Eyetech Group Ltd have released a new
press release, with a
factual clarification of similarities and differences between the AmigaOne 1200 &
4000, the Predator, GRex and Mediator boards.
It has to be said that this is probably highly controversial material,
and that interested customers should also seek third party advice, especially
as far as Eyetech's opinion on the Mediator is concerned.

:>Those are the same old games and demos that break on things like AGA
:>machines and any OS version more recent than 1.3. Nothing to do with
:>68K emulation.
.
:No, I can run these things in my A1200/060 with some help from
:degraders, TUDE, Relokick 1.3 and so on :)
:My point is that these solutions are way too "hacky" to work frawlessly in
:an emul.
How do you know that? If you can emulate a 68K 100% on PPC (and there's
no technical reason why you can't), then even the "hacks" will be
emulated, so the game/demo will work fine. Remember, we're not talking
about emulating the entire Amiga, just the CPU. Any hacking involving the
custom chips is entirely unaffected.
:I have UAE in my x86 box, it works 'ok' most of the time,
[snip]
:but there's always some glitches here and there: missing song in stage n,
:corrupted background in end level, and so on...:-\
Do you think that's due to non-perfect emulation of the Amiga system,
or faulty 68K emulation? I would say the former; the 68K series is
very well documented and understood. There are lots of 68K emulators...
MAME, Genesis, SNES, Macs, etc. |
