Hi,

Many of us have good hardware and getting good Xbench scores.
My score without disk test = 155 (eVGA 8800GT SC 512 MB)
Any of you have tried 3D games ?
Command and conquer 3 etc. ??
Do they run on AMD based OSx86 comp ?

Please post your success stories with the procedure.

I (unfortunally very reguallary ^^) play World of Warcraft (The Burning Crusade). Runs pretty good on my Hack, with my GeForce 6600 GT even on full graphics settings, but it crashes about every 2 hours. But this doesn't prevent me playing WoW. ;-)

@rohikpatil, any game should run flawlessly, as long as one has Quartz Extreme & Core Image enabled.

The name 'Lara Croft' is the only character name I can remember of these new 3D games. But this game is about 10 years old. Characters of classic games from the 80's and 90's, like Indiana Jones, Zak McKracken, the Caponians, Guybrush Threepwood, LeChuck, Elaine Marley, the Voodoo Lady, Herman Toothroth, The Vegetarian Canibals, Roger Wilco or Leisure Suit Larry and the Maniac Mansion Cast (especcially Dave, Bernard, the Edisons and the green and purple Tentacle) you'll never forget.

These were the beginning of vectorized 3D Adventures: Castle Master on the Amiga. This game was also available on the C64 and even the ZX Spectrum. On the C64 it's rather slow, but with higer speed in an emulator or with an accelerator card it's great. They also released an '3D Construction Kit' with which you can do games like this of your own.

Another vector-based, but 2D game was Another World. The special feature of this game was the extreme realistic movements to these times. As I know the programmer filmed his brother and used these sequences for the game.

The game Moonstone was indexed at these times, claimed to be too brutal. Compare it to todays games... ;-)

This was also only working with these great amiga drives ;-) But also a Sacnner is rather good at this.
