The first rule about Flight Club is that you do not talk about Flight Club.

diadem had this to say about John Romero:
all will yield to the technical might of the fx chip!
Pilotwings did not use the FX chip. It used a DSP chip, which was basically a math coprocessor. First FX chip game was Starfox.

Mightion Defensor came out of the closet to say:

Starfox indeed was the first (and almost the only) game to use the FX chip. Pilotwings used Mode 7, which was standard in the SNES and was used in almost every game made for the system.

Stunt Race FX also used the FX chip, iirc.
Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (or something similar to that name) also had the FX chip.

wot is the FX chip.
It let the SNES have all the nice Poly McGonnigle things. 3D!

Drysart obviously shouldn't have said:

Yes. I still have my working copy. The DSP chip in Pilotwings (and Super Mario Cart) was used for the 3D space calculations, not the Mode 7 effects.
Yoshi's Island used the FX or FX2 (I can't recall which) for the graphic effects. DOOM for the SNES (what WERE they thinking?) was the last if not only game to use the FX2 chip.

Not correct. Starfleet Academy as far as I can read used no custom chips.

OK, so maybe it was a different game. The game I'm thinking of was definitely 3D, which was impossible with a normal SNES game.

ST:SA was definitely 3D - it was actually the last cart I got for my SNES.
It was fun, but there was no texture mapping whatsoever, and the framerate was lousy in anything more than single ship duels... which were, however, terribly fun.

I forget if you were able to play as anything other than the Federation ships in that one.

I don't believe there were any textures in any of the FX chip SNES games.

Maradon! had this to say about Jimmy Carter:

All the explosions in Starfox, and Andross' face, were texture mapped polygons.

I distinctly remember Andross's face as being non-textured polygons. I know this because my brother and I used to joke about how it looked like they had cast Chuck Norris in lawnmower man, if lawnmower man had been made in 1985.
Now that you mention it though, I do remember a few textures on some things, but the vast majority were untextured.

Drysart has it randomly add that whenever you quote.

Mario RPG was the RPG that got me into RPGs. My parents pointed it out in the mall one day and I got it for my birthday right as it came out. I loved, loved, Mario RPG.
Then Nintendo made Paper Mario, and I cried. Willias fucked around with this message on 10-07-2004 at 07:28 PM.
I think it looks promising.
