The following is a note for D2X about updating the dlls for it. It works great for me. I haven't tried Descent3 lately, you might ask on www.descentbb.net rms >> I just downloaded and tried D2x 0.2.3, and it works amazing. >> The texture problems I reported a while back are gone and it >> runs like a charm. The only problem I'm having is that at >> least the OpenGL version is giving me some lagging audio. > > that happens to everyone (on windows)... I have no idea why > (yet) I had that exact problem on my WinXP box with CygWin compiling d2x, both 0.2.0 and 0.2.4 versions. It went away when I downloaded and installed the latest SDL.DLL binary for win32 from libsdl.org. I replaced every copy of the DLL I had on my hard drive. I didn't try that initially because compiling d2x seems to require having the SDL source code with its sdl-config script. I kept the SDL source so I can re-compile d2x, but I use the binary distribution of SDL.DLL. I also had the same problem of only being able to run d2x-sdl.exe once before having to reboot. And it crashed a LOT. The new DLL fixed that too.
