Yum, new release very soon. Maybe Turrican 3 will run at a decent framerate now? =P

...not that it really matters since there's Mega Turrican, but still... Kinda irked me that T3 runs on about 8 frameskip...

Join the club, I really want to play Captain Planet,

. Its still not playable, but its getting there, now runs at 6 to 8 FS, with 100% Chipset,

. Oh and Aquaventura, thats a cool game just not playable,

.

Right, back to getting this release sorted.

Just to update, im going to have to release 2 versions, 1 with Boosted CPU speed and 1 without Boosted CPU speed.
Simply because, with speeded up CPU, it can cause slight gfx glitch in a small percentage of stuff, i.e. Workbench (black bar on left of screen) and Populous 2 (left side of static command panel is messed up). So for stuff like this, you would need to you the other version, which has a slight speed increase on 0.63BE.

They will both be identified by V0.70 and V0.70B (B will be the Boosted CPU speed). I didnt want to do it this way, but without out help from any other devs, this is the best i can do.

You will be happy to hear, after adding Ric's new FAME/C FrameSkip logic, V0.70B holds to 50FPS much better and runs rather well. Doesnt run to fast or to slow any more when using Auto FrameSkip. I bow down to Ric, glad he done what he did, as we wouldnt have some of the improvements we have without his code.

Next post should be release,

OUCH!!!!! my ears, dont shout, lol.

Yes both work great on Speeded up CPU version, i was testing them yesterday with new FrameSkip logic, they were both very playable.

DamimavPL · February 23, 2008, 03:38:34 PM

Sorry about BIG letters

OK then i will waiting to new release.

FOL · February 23, 2008, 04:51:51 PM

Right, turns out the gfx glitch has been picked up some where along the way.

So im having to go through the whole code, this may take a few hours,

. However I would rather 1 version working as it should, so please hang in there.

EDIT:- Im just glad is wasnt any of the speed increase changes, lets hope i can fly through the code and fix it a.s.a.p.

Just to update you, glitch fixed and we are very close now, just tidying a few things up, like readme etc etc. Then we will be ready.
