Ultimate Vcard Demo Links

[Cowboy X]

I realize that this is something many people would want ............... a one-stop listing of realtime 3d videocard demos . So I copied and pasted this from one of my posts in an earlier thread and will try to keep it updated with help from the forum members .

This is interesting because it does a few direct X 9.0 features using Direct X 8.0 shaders ( version 1.1 ) .

It's a few posts up ;)


Edit :Some guys over at Rage3d have been working on getting the NV35 Dusk demo to work but so far have only been able to do it by inserting Dusk's textures into the original Dawn demo . When it is a little more concrete I'll post a link . .

Here is a thread detailing the new ATI DX9 demo .......... Ruby

http://www.ati.com/developer/demos/rx800.html

The beyond3d thread also has a wrapper to allow any users of DX9 capable vcards to run the demo rather than just ATI R420 owners .

Edit : Readme http://www.users.on.net/triforce/ruby/r300readme.txt

If you have a X800 you can run it as an executable . If not you need to download a mpeg or quicktime video . ( credit to [H] where I saw the link )

[micamica1217]

first vote for a demo sticky... :attn:

nice job cowboy.

mica

[bojangles]

maybe put them all in one new thread so it can be stickied... just a thought

[Mito]

GREAT!!!!!

Thanks COWBOY!!!

To all the guys that said thanks .............. no problem , you are welcome .

[Cowboy X]

Bump .

[Albuquerque]

w00t Bumpage! I hate that I need to create an account to grab the Matrox reef demo, but it's probably worth it :)

[Darkstorm_13]

nice, this is a giant list of links for me to check out.

[Cowboy X]

More of Ruby : http://ati.com/ruby/index.html

X850 demos : http://www.ati.com/developer/demos/rx850.html

Nvidia Demos should now come from this link ( the old one is now dead ) :

http://nzone.com/object/nzone_downloads_nvidia.html

[hUMANbEATbOX]

this needs to be a sticky. everytime i think of demos, its buried and i forget this thread. i think it should be front and center, as lots of people are getting new cards lately, and everyone like goodies to test em out with.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK COWBOY X!

[Cowboy X]

Here is another cool demo :

http://www.nesnausk.org/inoutside/Demo.php

Requirements " * DirectX 9.0c runtime installed.
* Video card that supports pixel shaders 2.0 and has at least 64MB memory
o Radeon 9500 or GeForce FX5200 minimum.
o Radeon 9800, GeForce 6600 or better recommended, with 128MB.
o On slower cards or 64MB ones, don't go to very high resolutions; use 1024x768 or 800x600 or even 640x480 for the very low-end.
o On GeForce6800 or Radeon X800, use high resolutions and turn on anti-aliasing. It should look good!
Tested and seems to work on:
o GeForce 6800, 6600, 6200, FX5900, FX5700.
o Radeon X800, 9800, 9700, 9600, 9550, 9500.
* Something like a 2GHz CPU.
* Somewhat recent video card drivers. "

[ShadowClock59]

Hey, sorry for the 3 month bump, lol. Thanks for making this a sticky, I love playing around with demos that can really really test my hardware, nice finds. :thup:

Here is an interesting techdemo of an upcoming game . It works best on AMD64 processors running WinXP Pro x86-64 . But at reduced quality on Win Xp 32 bit :

Ahahahah what a rip off of F.E.A.R. Might as well just used a F.E.A.R. timedemo.
