MAD speeds in WinUAE!

Amiga1992 · 10 September 2001, 21:59

For whinners: this is the kind of speeds I get when running WinUAE on my P133 with 32MB of RAM and a Diamond Stealth 3D 3000 vidcard. [check out that FPS counter!]

I SWEAR I didn't edit this pic! A prize to the one who guesses wtf happened

My PC, as I always say, is on LSD and Speed.

Maybe your PC drank one of your "Energy" Drinks

The FPS count didn't redraw properly so two numbers (from possibly 2 different progs) got muddled up together?

Or maybe you're computer decided it was too slow before

If U don't mind my asking-which version of WinUAE, & was the sound enabled?

I haven't budged from using WinUAE 08.8r8.
I've tried the 08.14 versions but they seemed far slower & the well documented choppy sound issues.

Granted I've only got a lowly Celeron 266 myself, so I until I'm able to get a major speed boost I don't think I'll be bothering with WinUAE 08.16 r4 or later somehow!!

Hmmm, I set up a nice Workbench with WinUAE 0.8.16R4 and if I use SysInfo to determine speed, it gives me a 68040 with 397 MHZ !!!!!!!!!! That´s pretty fast

I can view mpgs with that hell of a Emulation with no flicker or slowdowns at all

Hmm maybe you are using one of the betas which doesn't display the FPS count properly

Retroman, which mpeg video and audio datatypes do you use?

Amiga1992 · 11 September 2001, 18:15

No, actually my computer has this strange.. errmm... let's call it 'problem' .

The CPU, when its temperature is too cold, lieks to go on what I call 'warp mode' and gives me this kind of shit. A lot of teh computer is render inoperable but it seems emulators like it a lot and give those results!

Really amazing

Akira, some games require the Approximate A500 speed resp. "Match A500 speed" setting, otherwise they run too fast.
Give it a try.

Amiga1992 · 11 September 2001, 21:59

No, it's my CPU bombing out. No way in hell Id get 2000+ FPS! Other emulators do the same.

uhm, not sure about the datatypes, just using AHI sound and FROGGER with any MPEG video I´ll find

Don't take any notice of SysInfo under WinUAE. It is not accurate at all. Although I quite like the speed program that comes with Amiga in a Box. I can't remember the name of it but it seems to give quite good results.

Well, when using APROX A500 SPEED, Sysinfo gives me 7,41 Mhz. so it´s quite excact, without JIT (0.8.14R?) SysInfo gives me 99 Mhz. on a 68020 and since even PAYBACK (newer Amiga game) runs FAAAAAST on WinUAE i think SysInfo determines the correct speed anyway
