![]() I want to clarify that these creations are aimed at an audience of enthusiasts and experts of this world who, with their experience, can better manage this new video card with the heart managed by chips created by 3dfx.Īt the following addresses it is possible to download both manuals in Pdf format: In particular, the King shaman manual has undergone a revision of the text by John Shaul, another Enthusiast of the 3dfx world that I warmly greet, which has made the instructions written by the author even more understandable. King Shaman and MGV2020 2D Video Module Installation and User Manualsīoth hardware components, the King Shaman and the MGV2020 video module, have a user manual written by the developer, with the basic and essential functions for correct operation, installation of the software hardware and a section, in case of problems, of analysis and software debugging. However, for lovers of classic PCB color, a green version of the King Shaman and MGV2020 2D video module has also been released. Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum, two other myths that are unforgettable for me (ciacara note □). While the " ZXCXIV" logo is the acronym written in the " Roman Alphabet" of the nickname used by Anthony in his beloved homeland, Russia, which is zx-c64. The Shaman graphics printed on the King Shaman are original designs by the Developer who was inspired by John Travolta's facial physiognomy (Anthony's note □). The White Siligraphies drive me crazy, they stand out on the color of the PCB in an impeccable way. ![]() Perhaps because I am in love with the Black color, I could not imagine this card, according to my personal tastes, of another color. Too quick and inattentive extraction and/or assembly of the video module would risk bending the contacts of the 14-pin connector (ciacara note □). It should be emphasized that the disassembly/assembly of the MGV2020 video module, even if assembled very well, must be carried out with care. Now I understand why Anthony defines the assembly phase as "boring" and unnerving. It all depends on the quality of the components and the precision of the assembly. The precision of the assembly of the components on the PCB is impeccable, I would say almost "maniacal" (note of ciacara □) also because, in the event of problems with soldering and/or components, there is no debugging tool to identify any malfunction. The card, combined with the video module and the passive heatsinks that I have personally added, weighs 390 grams. Instead, having it physically in your hands gives you a completely different impression. This vga switching is based on modern MAX4885AE vga switch chips and provides near perfect quality if you use good vga cable.Īt first glance, at least from the photos, the King Shaman gives the impression of being very fragile. The King Shaman has the ability to "hear" the vga signal and guide it to the display. Thanks to the pass-through vga port, just connect your Agp video card to the King Shaman, replace the main video card, in the motherboard bios, selecting the boot from PCI and you're done. Sometimes, you want to play dos games ( Vigre uses the S3 Trio 2D core which is famous for perfect dos mode compatibility) or you are something of a " pervert" (note from Anthony □) and you like to see the acceleration 3D with S3 Virge. Imagine having a system with a powerful Agp video card and King Shaman card with 2D video module installed at the same time. The King Shaman, combined with the MGV2020 2D video module, is an independent video card and can also be combined with another video card. 4MB for each TMU dedicated to textures.2MB for each FBI dedicated to the framebuffer.The King Shaman consists of two Voodoo (1) Graphics (FBI) chipsets and 4 Texture Mapping (TMU) units on a single PCB.The King Shaman & MGV2020 2D Video ModuleĪt the following address you will find one of the first posts where you thought about how and if it was possible to create a video card SLI Voodoo 1: Open Quartz 2 v0.After the Review of the Stoned Shaman 20MB written by Marlon, great and well-known Voodooalert Enthusiast whom I greet affectionately, it's time to review the next release created by Anthony:.nGlide (Glide wrapper that works with DOSBox).NOTARGET: Toggle invisibility to monsters NOCLIP: Toggle no clipping (walk through walls) GIVE #: Gives weapon # (type different #s to get different weapons) Press the ~ key to open the console window, then enter any of the cheats below: Arm yourself against the cannibalistic Ogre, fiendish Vore and indestructible Schambler using letal nails, fierce Thunderbolts and abominable Rocket and Grenade Launchers.
