I've said it before and I'll say it again, Toni is the unsung hero of the Amiga world. He's a workman, he's like the tide washing away at a supposedly impregnable stone, eroding the "impossible" and "can't be done" and "would be too slow" down to a fine sand, which he then churns against the next task.
Go Toni! |

Time to donate (yes, You).
Yep, I told before I think all the people with money in their pockets should donate right now. "Smiley: COME ON... Donate right now"

Can you imagine how much a Kickstarter project to port PPC to Amiga emulation could have costed? Now think about using OS4.1, etc, etc ... Last edited by Retrofan; 14 August 2014 at 00:37. |

Hi Fernando, settings should be logged in the file I can send you the config I use tomorrow. It loads the os4 rom, resets and ppc crashes at a green screen.

Looks similar to OS4.1 that you know I'm trying to run. Looking forward for that config. Anything you want you can PM' me mate.
Ups... let me quote myself as it's taking some effect: Quote:

This is what I get. It loads the rom and freezes on a red screen. If I reset it, it freezes on a green screen the second time and the third time, it just gets to the reset black screen and Winuae stops responding if I reset it a fourth time. It was the same when I tried the OS4 install floppy.

Use kernel.debug (modify your kicklayout), then in the startup-sequence BootLoader command line put something like this: BootLoader COMMANDLINE="SERIAL debuglevel=5 BaudRate=115200". I can tell you from experience a red screen means PPC is not working or not present. (I'm an OS4 classic beta tester |

Wrong version. (beta9 is old and I am quite sure this problem is already fixed).

It crashes (red screen) because PPC BAT MMU registers (similar to 68030+ TTRs) are either invalid or some memory address is wrong. Only way to confirm is to crash it on real hardware early enough (I don't know how..) and compare serial dump register contents. |

I think Toni has suggested that we move any PPC info/help to a new thread, so I created a new one for this. If he didn't, I apologize in advance.

after lot of suffering I have a descent blizard ppc emulation working
I solved all problems using BPPCFix-GUI , then I can change between kernels with a simple click http://aminet.net/util/libs/BPPCFix-GUI.lha what I tested: warpjpeg datatype: working. mpega.library ppc: working but very slow, there is not enough emulation power to play any mp3 file at 44100 hz warphexen: not working, after I select screen mode screen goes black warpheretic: idem as warphexen my conclusion: The emulation of ppc is yet very slow,I calculated is about 25% of a ppc at 166mhz unless some PPC- JIT emulation is implemented this is real obsolete because even a haswell intel cpu which are fantastic in single core speed will not reach the 50% of power of a 160mhz ppc in the weakest blizzard Last edited by Sandro; 15 August 2014 at 06:32. |
