GA-Source heeft een artikeltje gebakken over de Unified drivers van Creative Labs, waar zoals bekend een glide wrapper in verpakt zit:
The speed of the unified drivers is actually astounding. I ran Unreal in Glide faster than the Direct3D support or OGL support. Jokingly, it runs in Glide more accurate than I'd like. The bad filtering and poor color dithering appears much like the Voodoo2's ugliness.Why are the unified drivers so fast? In this instance, Creative is a lot like an ex-magician. They've worked with Glide before, to make their drivers for the old 3dfx boards they sold, they have experience with Glide and good technical knowledge of it. An ex-magician will be able to perform the trick with much more accuracy than someone who has little knowledge of magic, so in comparison Creative has an ace up their sleeve.
Verder nog in het artikel nog juridische stuff (Glide wrapper - mag dat?). Check 't hier.
