Agony - screen stuttering problem !

amilo3438 · 12 September 2017, 14:51

At 2nd part in game Agony screen stutters on a few places ! (I noticed that it does not happen if cycle-exact is disabled !)
Find used config file + 2statefiles files + logs in "The Zone!".

PS. I checked WinUAE versions 2700 till 3600b4 - it happens in all tested versions! (but dont know for previous versions)

It can be normal when "too many" things are happening at the same time (Turrican II does it too, at least in first level).

Hmm, so it happens on a real A500 too !?
I don't remember as never pass to 2nd part on my A500 - no statefile on a real Amiga.

Btw. if immediate blitter is enabled in cycle-exact mode (in config file) it won't stutter in WinUAE.

Yes, I remember small glitches in Agony when I was teen.

I remember stuttering in the game Robocod on my real A500 back in the 1990s, but I put that down to the memory expansion in my A500. I turned the expansion off but it made no difference.

Put it this way: Real hardware or emulation, there's only so much that can be done graphically, sonically and code-wise in one frame in every 50th or 60th of a second, on any given computer system, and if it needs more time, then it will take it, causing the duplicate frame, ie. the stutter.
