Amiga Games at 50 fps

[vulture]

So, as I was looking around and didn't find a similar thread listing 50 fps games, I thought I'd start this one. Plz, tell me what should I add in this list after tested with newest winuae beta. I think we should include games that may have small framedrops/slow downs here and there, but they are for the larger part running at the 50 fps (60 fps for NTSC) mark.
The following lists are pretty accurate now thx to Toni Willen's new winuae feature, showing screen changes at the border and also thx to Retro Nerd for doing the bulk of the work under this new winuae version:

Legend:
(N) - Game works ok on NTSC and keeps its equivalent frame rate (30/60 fps). Also the gameplay area must remain intact to qualify.
(FS) - Gameplay area is Full Screen (at least 288x200 or the equivalent amount of pixels)
(O) - Game seems to be using some overscan technique

If a game has both OCS and AGA versions and there's no indicator about it, it means both versions have been tested and work the same way.
The grading of the games in the list is not complete regarding the (N) , (FS) and (O) attributes, just what is checked so far.

lion king,
mr nutz
tubular worlds
toki
lion heart

is very evident they run at 25fps

you can add to the list james pond 2 and 3 and Assasin SE

[Retro-Nerd]

lion king,
mr nutz
tubular worlds
toki
lion heart

is very evident they run at 25fps

Mr. Nutz and Lionheart are of course full 50fps games. Katakis is missing.

[h0ffman]

NOTHING by Tiertex!

we can discuss about mr nutz
but
lionheart is fantastic game but very slow/jerky it seems it runs at 15 fps

to compare the smoothness of lionheart you can try some lionheart remake by Byron 3D Games Studio

[Sandro]

you can add Cytron and Watch tower AGA

they are both very smooth ,fact they run at 50 fps

[Retro-Nerd]

LOL, what? Lionheart runs at 15fps? It may have intentionally slow animations, but scrolling and animation is 50fps for sure. Are you sure you run Amiga games on a proper 50Hz display?

Rolling Thunder

The CPC version is faster...really.

Battle Squadron

Scrolling yes. Sprites animation is only 25fps.

[Mrs Beanbag]

Deluxe Galaga, of course

Wiz Kid

Added everything you've mentioned (how could I forget Mr Beanbag!) plus Alien Breed Tower Assault AGA - if you believe other alien breed games are 50 fps as well, plz let me know. I've also put an asterisk to Lionheart and I'll do so for every game that has a disputed frame rate. For the record, I've tried it again and it truly feels like 50/60 fps. More over, I've ran it on winuae with frame skip 1 and there's a visible difference - doesn't that mean it's a true 50fps game?

Do you think I should also make a category for mixed frame rates like Battle Squadron and Banshee?

[Retro-Nerd]

What? Lionheart? Frameskip doesn't give you real smooth scrolling. If you don't have a 50Hz display you can only try to run it in NTSC/60Hz mode. Then it's smooth but with too fast music. But to be clear: Lionheart is full 50fps, despite was Sandro said.

[vulture]

That's what I said, with frame skip 1 the scrolling wasn't smooth under winuae, thus it must be a 50/60 fps game.

[Sandro]

we should ask Toni if there is the possibility of adding some feature in winuae to check how many fps the games are running on

[vulture]

That would be a great idea if it's possible!

[Retro-Nerd]

How? A PAL Amiga always ouputs 50fps@50Hz. No matter if scrolling and animation runs with lower speed. Technically impossible probably.
