    Parhelia and T&L compatibility ?

    Hello,

    I just downloaded the Spider-man demo (I guess I was curious to see how they managed to turn this into a game), but it refused to run...
    Perhaps it is for the better, for I doubt my G200 on my PII-450 could even be used , but it gave the message that a T&L-compatible card was required.

    Does the Parhelia work with this game (or demo) ?
    If so: is the T&L done in hardware or software ?

    There is a thread around here somewhere that explains that.
    h/w T&L is DX8
    vertex and pixel shaders have intergrated and are more advanced then the original T&L
    so simply yes as far as i know

    English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

          I play Spiderman on my Parhelia without issue.
          And of course the 'T&L' is done in hardware.
