Better yet - buy pistorm and a rpi and get graphics card for free!

It isn't available for download yet as I have to finish to write some more technical details. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh34biwfc0w LAYERS Common: * 320x256 dots * PTDQ system * RGBWa color model Background: * maximum 256 colors * horizontal scrolling Middleground: * maximum 256 colors * colors use 8-bit alpha values for the fade-in and cross-fading effects * vertical scrolling Foreground: * maximum 81 non-transparent colors * triple buffer NOTES * All the layers reside in CHIP RAM. * If the foreground did not use 100% transparent dots, its maximum number of colors would have been 256. * The horizontal scrolling requires the background layer to be at least twice as wide as the screen plus 32 dots (i.e. 16 bytes, which in all cause a waste of 16*256 = 4096 bytes of CHIP RAM). Making the layer additional D dots wider (where D is dividable by 64) would waste further D/4 bytes per line of CHIP RAM. * The background layer can be made to scroll also vertically without problems. * The Thalion logo is scaled in real time on a chunky raster which gets written to the foreground layer by means of the PTDQ C2P conversion routine PTDQ_DoC2P_R(). * The 24-bit palettes for the fade-in and cross-fading effects are pre-calculated at startup; the effects are obtained by writing each frame a whole palette to the COLORxx registers with the CPU during the vertical blanking. * The music is a tracker module played by means of P6112. * On a stock Amiga 1200, the demo runs at 50 fps. * YouTube's encoding degraded the quality.

in service to Saimo's splendid achievement,
idiotically buried by yet another couple ppcretard1's trash posts.

/m!

@MEGA_RJ_MICAL

micro mical take your pills
stop trolling

@kolla

stop trolling start working on zune

this is boring.
Commodore bankrupt because AGA has not chunky pixels
so there was no DOOM for Amiga in 1993
rest is history

sajmo stop thic crap
buy graphics card
or switch to OCS if you wish

@kolla

And not just RTG graphics capability, but fast 'HD' via the onboard SD Slot (no need for expensive FastATA or the like adaptors), Wifi & wired Network (with pi4B) without (again) expensive adaptors and soonish (hopefully) 16Bit audio via AHI and USB support, all for a low low cost and still allowing the onboard chipset to do its thing !

piStorm & EMU68 are a fantastic buyin for both A500/A500+, A2000, A600 and A1200 users offering a lot they could want nowadays

With pistorm in my A1000 I have played through both Doom and Doom2 on OCS!

@ppcamiga1

Are you really triggered that other people are enjoying their hobbies in the way they choose, or just feigning it in some attempt at the worlds weirdest trolling effort ?

Regardless I cant decide if that's a larger part hilarious or pathetic.

Please stop yourself, this is just embarrassing.

What you don’t seem to understand is that ppcamiga1 isn’t criticizing either Saimo’s or Michal Schulz’s work. He actually as any sane person would, like those very much. He’s simply keeps posting this kind of so new users who haven’t seen these threads can discover them, keeping them from fading into obscurity.

You all should look beyond the forest... xD

It's already released, so it can't participate to any compo. Plus, it's basically just an effect, not a whole demo. But thanks for considering that good!

buy graphcis card or forget of c2p and switch to OCS

PADDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
