Why no FPGA accelerator cards?
« on: December 10, 2010, 02:04:37 AM »
Are there a technical reason that we could not use FPGA's to create new amiga accelerator / processor cards ?
 
Is it more a question of investment (time and money) ?
 
Curious minds are wondering :)

Why even bother posting stats like that. Never going to happen. Compatibility with the OCS core is getting much better thanks to Yaqube's hard work but lots of subtle undocumented "features" must be implemented. Not to mention similar things for AGA. High compatibility can be aimed for... but in the short term.... you'll have to live with gfx & sound glitches and crashes not present on the real Amiga.


Thats one of the things people tend to miss. You need to account for the bugs as well as the features, in order to emulate correctly :)
