Xtreme Racing and WinUAE
« on: December 06, 2003, 06:01:58 PM »
Hi,

Is there anyway to get xtreme racing to run at a decent speed under winuae?

I have a Athlon 3200+ and cpu usage sits at about 35% when running winuae which itself says is running at 50fps solid. xtreme racing however gets about 6fps even in 2*2 mode. Ive tried tweaking uae settings myself and used the aga games config from AIAB but no luck

Any suggestions?

regards

Darren

well yes I get 25fps out of the 25mhz 040 on my ppc in 1*1 2/3 screen size on my 28" tv but would like to play it at my computer desk on my pc thats all :)

yer saw that cd on ebay, may get it although i have about 100 tracks for xtr that i have downloaded anyway :)

used to play xtr constantly when at uni. Best computer game I have ever bought. Just started playing it again as I have a working 1200 once more. Not put the latest patch onto it yet though after downloading it on PC. I have the first upgrade on there at the moment where the computer cars stopping shooting each other. Did they fix this in a later patch? I have v1.1 Beta to try out so maybe its better in that.

Ah I remember telling my parents that the £220 I bribed out of them 8 years ago for my blizzard 020/28mhz with 4 megs was to help my uni work, document writing etc, more truthfully was the fact it made xtr a damm site quicker than the 020 14mhz with no fast ram   :-D

hmm slam tilt. Just tried that and it runs 100% perfect in winuae, dammit have to go to pub tonight though! :) it even swaps hi/low res fine. I can only presume that the chunky planar stuff xtr does is too much for winuaes current aga emulation code
