Unfortunately that legacy has been perpetuated on modern PCs. Even with all user acceleration controls turned off, the driver and/or mouse itself still has a nonlinear response. I have one USB mouse so sensitive that it is virtually useless for drawing. I found a setting in Linux that makes it better, but still not nearly as accurate as the ball mice on my Amigas! |

All my ball mice are shit on my Amigas compared to the optical ones on my mac?
What am I doing wrong? |

Just wondering what is happening? Is this site turning to amiga.org where tens of people write long posts how their opinions are more right or better than others?
This is about Doom clone for a Amiga 500. |

You are reading ALL of what he wrote? I don't mind long posts, but style of this guy writing, is somewhat boring, so I just skip after few sentences. |

I agree that working on real hardware is far better than emulation, I think taking up that point here though is derailing a thread which is really about the rather astonishing work being done by KK/Altair.
Any updates KK? Want to get us back on track? |

Sounds really good, especially now that you have weapon sprites. Tbh, I thought the dithering was mostly OK, except for some textures and that hand of course LOL. Can't wait to see the new improvements |

Saw an update from May 2020 and WOW this is an amazing development.
He mentioned about using CRT monitor to make dithering allow image to look better. I am keen to test on my 28" CRT TV! Where is the download link?... |

Yes, I mentioned the CRT effect and then messed up the video export. At the time of saying this the video was supposed to be using a CRT-like filter, but that did not render. As for the next update: entire asset converter pipeline was reworked, got lots of updated graphics and starting to get all that into the engine. On the way, the hand got much better already - turned quite yellow, but I don't really mind. |

Haha great work! Very smooth and still amazed you'll pulled this off on a stock machine (albeit with additional RAM)!
When will we be able to get a demo!? Lol |

PS/2 and USB mice are generally fine, but the acceleration habit was adopted in the days of horrible 1200 baud RS232 serial mice. Using one of those always felt to me like trying to walk when my foot's gone to sleep. (I did have one such RS232 serial mouse on which I replaced the internal ceramic resonator with one of double the frequency, which doubled the baud and reporting rate. That mouse was, in comparison, a joy to use.) |
