My latest invention.. sorta

[Monk]

I've been messing with CUDA support by offloading some functions for games into the GPU of a video card. So far, I've been able to manipulate some instructions by creating a virtual machine to directly call CUDA instructions for certian floating point operations, ie

 

foobar() -> cpu_foobar ? : 0 : 1 -> gpu_foobar()

 

I have a test CSS server that I've been screwing with, but when you exit the server it crashes. Another cool trick is using a video cards onboard memory for maps and temporary files, which is a factor of 30 faster than normal system memory

 

I'll take some screenshots when it isn't so messy. If I can move the core sleep functions into the GPU, it will be more accurate than any hardware timers due to the sheer speed and no latency..

Thread bookmarked. I've got to see this.

Almost done with it. I'll post screenshots soon.

Did it work? Is it functional?

[Monk]

Yea, it works. I gave up on it though because it's just something I wrote for older games. I'm pretty much out of this field.
