    Morrowind

    I was wondering does anyone have this game who has a Parhelia?

    How does it play?

    Does it support surround gaming (If any title should, this is the one)

    Thanks

    You'll find a list of games that function or will function soon™ in surround gaming here.


    Morrowind from what I hear does play quite nice on a Parhelia but it doesn't appear to function in surround.

      It has support for custom resolutions but I do not think that they have the FOV command required to do Surround.

        Plays really well.

        Well, until you're fighting about 3 peeps and their letting off a few spell effects that is. I have no idea how it compares to other cards.

        I played breifly with a Kyro2 and morrowind. Kyro was about twice as quick rendering the Balmora town which was very suprising. Although, it wasn't having to render any pixel shaded water. Hmmmmm - I may test the P. without the PS water but it looks too damn nice

            I do not have 3 screens ATM but could someone try out semi-surround?

            HKLM\Software\Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind\Screen Width = 2400
            HKLM\Software\Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind\Screen Height = 600

              Question

              Question, would this draw distance be just as bad say on a 9700.

                It's pretty obvious, instead. Morrowind has no internal algorithm for hidden surface removal, so when you are in Balmora the video card has to render a huge number of things you will never see; Kiro2 has tile rendering, so it gain a lot of speed.
                And, Balmora is really full of buildings (I think one of the more filled city)...

                  True. But it looks about 300% better on the P.
