Hello there

I'm testing MorphOS today for the first time in my Mac Mini, and I'm trying to find out if it has the legendary smooth Amiga graphics. So I downloaded this nice free game, and starter playing after installing the latest powerSLD libraries.

I'm using a 60Hz screen mode, and I've configured SDL to use SDL-Screens instead of Ambient screen: that makes tearing deffects dissapear, luckily.

but scroll is al jumpy! What refresh frequency does this game expect for smooth scrolling??
Is Giddy3 a 50HZ game like the previous ones??
Thanks!


I think this is more about the coding of the game than about the OS.
Downloaded from here?

Smooth scrolling on the Nintendo Wii


I would guess that the game is coded to be easily portable, and that some optimizations have been done for the Wii port.
Mac Mini G4 (1.5GHz, 64MB VRam, 1GB Ram): MorphOS 3.6
Powerbook 5.8 (15", 1.67GHz, 128MB VRam, 1GB Ram): MorphOS 3.8.

Windows-free since 2011-2014 (Damn you Netflix!)
