Dawn Demo and Thunderbirds Fix

NewsFactory · May 26, 2003, 10:48 AM

This just in from Rage 3D

People were unable to run the Dawn demo with the OpenGL wrapper if they had AMD Athlon Thunderbird cpus due to SSE implementation. Colourless over at Beyond3D forum has created a work around for this.

See the Rage3D ATI Dawning Page for what it is all about.

The fix requires downloading a new file which you then place in the bin directory. So go check it out.

Hey, just what I have been waiting for! Fantastic!

However, a problem remains with the demo - not many of the facial expressions work properly - get big triangles all across the screen - and selecting either points or wireframe results in crashing out of the program.

Oh well, I'm still overjoyed it works at all!
