As for if it works... ASGS simply says "ASGSClient has an invalid signature" and then updates itself AND allegiance (reverts it to the non-dx9 version), It was doing this before too.

Is the source code for this branch up on the repository? I'm not sure if it is intentional, but some of the HUD items are semi-transparent (or more transparent than they were)
I guess you used the ntfs trick to reroute a folder on your system drive to your installation hdd. If you do that, you need to change the asgs shortcut as well. Otherwise it will update allegiance.exe again and again.

Looks like it does not run on intel cards. Are they all dx 9 compatible?

Ahh, excellent, thank you sir, that did the trick.

I will test this out later on my laptop which has a the intel 950 thingy. They are directX 9 compatible, so it must be something else they dont like.

My Intel card doesnt work either. Dog has the exact chipset, but I'm not on that computer atm, or I'd post it.

My guess, based purely on nothing, is that the Intel integrated graphics chips do not support the type of 3d device being created. Not being able to see the source code yet, I can't say with any degree of certainty. It may a matter of switching the device from hardware vertex processing to software vertex processing. An option to change the device to reference mode in that little panel that launches might be nice for testing purposes.

I get a weird bug with Hull and Shield gauges.
This is a screenshot as it should be (normal Alleg):


And this is a screenshot with the alpha Alleg:


Hull and Shield are truncated from low (alpha/wrong) instead from high (normal/correct).

I also got mid-game this too:

Code: Select all

Allegiance exited with code: x5c9b035fed62d487
