perfectly openarena tremulous xmoto frozen-bubble hedgewars neverball supertux2 - works with some problems * teeworlds : perfect after a hack to workaround this issue : nv04_surface.c:246: nv04_surface_copy_swizzle: Assertion `!(dst->offset & 63)' failed. * foobillard : works but this error shows up : Mesa: User error: GL_STACK_OVERFLOW in glPushMatrix(mode=GL_TEXTURE, unit=0) * etracer : first few seconds are very very slow, then its still very slow compared to all the other games. Also some texture problems after a recent change. * bzflag : full screen mode broken but window mode ok. Fonts look weird (apparently some random corruptions) - fails glest : needs mesa 1.3 I think it's pretty good overall :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Mesa3d-dev mailing list Mesa3d-dev@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mesa3d-dev
