  1. Nice, this reminds me of Full Moon Fever (a mission I think of very highly).

  2. Oh my god! This is Windows VM inside a goddamn M1 macbook! There are tons of shader errors BTW, most of them are probably false issues, but I guess I should review them.

  3. I'm likely going to shelf this one, given there isn't much support from anyone else while any method of implementing it properly is beyond my knowledge. I did want to suggest one more idea that came to mind first, which would have multiple uses and also be per-map without inducing changes by default. Could we get ambiental blur with an ambient light or fog light texture designed to support blurring by distance? It would require a custom fog shader if one is possible for this purpose, but this approach would allow mappers to add and customize it to their own liking and do so per area. It can for example be used underwater to make it more blurry the lower it goes, in places like a cold cave or refrigerator, or to simulate blurry mist which in some cases appears to be a thing you can see with the naked eye early in the morning. A nice photo to go with the later idea... it's not DOF per say but shows how mist with a little background blur can make sense, blur and color intensity could be adjusted separately so anyone can tweak it to their desired purpose.

  4. This is very unfinished work in progress. It's coming along nicely though. There are 5 ways in and out of this room.

  6. Try setting r_useNewBackend "0" in darkmod.cfg and set Color Depth to 32-bit under Video Settings > Advanced in the GUI If you still have render issues, please hold down CTRL+ALT+DELETE then type condump graphic_glitch.txt in the prompt and gather the resulting file from your darkmod directory.

  7. well the old operating systems could actually run on modern pc's if it wasnt for a few snags... there are no sata drivers for them (yes you are f.... by now so no need to go further), no GFX or soundcard drivers as well. Luckily you can still get some 3rd hand used hardware for peanuts that supports the above, go for a mainboard with AGP to get the best compatibility, but you can actually run 98 on a core2 with the PCIE gen2 if you can find an lga 775 board with the old PATA header you are golden, still need to be carefull with gfx cards but the old geforce 6 or 700 models still had win9x drivers even for PCIE. try to get your hands on one of the older soundblaster cards preferably one using a PCI socket. Remember win9x cannot use ram above 3gb so put no more than 4gb in the board as it would be a waste, also fat32 has some restrictions on harddrive size though most PATA models should be ok to use. Something like the above was the last win9x machine i had and except the fact that drivers had to be installed in the correct order (if you dont it will crash and you can start all over again) and you had to be carefull with some software also (around that time microsoft enforced driver signing you might guess why after you tried this setup). It was fast though really really Really fast when it worked...

We used to call that "extortion".
