Title: Elude demo(s) Rage!
Post by: Dr.Bongo on March 08, 2013, 07:51:34 PM

I can't seem to get ANY Elude demos to run on my A4k. All it does is give me sound and a black screen. I've tried installs of 3.1 and 3.9 and turning my cv64 resolution off back to PAL.

 Any ideas?

p.s all other demos run fine.

Elude demos dont like RTG for some reason, although their nfo states they support it.
Run it with -aga flag (force AGA) and it will be fine (or boot to CLI without RTG drivers loaded and run from there).

I see from your sig you have 060@50, dont expect these demos to run as smooth as you see in various YouTube videos...

Man, that's depressing.
An 060@50 isn't fast enough?
What the heck are they targeting?

WinUAE is what they target. Not a lot of them use real hardware anymore.

I love demos and winuae etc but doesn't it kinda defeat the point if they can't run smooth on a 50mhz 060 which is the standard top spec if you know what I mean ie before overclocking of a real Amiga

Thank you very much! that did the trick. Even a 50mhz they don't run too bad :)
