Best games for accelerated Amigas - Page 2

vroom6sri · 22 February 2011, 21:18

Birds of Prey & Gunship 2000 seemed very smooth to me with my ACA1230/28. Not sure if there was an improvement with F1GP or not - I think it might be "smoother" but not faster but then I suppose that is what should be expected. Still, I could be imagining it!

Epic is also better.

Allow me to be the first to suggest Gloom Deluxe.

You should use F1GP Ed to unlock higher fps. should run nicen smooth then on accelerated Amiga

We would do...but your not first ;P

Games/Emu's that benefit from an accelerator:

shapeshifter mac emu (especially if you have an MMU) warcraft, Marathon etc.
MSX -play lots of great shooters, and metal gear.
C64 -magic 64 is good.
MasterSystem -lots of classics.
Day of the tentacle.
Xtreme racing
Alien F1

F1GP Ed(itor)? Is it easy to find and use to clock up the FPS? I would love to see this rocking along on my A1230/28!

anyone got a registered version of Magic64, the author's website has been abandoned?

Its here on Aminet http://aminet.net/package/game/edit/F1GP-Ed

Go into display options and you can set fps there. Make sure to backup original game .exe of course

I realise I'm a month late, but the keyfile's in the zone if you still want it

Highway Patrol II http://hol.abime.net/709 is faster and more smooth on accelerated Amiga (but intro animation is too fast).

FA-/18 Interceptor, and Settlers.

Yep, F1GP was hard-coded to something like 8FPS, and all the physics are based on this assumption, so F1GPEd removes that restriction and patches the physics calculations to compensate. I remember it made it feel like a whole new game - especially with an analogue joystick.

I'd second the calls of Birds of Prey and Frontier. Both benefit greatly from a little more grunt!

Shame some games don't benefit the extra power.NSP i notice doesn't other than the faster A1200 clock speed anyway and other 68000's ?.WHD games often prevent this too but maybe i'm wrong there but they seem different in this respect to the original disk based

Shame Fighter Bomber for example only takes advantage of a the faster clock speed and not any installed accellerator. Killing Cloud too

Birds of Prey does at least benefit

Microprose games had faster Amigas in mind so they all do

Dune II has been a noticeable one for me.
