Version 2.0 with more VESA modes/depths
Super Trace Benchmark (2023) » Devlog
Version 2.0 of the Super Trace Benchmark is out now (yes, version 1.0 was just released yesterday, but hey, I only tested it on DOSBox and DOSBox-X). It was brought to my attention that e.g. the Voodoo3 VESA BIOS by default doesn't support 320x240x32bpp, and one other machine I'm always testing with (with a S3 UniChrome Pro) doesn't even expose any 320x240 resolutions. So, this release queries the supported modes and lets the user select a mode. The fallback VGA mode now also has a pixels/second counter, and if the benchmark runs fully to the end, the resulting score is printed at the exit screen.
ChangeLog:
- Fixed text (DOS Game Jam year)
- Add support for 24 bpp and 16 bpp VESA modes
- Add support for 640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768 modes
- Add benchmarking support for VGA fallback mode
- Add dialog to choose resolution/depth on startup
- Display benchmark results on exit (if benchmark completed)
