Duke Nukem 3D - Land of the Babes (underwater problem) over Pete

spajdr · March 10th, 2003

If im under water,there is big line,which slowly moving up then down.
I altered framebuffer access and textures,because it was very slow (like 10-15fps) but it didnt help,only speeded it up.

Some framebuffer effects cannot be done correctly with hardware acceleration. Try to set FBT to "emulated vram" (lowest) and FBA to "FVP" (highest).

Tried,but still same problem,besides this problem is also on Pete Soft GPU plugin,Peops and E)I(,all show this rolling line.

**Pete Bernert** · March 12th, 2003

well, if each and every plugin is showing this effect, the chances are high that it's a main emu bug.

spajdr · March 12th, 2003

hmm .. ok

so Epsxe,PSXeven and PCSX have this emu bug,since all show this weirdo error

spajdr · March 12th, 2003

Actually kazzuya soft plugin didnt show this error ...

**Pete Bernert** · March 12th, 2003

good, play it with Kazz's plugin, then

spajdr · March 13th, 2003

Its not playable

move buttons,when you move lets say right or left,then its stuck to left and you cant stop it,also sometimes some weird polygon show on left or right side.

You might wanna consider posting your video settings,so we can figure it out.Are you using the latest drivers for your graphic hardware?

Dukelord : Since im moderator of software (graphic drivers) forum (not here) then yes im using latest drivers for my graphic card,and what video settings,that doesnt matter,i tried all settings.Only Framebuffer textures and Framebuffer Access only change water effect (more ugly or a little better) special game fixes didnt change anything,just some settings makes game slow and more flickering polygons occurs.

I realize over three years have passed, but if anyone is able to get the underwater scenes in this game to work, I would be grateful to know what plugins and settings you are using. I'm unfortunately having the same problem.

I'm also seeing a more minor issue where cutscenes sometimes abruptly end before dialogue finishes. Has anyone else experienced that?

I've tried Pete's and Peops GPU plugins.

usually in this case it's better to make a new thread

but, it apparently works with Kazzyua's plugin so use that.
