Amazing! Good luck, good work and all, just don't be surprised when the purists all attack for the "128MB RAM minimum".
I consider this proof that nothing good can be done without resources. Proof that for AmigaOS to become anything real, you people have to abandon your stupid cries of "give me everything... in under 15 megabytes!".

This all will change with os4, cause it will have virtual memory.

Thats the reason why it needs 128mb, cause AmigaOS as it is now has no virtualmemory so it needs lot of ram instead....

second reason is that quake2 is damn bloaty, way to big.... Just look at the games made for n64, most games wasnt even 20megs big, still was amazing....

Total filesize forthe whole  mario64 was around 8megs.... what is quake2?? 200-500 megs??

N64’s texture maps are blurry compared with the original PC releases.


Yeah blurry compared to todays games, n64 is now outdated, no fancy 3d card or anything.....

Still dosent justify 2gigs more...

i have nothing against ppl expressing their views, after all this is a discussion board..... But act like you know all, we dont know a ####, just because he/she has a different view than you, that pisses me off.

If you like windoze, then sick with it, no need to call us who use amiga and believe in it dumb...
