And the SWAP CONFIG is open on my config (IO SPACE before MEM SPACE). Don't know if closed works.
Jack had some trouble setting up Warp3D (also on the 68K side) and I can't remember how I set it up in the first place. I think I just installed the 68K Warp3D from the Mediator CD and patched and copied the PPC ones in place. My first mistake here was to use Warp3D from Aminet, which differs from the Mediator ones. Then there are the Warp3D ENV parameters.... I really should start thinking about documentation at this point... Made a movie about some of the emulation stuff (WarpSNES, DarcNes, AmiGenerator, UAE). Should be posted soon. I'm almost getting at the point that I should test some programs on real WarpOS to see if it is really the sonnet.library which has the bug or whether it is the program itself (besides the obvious problems with Paula sound for example). |

Pretty impressive stuff :)
Don't know if it was thje video but sonic looked a little bit jerky and mario looked a bit teary |

ScummVM is definitely a bit teary while scrolling. I can see the code addressing normal Amiga memory about 20-30 times a second which is a costly context-switch you normally don't have with CS/BPPC. I could probably optimize that further. |
Also saw a hic-up in the decompression of AIBB in the video which I do not remember. Just tested it and no hic-up IRL.

I meant EXTRA context switches needed by the sonnet to access Amiga RAM, which the BPPC/CS does not have to do as they have direct access to all memory.

Which SNES Emulator have you used for this video and where can I find this pretty piece of software? Thanx :)
|
It's WarpSNES :). Can be found on AmiNet.

Got you. Thanks for exposing :) |
If a WarpOS demo is very neatly programmed, you get something like

G3/400 MHz (512k) with Voodoo4 on A4000 and with huge Hedeon's support will make this:

Sw33t. I guess you could also record some movies and put them on YouTube ;). I think the project could still use some publicity.
|
Regarding the placement of the cards: Voodoo4/5 needs to sit on a 256MB boundary in PCI memory to work with Sonnet (restraint in the way the MPC107 is set-up). If it is configured after Sonnet, it sits on a 128MB boundary. Cards are configured from bottom up inside A3000D & A4000D.
I think I have thought of a way to configure the Sonnet before the voodoo. It involves a patch in the pci.library. I'll try it this evening. |

So far we are three czech Sonnet club members ;o) But one waits for Mediator to buy and the other needs to find a time to build a A4k setup from scratch. BTW will be Mediator with Sonnet working with just A3640? Should be right?

It's untested though. But full 040 should definitely work. |

Comparison of two big Amigas in Quake2 under Warp3D in 640x480. Right side: A4000T, CSPPC 604e/333MHz, CVision PPC Left side: A4000, CSMK3, Sonnet G3/400MHz, Voodoo4 ... in this case Warp3D is very limited by Permedia 2 chip, because I had absolutely same benchmark result when 604e was on stock 200 MHz. I will make soon realtime comparison in software rendering soon... |
