Rain TBL - A1200 + 030 50Mhz
Hiya,
Can't seem to get this sucker to run at more than 1mph on my 1200...anyone managed it or does it really need an 040/060 to perform? Thanx ![]() |

hi all,
i've tested this demo on my old 1240/40 terc a few years ago and rain worked properly, but without the nominal speed, it ran but slowly I've recently tested "rain" with a 1260 and there is no comparaisons. Rain is designed only for 060 boards !! definitively... |

yeah right ... they'll recompile it just so that you can run it on yer 030
![]() making 060 demos run on inferior hardware is not whdloader's biz. what they do is patch older stuff (pre 040-060) run on 040-060. they certainly don't recompile stuff. |

No I don't think I was having any issues with it after all, I think the problem is trying to find some 030 code (eg AGA demos) that actually uses the FPU ![]() I'm still glad I brought it though because I can always compile my own stuff to use it ![]() |

![]() As Wepl has forwarded your request to me I'm gonna have a look. However, I'll only fix the timing (a.s.o) bugs of the demo. To make it run faster on your 1230 isn't just a matter of "recompiling the demo"! It would require the effects to be totally recoded as 030 and 060 require totally different optimising techniques! To cut a long story short, if you want Rain to run smooth, watch it on 060, as simple as that! Last edited by StingRay; 19 January 2009 at 10:44. Reason: typo/grammar fixed |

It's just optimized to run optimally on the 060, the code doesn't need to make use of any exclusive instructions for that.
