0.63 Progress Update
« on: May 13, 2007, 09:09:41 PM »
Hey, just to update you all on the progress we are making. We had planned to release, very soon, but we have had a problem, so its taking abit longer than planned. We want to get this issue resolved first before releasing.

The speed increase is good. As is the usable memory increase (up to 10 Megs).
Below is a sample of speed tests.

The speed increase is looking very promising.  ;D

I hope a release isnt too far off now (once you sorted out the probs youve encountered)?


The homebrew scene is looking v good at the mo with updates coming up for PSPUAE, N64, a final instalment of the Snes emu, A new quake build, pikey, mapthis etc etc. ... happy days. :)

Hi there,

Nice to know this!

Please, if possible, update with more games  - if that does not hold  the development! :)


Thanks for all your trouble updating this. It shows great commitment on such a long term project!

Keep up the good work!

Do you mean update with more savestates?

If so, i didnt see the point at the moment, as the new release will have a converter packaged with it. As all old states need converting to work with new release.

Hi Fol!

I was just talking about testing it with more games for us to check the speed increase. In games like Pinball Dreams or Speedball 2...


BTW, was your test was made with frameskip 0? Are those Min and Max FPS done that way?

Thanks again for your hard work and dedication to the noble cause of the AMIGA.

hi, didnt plan to test with more games at the moment, as those were agreed as the main 3 games for testing.

Yes all tests are done with 0 Frameskip.

Basically, with this will release we should see an increase in speed for just about every game, so there is no need for testing other games if 3 already tested games show similar results. I might do a few tests on my favourite games and post the results here just for peoples interest, but would be of no use to anyone really.

FOL and CMF have done some great work recently and I would just like to say a big CHEERS to both of them

*cough cough* you forgot GnoStiC. Ric and Thinkp are also still working behind the scene's

I should also mention the problem we are having. The main issue is with memory, with the lastest bug fix (memory wise) it gives a drop in speed. So need to look at ways of solving this.

i forgot to ask, whats the diffrence between  the Speed   -  CHIPSET 100%   &  MAX ?

 CHIPSET 100%  seems to have better speed than MAX.. will there be an option between them or?

there already is. I'm going to make the bold assumption its in the README.

have a look at the CPU settings, and you'll see you can set the CPU: to MAX (maximum full emulation speed) or CPU , with a % value that determines the balance of emulation priority between the cpu and the chipset (this can introduce discrepancies in the game)

Nice.
Must say, have starting using the pspuae again, and its very impressive when see how good it has became. It works so well and easy to use. Savestate works superb, and almost (acutally would say all, but I havent thest all .adf, yet ;)) all rom/.adf works really nice. Though, some game arent that playable due it has music that are quite annoying when it laag, but still most games works like a charm.

Keep it up! 

EDIT: Actually, one of the main reason I did bought a PSP like ~2years ago was beacuse of this site: http://kaillera.com/pspuae/
Very happy to see the AmigaEMU (even if this one has no relation with the previous one) are still making great progress with new updates.
