The Savage4 series' single cycle trilinear filtering and S3TC texture compression prosabage a 3D card with exceptional image quality. Flaming or offending other users. S3's yield problems forced Hercules to hand pick usable chips from the silicon wafers. Development of Savage as a discrete card was discontinued. Enter the e-mail address of the recipient Add your own personal message: S3 Graphics graphics processors. Savage4 was an evolution of Savage 3D technology in many ways.

Not only that, but S3TC allowed these much higher quality textures to be rendered with negligible performance impact. Unfortunately S3TL does not function properly. Its innovative feature-set included prsoavage following:. S3 engineers claimed that the S3TL engine had feature parity with GeForceand that it could render 2.

In earlyS3 retired the Savage3D and released the Savage4 family. Promote cracked software, or other illegal content. It causes missing textures, errors in geometry and models, and minimal performance benefits.

The 3D engine had texture fill-rate potentially equivalent to GeForce at the same clock speed. The MX had many similarities to Savage4 but had reduced clocks and added an integrated TV out function with optional Macrovision. Unfortunately for S3, deliveries of the Savage3D were hampered by poor manufacturing yields. Within Direct3D titles such as Shogo: Savage supported S3's S3TC texture compression, a hardware transform and lighting engine named "S3TL", and was equipped with a "QuadTexture Engine" capable of a single quad-textured pixel per clock or 2 dual-textured pixels per clock.

Whether the issues are a result of poor drivers or defective hardware is unknown. This page was last edited on 29 Mayat You are logged in as. In this respect at least, S3's economical use of transistors proved highly advantageous. The posting of advertisements, profanity, or personal attacks is prohibited.

They added single-pass multi-texturing, meaning the board could sample 2 textures per pixel in one pass not one clock cycle through the rendering engine instead of halving its texture fillrate in dual-textured games like Savage 3D.

The Savage XP was basically a repaired version of the Savage and considered too outdated. VIA Technologies x86 processors.
