BOR is available for MorphOS, OS4 and now ported to WarpOS.

This URL is a nice place with a lot of MODs for use with Beats Of Rage (BOR).

Now, you can play it in your A1200PPC :)

Yes, is very slowly loading becouse its uses all cpu usage (68k for load and ppc for decrunching), you need the max speed on your 68k/PPC and of course, the max mb/s tranfers like a idefix buffer or FastATA or similar card. The A1 load in seconds becouse have the ide controller FASTER and the CPU FASTER compared with any A1200/A4000 :) but the good news, is when the game start work very very fast is you have a 200mhz+ ppc card and a fast graphic card (BVision/Voodoo3)

Out of interest, which filesystem you are using?

On A1, the loading is very slow on FFS (without cache plugin) or from RAM: (!). But with SFS, it loads very quickly.

How big is it? For some reason Aweb and ibrowse doesn't report the size of this file. I have a slow connection and i need to know this.

this file is only 120k, but you'll need to download the full game thats about 53meg+.  I gave up with trying to play this, it was still trying to load 1hr 30minz still stuck at the 'kula'cacheing

Are you still using FFS? If you are, get rid of it and install PFS or SFS. You can increase the disk buffers to, let's say, 500 to get a small speedup.
 Anyway, would i ask too much if i ask the url for the full game? :)

People with SFS, how large buffers (addbuffers) do you have and what is the blocksize of your partition?

Title: Re: Beats Of Rage WarpOS
Post by: Framiga on August 02, 2005, 05:53:27 PM

SFS 1.239 - CSPPC604 at 200 Mhz with 060 at 60 Mhz.

Blocksize 1024
Dosbuffers 500
Read-ahead cache 32x32768 (Copyback)


on CSPPC uw (SCA HD 10000 rpm)

It takes 10 minutes to enter in the intro more 5 minutes or so of "Loading..."

I'm trying on a PFS3 partition but for some strange reason, it freezes the system during "cacheing . . ."

Weird, because yesterday i've use it on this PFS partition . . . i'll try to reinstall the archive.
