AmiQuake new 68k Quake Port for AGA/RTG

NovaCoder · 17 June 2012, 09:49

I just finished a new port of WinQuake to 68k (AGA/RTG).

WinQuake is the "official" Source port of Quake to Windows. It has no "modern" graphics (such as dynamic shadows) and lacks colored lighting, but is good for lower-end PCs that have Windows installed, or for oldschool players who prefer the game's original look.

WinQuake

Features:

AGA & RTG Graphics up to HD (WinUAE only!)
Highly compatiable wih the original game
16bit AHI double buffered sound
8bit native sound

This is another of my ports that could be enhanced with Indivision AGA Graffiti support one day

AmiQuake on YouTube

I'll upload it to AmiNet in the next couple of days.

thanks james.

Quake is very fast on 060@75Mhz,but is it possible to get 16bit PPC like the clickboom original 68k version but PPC so that the extra colours are displayed.

XDelusion · 21 June 2012, 19:51

Did this ever get uploaded to Aminet?

Hiya,

Not yet sorry, been really busy this week. I'll try and package it up this weekend

XDelusion · 21 June 2012, 23:42

Good to hear! My 80Mhz 060 is on it's way back from Poland.

NovaCoder · 23 June 2012, 09:32

Just uploaded 2 AmiNet.

fitzsteve · 23 June 2012, 14:19

Great, I'm looking forward to testing it out when I get back

Does the Malice addon I sent you work with it? If so what are the commands to get it going

No not as fast as Clickboom's commercial release.....I'm just a part time coder

Yep Malice worked, just set it with the tooltype

Malice is very demanding though I found

johnim · 23 June 2012, 16:32

hi any chance of a link cant find it cheers

XDelusion · 23 June 2012, 18:49

This is only partially related, but I thought worth mentioning.

There is a port of Quake for the Nintendo DSi.

I was reading through the docs when I came across a line that said that they tested it with the Quake files from the Amiga release...

For what ever reason, I seem to find more and more Amiga users or ex-Amiga users developing homebrew for handhelds and home game systems.

Now what I'm wondering is if the resources on the Amiga CD are any different than the PC resources. Like was anything cut out to make it run smoother?

roy bates · 23 June 2012, 18:51

if it uses the pak files in the id drawer there all the same.(theres one for the psp as well)

Not as demanding as Aftershock,this addons is very hard you have to be lucky to get off the first level.

Don't forget the rare Shrak addon too.

XDelusion · 23 June 2012, 21:02

I'm still not seeing this on Aminet. Where are you guys getting it?

roy bates · 23 June 2012, 21:17

from what ive seen it,ll take a while to show on aminet.

NovaCoder · 23 June 2012, 23:33

I've just stuck the AmiNet version in the Zone.

johnim · 23 June 2012, 23:47

thanks will try tmoz

XDelusion · 24 June 2012, 00:20

Thanks!!!

gibs · 24 June 2012, 12:27

I tried it.
Again, with my config B1260@66Mhz, it runs a looot slower than Quake.

utri007 · 24 June 2012, 16:39

http://aminet.net/package/game/patch/FastPatchQuake

This is must have thing with Amiga Quake. It was also in CU Amiga Quake special, with tools to make it permanent.

It really makes a difference. With it 040 40mhz is playable, if over 10 fps all the time is ok to you.

I don't think that patch is needed with my port but thanks for the suggestion.

Version 1.04 in the Zone, just got a huge 10% speed increase by disabling dynamic lighting. I hope to get another few FPS by using the DS port for ideas so watch this space for future updates

This will be my last update for a couple of months as I'm off to sunny old England for a well earned holiday

Mad-Matt · 25 June 2012, 17:53

Comming over to wet'n'windy / flooded England ....for a holiday

Calabazam · 25 June 2012, 22:20

Thanks for this aminet release. Tried it on my A1200 68060@50 + AGA and it appears to be slightly faster and more playable than the old Quake68k port.
Are there still possibilities of improvement?

XDelusion · 26 June 2012, 23:07

I presume he is referring to cQuake for the Nintendo DS?

daxb · 28 June 2012, 19:36

I downloaded http://www.quaketerminus.com/mods/alienq11.zip and copied it to AmiQuake directory.

If I start AmiQuake I get this error message: "W_LoadWadFile: couldn't load gfx.wad"

So I thouhgt I have to change the "game=MALICE" tooltype. After that I get this error:

You must have the registered version to use modified games

What is going on? What I`ve to change?

XDelusion · 29 June 2012, 23:04

Quake is running pretty good on my Apollo 80Mhz 060, but BOOM is choppy as hell. Strange.

NovaCoder · 18 September 2012, 04:22

version 0.7 released

Just need that Indivision AGA Graffiti update now for another couple of FPS in AGA mode

Lots of other nice videos to watch on Youtube

tom256 · 18 September 2012, 21:36

Now the question is: Is it possible to make Quake running fine on MC68040???

emufan · 18 September 2012, 22:05

assuming quake makes good use of such trigonometrixc functions, Apollo 060 users might
check Cosmosblog for a tuned 68060.library, version 66.8 for now.
worth a try, i think.

I doubt it, with some more work it should be playable on a slower 060 but I think an 040 is out of the question.

corpsicle · 18 October 2012, 10:28

Wee!
Tested this last night and it FLIES on my 060/50... well, i get 10-15 fps pr so.

Im not sure i get how to make it run on RTG though?

NovaCoder · 18 October 2012, 13:57

Cool, glad you like it, I'm still trying to make it faster (got a new build going right now in fact).

To get it to run in RTG, you need to change the tooltype to 'RTG' from 'PAL', you also need to make sure you have a 640x480 8bit RTG screen mode available on your system.

The RTG uses the CyberGFX API which 'should' work on P96 systems but....
