Tis sad that there is no JIT type support on PPC. Amiga can't emulate Amiga as well as Windows...

so you telling me that a 400Mhz PowerPC CPU with 128MB ram cant play game for a 14MHz 020 with 2MB Ram?

you goto be kidding me :lol:

even if it takes alot of CPU power to emulate OCS AGA and Paula how can it run nice on this little GP2X?


As im saying all you need is small morphos or linux base system with minimal drivers for sound network cpu and gfx card and very basic gui with email photo viewer

Im almost positive that a 400Mhz PowerPC cpu and radeon 128 mb and 128mb ram can run old amiga games perfectly

Plus the videos above are from a very old version 0.6.2 of UAE4All similar to the xbox one.

The new one is version 0.6.4

Bet the new one is miles better!



Its goto be possible:roll:

Exactly. If you had any clue how complex tasks UAE has to do, you would know this too.

Anyway, this is pointless. You will not get it.

For £20 you can get a good Amiga on ebay for that. Much cheaper than an EFIKA and it works definitely.

AMIGA 1200 | Vampire 1200 II | 128 MB RAM | Indivision AGA Mk3 | 256 GB SD | AmigaOS 3.2.2
AMIGA 600 | Vampire 600 II | 128 MB RAM | Indivision ECS Mk3 | 256 GB SD | AmigaOS 3.2.2

Yes but you cant run ppc linux & MorphOS aswell on old amiga 68k

Plus I already have 1200 to play on

With EFIKA you could do much more like play all types of consoles pcengine gba snes sega which you cant do on a stock a1200

The point of the conversation was to see if UAE would run an old amiga game or OS3.1 3.5 or 3.9 on Efika with Linux or MOS at an acceptable level.

We are telling you that it maybe might not have the power to emulate smoothly an Amiga system (7Mhz or 14Mhz CPU, custom graphics chipset, custom audio system, and many hardware devices that makes the Amiga a complex piece of art). As Piru said, UAE does what is quite a complex task and believe me, years ago, an Amiga emulator on PC was thought as impossible.

Its possible...

The Amiga 500 1200 isnt complex art..... what a load of rubbish.

I Pentium 166MMX can run an amiga game at acceptable levels!

Your having a laugh man!


THE EFIKA WILL HAVE UAE AND WILL PLAY OLD AMIGA GAMES PERFECTLY.....

IF GP2X CAN DO IT... EFIKA CAN!

 :lol:  :lol:

Should be able also to play pc engine snes gba sego nintendo etc and even old macos!

@Paradox

How about you actually try running UAE on EFIKA before making these rather ignorant statements?

Like SamuraiCrow and XDelusion already pointed out, there is no JIT for PPC UAE.

This Paradox guy is a dealer (if you can imagine), he should have access to EFIKA. But as everyone can tell, he hasn't actually ran UAE on EFIKA.

Im not getting my own till MorphOS is released for it.

I think your not getting the point.

Maybe now if you run E-UAE over a big bloated linux with swap files and allsorts. it will not run right..


But with MorphOS or a very light minimal Linux it should be OK.

Piru stop being stupid.

If you wanna talk to me talk on IRC im here now.


Merry Christmas!

going to eat christmas dinner :lol:

So basically you haven't ever used EFIKA at all, and you're just making this all up?

Have you ever used UAE on your Pegasos II G4?

And I'm telling you EFIKA just doesn't have enough horsepower for UAE. Some very simple & light games might run somewhat acceptably, but anything more interesting requires faster system.

@Paradox,

I really don't think Piru is being stupid, "au contraire". He is making a lot of sense, as always.  He's wise and says what he thinks, sometimes in a direct way.

Anyway, looking at your profile ;) we can be assured that soon you're going to prove that we are all wrong about the efika.
