Hi all.
Just thought to contribute a little.
Viper Racing trees and some other misc objects, cannot display the textures properly.
This happens with every SFFT alpha drivers including 29.
I have a Voodoo 5 5500 AGP, and in drivers installation i used the set DX8 tool, but if i use set DX7, the same happens.
It looks like this:

Hi all.

Half-life 1 (Steam) and mods (cs, dod, tfc) don't work with AmigaMerlin 3.1 R11 + DXTN.DLL. The game doesn't start, just crashes immediately to the desktop without any error messages.

But it works fine with WickedGL 3.02 (but no FSAA), but when online, the servers think it's a cheat and the game get locked (VAC ban).

With MesaFX 6.2.0.2 the game is displayed correctly (albeit much slower than wickedGL) but without the mouse pointer...

My system:

Athlon 2000+
Soyo K7VTA motherboard
VIA KT133a chipset
640 MB of PC133 SDRAM
Voodoo5 5500 AGP (AmigaMerlin 3.1 r11 + downloaded DXTN.DLL)
Windows XP SP2

Any help?

PS: HL1 worked fine with amigamerlin 2.5 and 3.0 both on a voodoo3 or voodoo5 (except for day of defeat, which required wickedgl or mesafx).

Thanks and keep the good work!
DT

Kid, you've made 3 posts, all of which were the same question in different forums.  That's called crossposting, don't do it;  it's a big nono, and don't be surprised if it leads to some severe censure.

wish that it was true.I have asked myself,they have basically told the me thing I hate the most: go and buy yourself a new graphics card [xx(].luckily,one user was kind enough to report that WGL will work fine if you replace the opengl32.dll in the system folder (no VAC ban).do NOT put any dlls it the steam folder,this will get you BANNED (at least they said so).I would like to be proven wrong on this,but I wont test it myself,as I dont want to risk my precious account (got it working after a MONTH of steam pain),and unfortunatelly,I dont know how to generate accounts for free (maybe a bit illegal,but hey,valve has robbed me so what,they would deserve it).

one last thing: its not like me to say bad stuff about people and forums,but dont even TRY to ask anything on the steam forum.its full of the most ignorant,intolerant and abusive people I have ever seen.you really dont want to deal with them (example: you have a problem with your account,which is very common,considering how buggy steam is.so you will post in the proper support forum.first,10 "steam is working fine for me" idiots come and laugh at you.after that,a moderator will come with the same old universal answer: send a "support ticket" to valve.you will probably complain a bit that you dont want to wait 5 weeks for an answer.bad move agent,you have just complained about steam,and violated the steam EULA.your thread gets deleted,and your ability post removed.in short words,half life 1 is one of my favorite games,but for doing steam,I hope valve will burn in hell[:(!])..

@moderator: remove the second part if you think I was too harsh;)

@ps47,

I agree with your opinion's whole heartedly, steam is a terrible solution to game pirating and if all gaming developers imposed a similar system IMHO it would/will ruin the PC game experience.

Valve has a great track record of making very high quality games but steam is a joke ;)

tried to post the question on the steam forum,guess what.I got framed for cheating,and still no answer.that forum is USELESS.wonder how they pick moderators,dumb&dumber contest? they cant even answer a simple question (if VAC1 is scanning the drive or not),so WTH are they calling themselves a "support forum" if there is no suport at all.I need a drink.

edit: seems like you were right after all.looks like VAC is smart enough to see that Wickedgl is not a hack.umm,is someone going to try it out? [:I]

and one last small thing: the most useless recommendation of the year.wooo,go steam mods!

kaneda-san

well i tried and i dint get banned so i think its safe :D...

VAC bans are delayed,but if its running ok for one week or more it should be all right..you have wickedgl in the steam folder,right?

ok,VAC doesnt even scan the harddrive (only the memory) so I would say chances that you will be banned because of using wickedgl are less than 1%.modifying the helppage;) (and enough OT,this is the SFFT driver thread[:I])
