I remember someone posting about a Real-Time demo for ATI cards where you were seeing a women in red (I guess). It's not very old.

Any real-time demos URLs for me please?

 

[demi]

Perhaps check out the official page?

 

[tenchir]

You meant the Ruby demo?

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

You are going to need some files from beyond3d forums or whatever to get it to run on Radeon 9800 since the demo was made for x800.

Try the demos made for 9800 instead

Sorry, but your name is too close to mine, try again later

any radeon9600 tech demos?

any radeon9600 tech demos?

Any Radeon 9500/9700/9800 demos will work on Radeon 9600 including x800 demoes if you replace the shaders.

Any way to get some of those 9xxx screensavers to run on an old 8500le?

Those 9xxx demoes requires DirectX9 hardware.

This stuff is pretty cool. Does anyone have links to any other impressive tech demos?

 

[DaCocoBrova]

I have a bunch on my machine, and there are a bunch of links in the OT forum if you do a search. Look up Zeitgeistmachina or whatever it's called.

nVidia gets a skimply clad, breasty pixy and we get...a chimp. Thanks ATI.

 

[teiresias]

My favorite demo is "The Popular Demo" it's like 025 or something like that in some series. Do a goodle search and you'll find it, not hugely impressive technically, but really cool to look at. No shaders or anything I don't think, just really nice looking and clean when you pump up the res and use anti-aliasing.

[EDIT]: Here's a link

I've seen alot of the other ones they've made, but that one is my favorite.

Nope

Thanks guys! I'm a total graphics whore so I love tech demos.

Doom 3!

 

[DaCocoBrova]

Funny how Doom 3 looks as good (if not better) as the 3dMark2003 FPS sequence, but runs at a much faster clip...

I didn't think we'd be playing anything like that this soon.












Where do I place the opengl32.dll in order to get the fairy to work?

I downloaded the Nvidia Dawn demo, but I think something is wrong with it. When I installed it, everything seemed to be going smoothly. The promblem is, that there is only a single icon from the download. No folders or anything. When I click on the program to run, it just asks me if I want to delete the whole thing from my computer. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

DaCocoBrova, I think this page says where to drop it.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

The .exe is in the bin folder...


Thanks for the link btw.

 

[Jumpman]

How do I access the bin folder? All I see is an icon that intalls/uninstalls the demo, I don't see any folders at all. ( Please forgive my newbieness, I really am clueless as to how to make this work.)

 

[DaCocoBrova]

root:\program files\Nvidia Corporation\Nvidia Demos\

I'm at work, so that's off the top of my head, but that should be right. You'll find all the folders in there.

 

[Jumpman]

Thanks for the help. I didn't know what the root prompt meant, but its extensions gave me some good ideas to run through the windows search function. After that it didn't take long to locate the files, and I had the demo up and running in no time. I'm not sure why the files were buried so deep. Usually when I download something, all the files are right there, but this was an exception. It's a nice demo, though I wish there was a way to move the camera directly up and down the y-axis.

About the root:\, is that a Unix thing, or is that just one more thing that I don't know about Windows XP? I did a quick Google search and the results seemed to reference Unix.

Anyways, thanks again for the help.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

Root = install directory. That's the drive letter that will have Documents and Setting, Program files etc. Generally C:.

I don't put my program files in my install directory, but installshield will default to C:.

I appreciate the explanantion, I'm very computer literate, but there is still a lot of stuff that I need to learn. I've been around computers all my life, but never paid much attention to the details until I bought my own PC last September.
