- Hello democoders,
-
- have you ever thought about coding an intro/demo system-
- friendly ?
-
- I think, that any Amiga with graphiccard has twice and more
- the power the AGA chipset has; especially on ZIII-Amigas.
- For me as an A2030/25MHz owner with Picassao II gfxcard I'm of the
- opinion, that things like Phongs and bitmaptextures should be
- possible to run on a graphic-cardscreen.
- The only things missing is the copper, but I think there is less
- usage of it in modern effectroutines ?
-
- I ported one of my old vectorroutines to systemfriendly usage
- of gfx-lib calls on a Picasso II screen and I didn't noticed any
- problems even when running in 256 colors (internal Chunkymode !).
-
- See Gloom running systemfriendly !!
-
- So, wouldn't it be possible to do AGA graphicroutines on a gfxcard ?
- The only speedproblem could be ZII with less than 3.5 MB/s, but is
- the AGA-chipram really faster ??
-
-
- Please reply to prophet@wizzcat.prima.ruhr.de, because I don't
- read this newsgroups everyday.
-
- Yours,
-
- Jens aka Prophet/Wizzcat.

-
- See you at The Gathering'95 .....
