So, as far as 2D animation is concerned, your judgement is not true : the emulated Amiga is not more refined despite its differences, but less refined. If it was more refined I would agree with you : but animation is essential, and it is the only reason why I still have to use a real Amiga although I would prefer to use emulators.
You speak such rubbish! I promise you that if you ever come to London, I can show you Perfect Amiga emulation on my MacBook Pro using WinUAE on WindowsXP SP2. I will use WinUAE as it's better than E-UAE.
I will gladly meet you and show you.
No he speaks the truth.
I run winua on Athlon X2 4800+ with geforce 8600 graphics card. I still can't get PAL animations to play as smoothly as on an A1200.
Try running Scala under Winuae and watch the screen tear as it tries to scroll effects on and off. Trying running SSA animations or anim8 formats and then you'll really see the emulator fall behind.
And I still think a 256-color PAL overscan hand drawn "scene" artwork on a 1084 looks far more vibrant than the same thing viewed on an emulator hires display.
Winuae gives a faster RTG Amiga, but the feel of the mouse pointer movement is miles off the real thing. If you use software that came from the time when the Amiga was trying to be a PC ie the era of 24 bit windowing graphics software like Arteffect, Photogenics, TV Paint, and 3d Doom-alikes then the emulator has the horsepower to perform faster, but the feel isn't the same.
