vbetts Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 This is only about a month old. It was a project of mine when I had my Windows box.Basically, get Quake 4 and Prey working on the lower radeons.Prey though, worked perfectly on the lower radeons.Quake 4, required time. Quake 4 nativly needs a video card that supports Pixel shader 2.0, my Radeon I think only supports 1.4...I can't remember. But, I had to do a bit tweaking with this....I had to alter some of the textures alittle, and use a tailored config, not a problem.Quake 4 booted good. QUAKE 4 SETTINGS Texture Quality-Medium Bump maps-on specular-on high quality special effects-on Resolution-800x600 Screens now. If you notice, the color around the ammo count that are on guns are purple.Small problem, fixable, haven't gotten to it ever.Tried to fix it, here's what I got. Reinstalled Quake 4, and it was still like this.Nothing I could do about it. And now Prey.Settings with Prey, I forget what they were. I know so much though.The same settings as Quake 4, even though Prey has more settings in video.

Xeijin Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Wow for such a dated card those screens really look amazing, Well done! Any lag at all?? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/22765-quake-4-prey-on-radeon-9000/#findComment-151016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbetts Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 With Quake 4, the only lag at all is when you start it up, and load a game. Takes a minute or 2 to load, but when completing one level, and going to the next, like a 10 second load. Hopefully, Farcry will be my next project to work on the lower radeons in good quality.

Universe_JDJ Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I managed to play Far Cry on my Radeon 7000. Don't ask me how though. It ran at approx 10fps.
