Salut/Hi rms, le/on Thu, 06 Nov 2003 17:31:30 GMT, tu disais/you said:- >You can play Descent1 & 2 on new machines. What's needed are the recompiled >executables, with frame-capping enabled. >http://reprehensible.net/~donut/d1x/ >http://icculus.org/d2x/ > >Just ask if you need more info. Descent3 should work as is I believe. Could you please be a bit more explicit. I also find that D2 and D1 (both commercial versions, Descent II is v1.2) are difficult to play on my 2GHz machine. I looked at the icculus site and found references to the shareware version and also to a 1.x>1.2 patch. Is that what you meant? -- All the Best Ian Hoare Sometimes oi just sits and thinks Sometimes oi just sits.
