So I flashed Gold 3 onto my A600 last night and tried it out a bit. It is really nice to be able to connect my Amiga to a HDMI monitor without a scandoubler and play old games using native Amiga screen modes. Despite being still an alpha version, it is quite far along. AGA + RTG will be a really great combination once the development is that far.

I was talking about the big plan of Gunnar, which started long before Vampire cards, and I guess long before you were involved. Since then, his plan has of course changed a lot, becoming less and less ambitious.

It is also possible to implement extra instructions in free opcodes (with emulation like 68060 does for movep & co). Some exist for something else on 68080 and the program will not work or even crash. Or write some 020+ code that depends on move sr being supervisor only - will not work for 68080. Etc. As long as there are differences, you can write incompatible code. Quote:

I do have friends and I think part of the reason I do is that I don't continue telling them the same thing for years.

Sorry, Phil. But you still cant crash 68080 using normal code 68040 CPU code. Move SR works in user mode for 68000, 68020, 68030, doesnt works for 68040 and 68060 only, not tested for 68010 (i dont have access to Amiga with this CPU). I tested this because some Amiga players used move.w SR, -(SP) , and move.w (SP)+,SR in user mode. You want to be, to puristic to me for SR handling. No difference for normal code, maybe if you want to detect 68040 or 68060 only. But noone used SR handling for CPU detection. |

You should care!! It's very important that you understand this!!!"...and on and on... eg. Gunnar said it would have a FPU AND AGA!!!! He said it would all fit!!!!11. And he's arrogant!! Well, it didn't. Whoop-de-shit. |

Or to put it another way, if your friends keep hearing the same thing, over and over from you, and they don't agree or don't care, if you keep going on about it, do you really think they'll stay your friend, I think there is a good chance they may at the very least reduce how often they interact with you... Like how a lot of people, back in the day, didn't talk to me about computers because I would tell them they needed to get an Amiga. Over and over again. I learnt from that - eventually, hahaha |

Sometimes, you have to accept that people understand the message but you won't change their mind. Continuing to repeat the same thing just makes you a fucking irritant. Lesson learnt for me too.. |

So what exactly was the topic of this thread again?
Maybe we should change it to "Vampire Accelerators: Awesome Hardware or Emotional Trigger" |

In reality, what's stopping you to do your own core or architecture. Do stuff differently than we do. We can talk seriously only when you show something but this is something that will never happen. True purpose of your posts is just to waste our time and destroy every Apollo-core topic opened by constantly putting words out of context and with silly talk Gunnar said that and did this. Who fucking cares what he said or did. Get a life, not like you were married with him. I just gotta go off the topic and post this: [ Show youtube player ] This is the video everyone should see. Man said it all and this should be lesson to everyone. This is something happened number of times for most Amiga projects. Do we really want this happen again. Is our desire to chase away anyone who is trying to create something by feeding personal ego and not respecting effort someone puts int projects. Just watch it.

I often feel there is a lot of wounded pride at play here and from other sources (there are some dudes on FB who sound the same everytime anything Vampire comes up).
It's always "Gunnar that idiot didn't listen to me, and look how crap everything's now" or some variation of it. How Gunnar dare not listen to them. Meanwhile all the other people are playing Cannonball Engine and Games on the Neo Geo Emulator on their Amigas on those crappy Vampire cards with that shitty Apollo core. |

so the predominant use-case is to play ports and run emulators, that one could run on any PC?

(and what this have to do with the fact that people enjoy emulators and ports (meaning: more options) on their hardware, be it vampire or 68060 driven?) Last edited by Tigerskunk; 27 September 2018 at 14:07. |
