No SSE build yet?

When I think about Feodor's old Mypal releases, I don't believe that there'll be any SSE builds. :no: But just an assumption! Nevertheless, an additional SSE build would be great, of course! :thumbup

I created a new profile, and my crash went away...  I think I tried to enable too much stuff like hardware acceleration and such, and that may have caused it to trip up.

I think it's a shame D3D9 support was removed from FF68 though...  WebGL2 fails in about:support, whereas with Serpent, it works if you set it to use D3D9 rather than Angle...  This is accomplished by modifying "webgl.disable-angle" to true...  Serpent falls back to D3D9, and then WebGL2 works.

I wonder what would happen if I forcibly inserted D3D9 strings in about:config in MyPal.

But regarding to the development of higher versions I would prefer completing missing functions in Mypal's settings and fixing the immature addon support at the moment. Generally I think it's an early state of development and there is some work necessary to get a final version of Mypal 68. :yes:

Yes, that was my point.

Anyway, I am glad to have a browser like Mypal 68 and very interested in coming releases.  :thumbup 

Cheers, AstroSkipper :)

Me too.

Mypal 68 is portable. Therefore you can try to modify whatever you want without any tragic consequences. If it doesn't work, simply delete it! I do have a main profile and one for testing purpose only.

What does this mean?  A build "without" SSE?  A build "for" SSE?

Well, both would work for me :P As long as it stays away from SSE2/3/4/etc.

According to the naming used by Roy - a build compatible with SSE-only CPUs, like my AthlonXP.

 

In the old MyPal repo these were not provided through the releases page. If i remember correctly, the one i have was buried somewhere in the issues.

I had never seen a SSE release of Mypal in the past. I used it and it was my favourite browser until development was dropped. Feodor provided only a 32 and a 64 Bit release of each version. And I would know of it whether such a SSE release existed in the past or not.

Hi @RainyShadow, I did a little research and you are absolutely right. Mea culpa! oops08.gif @feodor2 provided a Mypal 28.14.1 SSE build in the past. Sadly I missed that, it was really buried somewhere in the issues. Using the Wayback Machine I found it in the issue 126: https://web.archive.org/web/20201107143124/https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal/issues/126  coool.gif
Unfortunately the download link is no longer available. kleenex.gif Do you have a copy of this release?  If so, I would like to ask you to be so kind as to upload this copy. The reason is I do have an old computer with an AthlonXP 3200+ too. Therefore any SSE release of good software (especially Mypal) is welcome and would be great.

Kind regards, AstroSkipper surmene.gif

This was (of course) before I changed it to FF 91 and was experimenting with 68, but I find 91 to be smoother and faster.

Wow Wow .. very very nice. With this configuration (on my system and personal preferences) I'm watching videos and not even 1 single error. I limit it to only 2 processes.

user_pref("dom.ipc.processCount", 1);

Things are much smoother by spoofing FF91 on Win 10

However, what I'm a bit perplexed with, and that I can't get a secure connection to 1.1.1.1 and ESNI is no longer working?!?

user_pref("network.trr.mode", 2);

user_pref("network.security.esni.enabled", true);

Any assistance would be appreciated.

I now have very high hopes for mypal going forward - I'm truly enjoying using this browser and might consider making it default someday soon.

...:)
