New AGA SDL Development

NOva

This is the most excellent news! I saw your thread on EAB and potential games like Ultima 7 being ported. That would be really fun, as i'm no big fan of fps games.

To me probably the most exciting thing is the Netsurf port i'm dying for decent browser for my a1200.

The only thing i'm concerned about is how slow SDL will be. Considering how slow it is even on Amiga NG platform with powerful (relatively) processors...

Kalms is the man. He's the coder behind a lot of scene demos right?

[magnetic]

TBL thats right. One of the best amiga demo crews imho. He worked with other crews to sometimes like keiro did/does.

Do you have an projected time to complete the port?

Its amazing all you have done for AGA amigas. If we had 3 more devs like you wow!

hey royal crown hows it going man? What do you mean "doomy" not that tosser from oregon? Look man i've been heavy involved in this platform on a few different levels. I really care and the way  I was treated by both EAB and Amibay is a damn shame. (Life ban first offense both sites... so looks like they themselves proves my theory about their Gestapo/Stasi like tactics!

@Nova

I'm so excited for netsurf aga!! w000ttt

I believe he (and others) left because Pyro shutdown the domain for a day as a protest about something.

why are you assuming to know why Piru hasnt been around? He's probably crazy busy the guy is a real life programmer.


@warwazon

Thanks for the update. Very exciting. I hope it becomes usable soon becuase nowadays I download a lot of stuff on my laptop dump to pcmcia reader and then into my a1200 from there. I'd like a usable browser for 68k.

Mongo I see sorry Nicholas

Wow for PIru to be pissed like that it takes a lot. He seems like a really easy going guy. (unlike me lol)

[magnetic]

Man, just when I thought we were close to Netsurf AGA for classics...  Surely a bounty would inspire someone to do this?

[magnetic]

Wow this is really exciting finally a newish browser for 68k classics. I'll have to try it. It looks pretty darn slow but lets hope for some optimizations.

[magnetic]

I suposse Nova's files will mean a faster NetSurf. Also Arti was looking about how to get rid of Ixemul. My best wishes to him/that.

Retro you REALLY NEED TO GET AN FPU lmao

[magnetic]

Nova you are an AGA MEGAHERO!

[magnetic]

Hey nova
Congrats. Looks like the speed is decent. After some optimization it should be totally playable right?

To all the 030 whiners GET AN 060
