neverball running only software-accelerated

dp · 2004-12-06 15:19:52

something very strange ... while other apps are using hardware acceleration, neverball (the game) runs for me only in software 3d ... and this leads in a non-playable game

can anybody check if i'm the only one having this?

does the same for me (i think) as it kicks my cpu usage up to like 180% (P4 HT) and starts running really hot...

i think it needs to be run in full screen mode or something...

it runs a faster in my p3-450 with 3d acceleration than in my p3-800 without 3d accel. So some acceleration is there, but few of it

thanx for confirmation ... any idea what is wrong?

i think its badly coded.....
it kicks the crap out of my 3.06 GHz P4 w/ HT and 512MB ram with GeforceFXGo laptop.... and world of warcraft/warcraft 3 (only games i play reqularly) have no isses, not even heat

i don't think, that it is badly coded, as it runs fine on my old 266Mhz (radeon 7500 64MB) on slack but runs extremely slow on the laptop (2GHz - almost same graphics) ... so i guess, it must be something with mesa and using software instead of hardware accelleration
