Woah!
Hang on a second here Chris! 🙂 There is a lot of assumption going on in
this conversation so far.
Diamond is currently testing the TurboDLD, but has NEVER shipped it. The
driver found on the 2.02 disk has a Panacea README that supercedes the
manual saying that the DLDCOLOR and rendering options have been disabled
for this release. This was a change made by Panacea during performance
enhancements that was released to Diamond. Panacea has since released a
driver that incorporates both the performance enhancements and the
functional DLDCOLOR and shading capabilities. This driver is available to
customers requiring support for 3D Studio prior to the next 24X disk
release around November 1.
Diamond does not intend to release any products that are in BETA phase by
either Diamond or any licensed organization executing an agreement with
Diamond.
