It works on A500 if you have 040 or better in it But seriously there is now way this could run on 68000 since it is strugglin on 040.

sure thing, let me know what hardware and compiler you will need and let me know when the port will be ready so i can commit it to my repo

that is great. well done!

A500 and 1 megabyte? That should work?

[lantus360]

1.0.1 Released in the Zone and Aminet

- added CD32 gamepad compability
- jumpattack no longer forces jumpattack2
- removed 68030 restriction. good luck with that 030 owners.
- better system shutdown. should no longer leak memory.

CD32 Pad works fine on my A4000 for game play. Although I can't seem to config it to say use the play button as Start etc.

What's the game at the start of your vid? Would like to see how it runs on my A4000 with an 060 at 90Mhz.

[lantus360]

its the vanilla Beats of Rage game

Thx i will test it this weekend on my 1200 with Blizzard 1230/50 with 68882 and 32Mbyte Ram i think it will not run fast, but i will see what speed is possible, with this port in this early stage .

[Retrofan]

Sorry, I haven't read your "readme" -all of these posts-. Does it need FPU?

Thanks a lot for this great port.

[lantus360]

no it doesnt. There is a specific NoFPU version

[vulture]

Thx m8!

So, tried it on my Blizzard MK2/FPU/64mb and both fp and non-fp versions crashed after loading for a minute or so (HyperFinalFight, unpacked), the "loading" screen had came up as well, but - ultimately - a no go.
Could it be it needs even more RAM?

[kgc210]

Just given the standard BOR game ago on my A4000. Runs really well on par with your Vampire 2 video, I can't really tell which is faster if either?

I don't have one but would it be worth while adding Prisma Megamix / MAS Player support to off load Audio processing? Might help people with an 030 trying to play games.

[Schlachtwerk]

I have testet it with 32Mb ram and blizzard 1230iv at blizzard speed but only on winuae and and it will run slow but it will run, on real i can test it this weekend . i think the audio is the problem for the 030.

Try increasing the stack.

you can turn the music off in the menu.

The music was out, the sound was on 11 heart at 8bit, I do not know whether the 030 processor is too lame for sound but WinUAE on Blizzard 1230 IV speed, has made continuity difficult and stuttered and misfires, could not be complete Without sound testing. As I said at the weekend, I will test the whole on real hardware, but I think the result is the same unfortunately. I would imagine that if you could convert the music and samples in IFF, which would remove a lot of CPU load.

you are focusing too much on the audio being the bottleneck when the big elephant in the room is 68030, AGA and Chunky2Planar

Stack was indeed to blame. Raised it to 2000000 (I know, overkill) and it works. Kinda. Doesn't seem to respond to my joystick at all. Timer counts down correctly and enter brings out the in game menu, but no way to move my character.

[Schlachtwerk]

I prefer to go from other ports, for example, (AmiWolf) and I think that if the CPU has less to do with the audio decoding, more time remains for the graphics and animation on the screen. But I am only a hobby progammers the occasional times what tried in Amiblitz and have Rather said not so the idea where bottle neck in the system exists.
I would like it just great if it would run on my Amiga, which it is possibly not possible, I leave open because it was often said that it is not possible to implement something and then comb one of the not know it does not go and Has made it easy. But this has nothing to do with your port, your priority is because once it all worked smoothly. Despite all, a really good piece of software for Amiga, hat off.
