Knightmare - Released! - Page 3

to be fair, there are a couple things which came out ever so slightly different. I believe this is because of the way the game calculates its wave movement and that the Amiga version runs this every frame rather than every other frame. decided this was a small price to pay for solid 50hz gameplay.

Simply burn the "KnightmareCD32" file to a CD, stick on a startup-sequence and thats it.

Its a BETA, I didn't want to go too far with it as i'm sure Ian will do something himself, I was actually doing something else and being nosey, and somehow I got a bit carried away, 20minutes later it was running as a single file.

Obviously will also work off Hard Drive for A1200 owners or any owners with a machine with 2 meg chip ram including 68000 systems, obviously the 2meg chip ram is because of CD32.

Enjoy this little magnum opus from Hoffman and Toni Galvez, its a nice little game with some real polish, they did all the hard work, I did nothing.

Thank you so much!!! I can play it on my CD32.

The source code is also available on github for those interested.

Very great work!

I can do a whdload slave very quickly as it’s the same patching way that Metal Gear (you can run it directly with MetalGear.slave btw).

Congrats H0ffman!

He's only just done it again. Fantastic game. This is going to get some quality gameplay over the weekend. Thank you Hoffman, you're a genius.

It's the Vampire V2 accelerator for the A1200.

About same price as a stock A1200 mate.

(Sorry, I'll probably go to hell for that but Galahad set me up for the volley)

Does it work from the adf?

I bet it doesn't.

I disabled caches, I bet the Vampire can ignore that and try and run at full speed anyway!

Anubis · 15 January 2022, 04:53

This looks great. Thank you. Will test it on MiSTer FPGA.

Try to use Run500 or JST to run the game:

Beautiful port, really CONGRATULATIONS!
It's nice to have game classics like this on Amiga floppies ...

A note of merit I leave it to HOFFMAN who as always brings out a stellar sound. I always thought the PAULA chip from the AMIGA was a great thing, but in his hands it becomes more.

I did a live test on AMIGA 1200 with Vampire1200, everything works transparently.

Really fun watching people playing this on streams. And the music is really crazy amazing.

My boot block disables caches and ensures the VBR is $0 so I hope that it works. But it's a Vampire, I only tested on real hardware
