(...) In that case, I may just have to say don't use it in 16 bit mode. Does ldglite report ATI instead of "Apple Generic" in 16 bit mode? I know the ATI windows drivers on my old 4MB Rage Pro are so bad that they're unusable. However, on windows (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Hey, do you still work in Westfield? If so, maybe I could drive up there for lunch tomorrow and see all this stuff in action. That might eliminate some of my confusion and guesswork about drivers, modes and versions. Don (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) When running at 16 bit the ATi drivers are loaded unless I mistakenly type ./ldglite -le -v1024,7400 mini.dat (instead of 740). When the window is set to 800x600 selecting and moving bricks works fine, but selecting and moving behaves badly (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Short version, yes, I am still working at Westfield, but no, I am not there at the moment. I am working out of the home office in Worcester.

I wouldn't be suprised to find some bugs there. And I (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) OK, I looked at the code above, and all it seems to do is tell its OpenGL context to update every time the window is resized. If their glut doesn't do this, then it is broken. As far as I know, there isn't any equivalent to this in Windows. (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev)
