While my SAM440 has HD7750 and a full Enhancer, it has only 1GB RAM. I was hoping for some fun with testing with the lowest possible settings...:(

...others anyway, have fun!

@kas1e

Yeah I know Wazp3D is slow but now I know the game stars OK and the problem was lack of W3D_SI.
SAM440 & HD7750 & Enhancer 2.1

@corto

It didn't cross my mind to look at the Extras ...but it turned out that this file from github is ok, too.

@corto, kas1e

Oh my, I forgot about that War3D_SI, that I do not have it
Wazp3D did the trick enough to see that game starts. Intro is OK and the rest of the game has wrong colors and is sloooow. But it works

Hi,
I bought GF Remastered and then realized it is not supported. I hope they will add it later.
Grim Fandango (original) runs fine on my PC laptop but does not start om my SAM440&HD7750. It complains about lack of "grim-patch.lab" file but there is no such file on my PC. Here is a list of files in my SAM directory:

CREDITS.LAB DATA000.LAB DATA001.LAB DATA002.LAB
DATA003.LAB DATA004.LAB gfupd101.exe GRIM.EXE
GrimFandango.EXE MOVIE00.LAB MOVIE01.LAB

VOX0001.LAB VOX0002.LAB VOX0003.LAB VOX0004.LAB
YEAR0MUS.LAB YEAR1MUS.LAB YEAR2MUS.LAB YEAR3MUS.LAB
YEAR4MUS.LAB

I found such file on a github but then ScummVM 2.5.1 (default setings) "failed to create MiniGL context". If I change to OpenGL graphic ->"OpenGLGraphicsManager::endGFXTransaction: Could not load any graphics mode"
Files veryfication went fine, other games runs. Any help?

@Spectre660

Does anyone test it on SAM440?

Hi, I have two crashes with Emotion player. Both easy to reproduce. The first one is skipable.
First one is when I try to tick "Hide window border" and then "Window on Top"
It's OK on X1000 and X5000:

@amigakit

Sounds intriguing

Since you are here Can we expect some info about A1222plus?

@amigakit

Quote:

Fully agreed.

As for the rest of your post - sounds ok for me.

I know it's risky but can you give any rough timing?

Thank you.

@Amigo1

The price is over 88 euros plus taxes and my concerns have nothing to do with the X1000. 3D Nova is fun but has limited use due to the lack of 3D software and the nature of my very poor hardware. The reason I decided to buy the ES2.0 was the UVD support and respect for the developers. I knew this was only for Polaris cards, but I was hoping that the SI ​​cards would be added later.
Looks like I'll have to buy a full V54 just to get that goddamn UVD.
All this means that when I bought the ES2.0 I got much less than the Polaris users.

@amigakit

ES2.0 includes UVD support for RX cards. So, Polaris card owners got it for the price of the ES2.0 package. I already have ES2.1 and an SI card. Will I have to pay again to get UVD support?

@nbache

I didn't even think about it. There is an "Auto" button but it does nothing. The OSD menu shows that something can "scale" but is inactive so I think this model does not have such a function. Thanks anyway, you were close :)

@kas1e

Yeah, all 640x480 look the same...all above are scrambled. Nevermind, its OK as it is now :)

@kas1e

Quote:

I mean, I choose 640x480 but monitor native resolution is 1920x1200. So to cover the whole area three monitor pixels are used to show one game pixel. That makes it blury. I thought about using smaller part of the monitor. I don't know if I explained it well .

Working good. The only major drawback is the 640x480 screen streched to 1920x1200 size looks blury. Is it possible to not to scale it up....with black borders o sth?

@kas1e

Sure, I have read readme but couldn't hear any SFX even with a high volume. Ok, I will play more with it.

@kas1e

Working good I use a modified EVO theme and gadgets don't fit, still. Luckily, they are visible and working.
CD audio works but I can't hear sound FXs during a game...or maybe music exludes SFXs?

@kas1e

Nice! Is it possible to increase the size of a window, in a WB mode?
Max is 800x600.

I will test the patch later...

Suddenly, the initial crash has gone :-O I'm 100% sure it was with the new version, too.

But more important is, it consumes 100% CPU immediately after start and all the time. So smooth painting is no go on my SAM440 HD7750.

@amigakit

Due to my ignorance of the subject, I asked the wrong question...
so, once again. Do I have to buy DVPlayer to get the UVD Southern Islands driver for VA Lib? I have ES2.1.

Quote:

Usually I do not install such replacements so I had to install it now.
While shift+LMB works fine, Polish catalogs do not. During the installation a message came out. RAWBinfo will be disabled but it was removed from WBStartup. Should be unticked, not removed. Plus, InfoWB was not ticked.

A quick test (only 3 films) done by one of the users showed DVPlayer is unable to play 4K vids ("unable to display") while Emotion play them OK.
My SAM440/HD7750 is waiting. 720p is OK for my needs but why RX owners gets more for the buck than SI owners? And why a bundle VA.lib with DVPlayer. If I'm forced to buy this library I prefer to buy it separately and then the Emotion...
...and in 2022, System54 (a new name for ES3.0 IMO;)) with the same library and DVPlayer,again.
Anyway, at least there is a confirmation, UVD for SI is in the works because pobably, we won't be able to use RXs in our little SAMs.

BTW. I'm a registered user of a previous DVplayer.
