Amiga (CD32) & voxels
« on: November 30, 2003, 03:40:33 PM »
You know, the engine used in Novalogic games like Comanche
Couldn't that be realised on a unupgraded Amiga (A1200, CD32)?

Because the Amiga is fast @planar, with the CD32 specially designed to handle those chunky thingies to planer you'd say that 'd be fast too

@Andre.Siegel
Those specs seem to me reasonable

But if I am looking at a game like ElfMania, there are a hell of a lot independently moving pixels to be drawn . And that's running on a 1mb A500
Let's see, the A500 came out in 1988 and the A1200 in 1992, so after 4 years, a hell of a lot more pixels could be drawn couldn't it?
