    Hi,


    I just wanted to point you to http://www.nic.fi/~varsa/index.html
    where I stumbled over AlyBox which is a nice game for some free time
    (however you need a 3D gfx card as it uses Warp3D).

    For those who don't have one there is also ImuBox, MenoBox and
    MenoBoxXmas.
    They however need a working StormMesa installation.
    As StormMesa only works without hw-acceleration correct here, I had
    to disable it setting the ENV variable MESA/NOHW.

    So, if I dragged you away from serious work, I guess my job here is
    done. :)

    I dont know about any instalation, but I have simply many Storm Mesa GL demos and they run. They run also with MOS1.3 without Warp3D.

    Nice games! =)
    However here without HW 3D acceleration are naturally a bit slow. However wich is the last version of StormMesa? i have the 3.0, is it the last available?
    Thanks.

    @ Jack,


    If you have not installed Warp3D on your system, StormMesa always uses
    the software renderer (and this one works ok).

    Only if you have also installed Warp3D (and selected an appropriate
    screenmode) then StormMesa uses the 3d hardware of the gfx card
    through Warp3D.

    (I hope I made no grave mistake as I'm not that familiar with
    StormMesa and Warp3D.)

    @ Miky060,


    According to the version file which was included in my distribution, I
    have StormMesa V3.1 here.
