Well, in my opinion, when below 2 demos found in "strange issues" will work same as on a real Amiga then that will be 100%. Meeting Intro (Intro) by Disknet -> http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=358 Liquid-Glenz (Demo) by Maniacs -> http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=369 Quote:
Now, there is only letter "Z" left to finish ... so will see if there is something unexpected waiting to be discovered. |

EDIT: it flickers if 0.5+0.5, it does not if 1M chip. "Slow" ram has exact same speed as chip ram so perhaps demo has some weird bug or something. |

I have just finished with verifying A500 OCS/ECS demos/intros (mostly), so its time for small summary:
In last >15 weeks has been tested >10.200 A500 OCS/ECS demos/intros ... what would mean cca 100 demos/intros per day. Yeah, it sounds now too much crazy and masochistic, but at beginning I planned to test only a small number of demos - even not more than a few hundreds, but this happened, so from now all could enjoy an improved WinUAE A500 CE emulation ... and also all this thanks to Toni who has managed to solve/fix the most of problems found in emulation. Thanks again Toni. With this ends the period of intensive testing demo/intros ... and what still has not been tested in this round, are all other categories like crack intros, music demos, packdisks, slideshows, diskmagazines and etc., even some of has already been tested but in a negligible number. Happy New Year to everyone !!! |

Wow, thats really great ... so both is now confirmed to working/behaving same on a real Amiga, except for Meeting Intro when it running on a real Amiga with 1mb chip seems to not glitches, but on emulation QS A500 ECS 1mb it still glitches.
Anyway, all in all, still very impressive achievement regarding accuracy in Amiga 500 emulation. It seems I forgot to mention yesterday the last demo left in "most likely CPU emulator timing" issues: Demo by Dope -> http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=423 I have tested it little more today: after it starts on screen and from some 18 seconds the logo glitches very quickly ... I have also counted when this glitches happens in seconds: 18, 23 ... 40, 45 ... 67 ... 81 ... 98 ... 113 ...149 ... 157 ... etc. Now wondering does it behaves same on a real Amiga ?! |

EDIT: Also the demo is from mid. 1994 -> http://janeway.exotica.org.uk/release.php?id=10031 ... and also works fine in emu on A500+ (ECS Full) ... It could be that its not made for A500 at all ?! |

JFI ... I was yesterday testing some demos from "blitter active" issues and notice following changes in behaving: Pax Americana by Complex -> garbage looks now different than before ! Expiration (Demo) by Mayhem -> glitches also looks different now than before ! Vector Bobs (Demo) by It -> no more garbage in scrolltext now ! p.s. Regarding demo Meeting Intro (Intro) by Disknet, we mostly focused on glitches from rotating cube ... but there is also happens some garbage in scrolling text below it, and it sometimes return again to normal ... does the same garbage on scrolling text happens on a real Amiga ?!

Yeah, probably those glitches are not worth the effort. Good decision.

Legalize It 2 (Musicdisk) by Anarchy -> http://janeway.exotica.org.uk/release.php?id=9007
A500 most common ... pic.1 !!! EDIT: Yes, it seems to happens random ... but couldnt duplicate it on f.e. an older WinUAE 2.0.1 version !!! EDIT2: It starts to happen on winuae.zip test version from 2013-12-15 9:47 ... in previous test version 2013-12-11 19:58 and also official 2.7.0 it works fine. (p.s. How to duplicate: press Ctrl+Amiga+Amiga ... at least after 3rd reset time it should happen.) Last edited by amilo3438; 30 December 2013 at 22:29. |
