Compatibility

Most older versions of Armagetron did not work on Windows NT and Windows 2000.

Legend

Every smiley stands for one report I got; note that failures may be caused by buggy documentation/drivers, so do not decide against a download because of a single doesn't work at all, and mail me if and how you get it to work. Please help me fill in the white spots of this map and send me your reports! (Especially if your 3D chipset is not listed.)

works fullscreen Works fullscreen doesn't work fullscren Does not work fullscreen, no info about windowed mode
works windowed Works in windowed mode doesn't work at all Does not even work in windowed mode

Footnotes:

  1. Download the latest drivers, copy Opengl32 and glu32 from win98
  2. If you have 3Dfx VooDoo addon (1,2, 3-2000) board, read doc/readme_windows.html to learn how to use it.
  3. Works only since Version 000530.
  4. Those were the configurations I tested at work.

Big Brother

 The info above comes form real people writing me mails; the table below is created using the "Big Brother" information the Armagetron clients send to my server. Obvously, there can't be any "does not work" or "works, but has severe bugs" reports in this list...

Footnotes:

  1. Stoppend counting there...
  2. Due to my misconfigured development system, every Windows version before 000523 was reported as (and had the drawbacks of) SDL 1.0. Sorry about that...
Looks like the SDL 1.0 version is no longer needed in future releases.
