Wrapper's not quite finished yet, needs more work but it works a treat.

NOTE: If you only have a 128MB R[V]3x0 based card like me, I'd recommend setting a 256MB AGP Aperture in the BIOS, as the Ruby demo uses 250MB of VRAM and that's with 4:1 compression!!!

EDIT: Link to real-time demo's.

*Look's woefully at my 9600

What do you think that could do?

[Richard M]

I have a 9600XT, I'm going to try it when I get home from work.

Runs nicely on my 9800 PRO modded to 405MHz/756MHz

Got a VGA Silencer and Tweakmonster RAM-sinks slapped on that baby!

Well running the movie I get a frame every 3 seconds

IS the other one worth trying?

HOLY **** I just lower the res, turn off v-sync and I'm getting fluid motion - in parts.

Any other things I could try?

Open Sushi.ini with Notepad and change multisampleType to =1

Looks like there's a new wrapper on it's way:



Notice the quality of her skin is higher and the 'depth of field' effect is now in full effect

All the problem shaders have been multipassed. All of them but one should produce the same output as the long shaders used by the X800. The one that wont be the same is the one for the Cornea Reflections on Ruby's eyes. Things will be a bit different for that one, but it shouldn't be hugely different.
