It's more likely a perfect example of mdma wondering who'll be first to take the bait. You win i suspect.

That's a perfect example of a fish being caught with only a line and a maggot.

"19th March 2000. The new prototype is in the process of being tested. The laborious task of powering it up in stages, developing additional logic to support features and making sure everything works as intended is under way. I am expecting 2-4 months of development time before it is at the stage where it can be release for production." -Mick Tinker

Oh, abuse. The last line of defence of a troll. Geees, you are a really boring one.

The ST, PC and Macs are just as good because they have "software sprites".


Bwahahahahaha.  For a bigger laugh look at how the kiddies ruined the correct and proper definition of sprite at Wikipedia.  I guess every character that scrolls up your screen is a sprite as far as these morons are concerned.

Heck, if you don't like the description on wikipedia then why not change the article :-?.

I still have yet to hear your masterful definition of a sprite. I really don't see much of a fundamental difference between a processor writing a character into a framebuffer and a piece of dedicated hardware writing into a linebuffer (and don't give me that Amiga's don't use linebuffers line because at the very least the Nyx prototype did). Sure all things being equal, the system with dedicated hardware will have better performance, but I don't see how that makes the two fundamentally different.

I doubt anyone ever will hear it.

Maybe, but I get sex on a regular basis, have an interesting and satisfying job, a beautiful, healthy and intelligent son, and a loving family.

You have a broken motherboard I believe.

hardware sprites really are a big deal if you are programming a game. making a game on a pc back in the day with lots of objects on screen was a paing in the butt, on the amiga and other hardware based sprite systems it is simple. set up the data set pointers and turn them on move as necissary without worring about backgrounds or forgrounds. (btw i havent programmed much on the amiga but i did on the c64 which has a similar but more limited system spritewise)
