Quake

[TheGoose]

I did, quite dissapointing I must say. But check out the other vid of Quake 3 running on a classic, much, much faster.

linky?

Wow, so to me, that's pretty good. But to be a total picky pants, that was too fast; just a big jumble of explosions to me (my old eyes). I like the slower pace of the original quake I and II (ii is my favorite).

Arena crap just went retardo to me. I'll be working on my 4.1C install tonight.

just run it in 1024x768!

Does Quake work on Sam?

[ribdevil1]

Only one word "YES"

[utri007]

My result demo1 are

040 40mhz 6,16fps
060 66mhz 9,36fps

Both are aga, annoying is that timedemo doesn't stop, I need to watch it so see results

Both are AGA, 320x200 8bit

Timedemo gives good view to general game play, but is annoying to do

Here are some more timerefresh benchmarks:

Clickboom 060 exe with 060 66mhz  

aga 15,1
rtg 11,8 (11,82)

Clickboom original exe

aga 13,4
rtg 11 (10,98)

AQuake

aga 10,1 rtg didn't work??

So it is quite much faster with aga, but with rtg less than 1 fps?

Also 040 and 060 difference seems to be quite near mhz=fps??

IF somebody with coding skills read this? I would like to addvertice this http://mikro.naprvyraz.sk/download.htm

Atari 68k duke nukem sources, made with C, much more sophisticated than original amiga duke and more opitimized. SO would you like to check it?

it is the reality
68k cpus are slow for quake
check this video

A1200 ppc 175mhz vodoo 3
seems 38 fps timedemo demo1

in fact there was a quake ppc version available on aminet that clickboom said was illegal
and was removed from aminet servers long time ago
that quake ppc version did between 40-50 fps on AGA....depending on the which ppc

thats not right.. it did give a high framerate (something like 18fps on aga with ppc/166mhz) but surely not 40. I know coz I still have that port.

that's because you have the slowest ppc on the Amiga
I tested that on a cyberstorm with 604E 233mhz in the A4000
the 604E 233 is much faster than 603E 166 (about 2x speed or more )
I do not remember very well exact numbers and I havent the hardware anymore to confirm but if anyone with PPC hardware can post results will be great

[pondosinatra]

Tell us your quake fps with that system? I belive that Picasso 4 is one of the best cards made for amiga. It is proven that it doesn't give any performance increase compared to zorro 2 vs. zorro 3

Sorry, I didn't get around to testing. I'll get to it this week sometime. That said, based on I read here there's no way in hell I'll get to play it a decent resolution. Which sucks. But still, the fact that it was even released for the Amiga is pretty cool IMO.

Maybe Steam will port Portal for the Amiga

Which would be good because it keeps crashing on my PC

[Piru]

Maybe Steam will port Portal for the Amiga

You know the difference between Steam and Valve?

It was my old card

Well, if someone wants to try I can send over the executable!

One more try: does anyone have the first illegal Quake port that started this whole Quake thing on Amiga? it was called coolQuake I think.

I can try it out.
Just upload the files to a filehosting site or somthing like that and PM me the link.

Doesn't the valve let the steam out? :lol:

Careful, or you'll be explaining "valve time"

the first illegal Amiga port of quake 68k was done in 1997 in Montevideo/Uruguay by a guy called MAX ...he done it in his A4000 + spectrum gfx card
it not was called coolquake....I still have this ancient port

 but the history started in 1997 when by mistake quake sources were scattered around the web...this guy MAX download them and stared the Amiga port in 1997
in same year Clickboom contacted him and purchased his work that was almost 90% done and working
then in 1998 clickboom retouched the port and realize it legal for the Amiga

The interesting history of this is the illegal thing...because the illegal sources
in 1999 another guy made a PPC port and uploaded it to aminet
Clickboom protest to aminet cause the new PPC port interfered with own business and was deleted from all Aminet servers
but it was not illegal for me....
where is the illegality? if sources were scattered and the authors made the ports for fun?
if anyone can explain
