Quick heads-up on my next AGA 68k project :)
Got it running for the first time on my Miggy the other night so I did a little video to celebrate.
It's taken about 3 months work to get it this far.

Before anyone starts going on about how slow it is, yes BETA 1 == SLOW ;)
You can read all about this new port on the EAB project thread (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=885229#post885229)
And doesn't my WB look cool :)

Wow - I wasn't even aware of Descent Rebirth. However, your work is incredible!
-
I agree !
you also spend quite some times on amiquake and amiquake2, not to mention scummvm so a big thank you is well desserved !
-
Thank you NovaCoder! I do hope you solve the issue with broken sword in the future :D

Nice addon to 68k amigas, it is very playable with 040 40mhz and better machines already. What new this version offer?

I haven't read all the blurb on their site but I can see that it supports 3rd party missions, texture packs and also has support for compressed audio (for music I think).
It's also been bug-fix and the code has been cleaned up, the original DOS code was a complete nightmare to work with!

By the way and sorry off topic, but has you looked sources of Atari Falcon vesrion of Duke 3D? Looks very fast, they has cleaned code a lot, or at least they say so :)

This would be a better bet for 68k AGA I think Chocolate Duke3D (https://github.com/fabiensanglard/chocolate_duke3D)

Sweet!!! Heheh...NovaCoder can you port this for the Amiga 1200/4000 AGA please??!

Is there a generic version of build engine? That would allow games like
Witchaven
Duke Nukem 3D
PowerSlave
Witchaven II: Blood Vengeance
Blood
Shadow Warrior
Though even plain Duke 3D engine would allow some unseen games for Amiga, like
Extreme Paintbrawl
NAM
Redneck Deer Huntin'
Redneck Rampage
Redneck Rampage Rides Again
WWII GI
I have understand that port wich is already for 68k cpus would be easier than others? And Duke 3D source is complete mess, would require very patient über genius to make it work fast.

Spiffy! Does it support external MIDI?

I'm not sure if the engine does? I'm afraid it won't be very high on my priority list anyway, I'm after something fast and stable and then anything else on top of that will be only if I've got the time.
Check this link for more info on what the base engine supports -> http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/ (http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/)
The first 2 times I tried to port this to AGA I couldn't get anything that was stable, I tried porting the base engine and also Hyperion's port but couldn't get anywhere so I switched to this port.

I think this port is almost ready for release :)
It's not running as fast as I'd hoped after all the work I've done optimizing it, I've still got a little more assembler to add which may help. It's always hard to get these ports running well on 68k when they are developed for much more powerful hardware (you wouldn't believe how many redundant screen updates are made by default).
If I can find the energy, I will also port Descent DXX-Rebirth 2 to AGA 68k (same basic code base).

I was ACTUALLY going to say that that girl's gun is kind of small....
referring to your wallpaper !

YOU DA MAN NOVA :pint::knuddel::drink:

Thanks guys :)
Should be on AmiNet in the next week or so....

Ok, I've stuck it on AmiNet.
The bad news is that I can't get it to run as quick as I'd have hoped for, the render-loop is not really that efficient and it's obviously aimed at higher-end systems.
It's playable on my setup but anything less won't be much fun.

This is now the second application I've ported that uses the new AGA SDL, hopefully we'll see some more soon!
-
I've had another go and making this beast run faster on AGA 68k. I've also done a basic RTG release for you big-box boys.

I'll upload the latest version to AmiNet in the next few days...

Nice addon to 68k amigas, it is very playable with 040 40mhz and better machines already. What new this version offer?
And there's the rub, an '040 or an '060 as the target base?
