My mouse still has it's ball so thats not it. And the Amiga still uses the Boing Ball so thats not it. So thats two balls so i think you may be wrong v85.

Does that mean you are saying the Amiga is dead??

O.k. so the PPC isn't being dropped but the if the Sonnet and the Shark are the same then the Shark is already a dead end bit of hardware and once the stock is gone then thats it. In fact if they are...

Just read elsewhere that if your theory on the SharkPPC and Sonnet Crescendo are right then we're stuffed anyway as they are no longer in production and isn't the PPC being dropped?

I've just taken a look at the Sonnet Crecendo and the shark and they are two different beasts. Apart from that Elbox have the cheapest at $450.00 (around £230.00) but because it's a PCI card if you...

The reality is that as the Amiga hardware market is so small (Harrison himself says he uses an Amiga under emulation most of the time)that any company who produces any accelerator no matter what the...

O.K. I've risen to the bait. The whole Amiga scene has no software development and the whole platform of Amiga is purely a fan hobbyist sideline. Coldfire will make no difference to that neither will...

It should be better with a PPC but as VICE is a port and most likely a port using AmigaOne hardware it's not surprising. If i was a better programmer i'd have a look at trying to optimise VICE for...

VICE under WarpOS is somewhat experimental and tempremental. Frodo is a no go no matter what you have if you hjave a classic Amiga. It's slow and sluggish.

Looks like we can conclude that VICE...

It'll be more intersting to see how many windows with different emulators running the same game you can get running at the same time without affecting performance.

At last i've managed to get MagiC64 up and running under 3.9 (turns out i had to edit the icon so that it was to run in shell rather than workbench). However i can't get wizball to run and also it...

Just tried VICE on my PC and Wizball is better on the C64. From the fake guitar riff and all the 8 bit sound effects to the graphics and the sensitivity of the joystick. It's just one of those games...

@Harrison
You're not reading the previous posts again are you? :rolleyes:We've done the VICE thing and now we're seeing which is the fastest.:p

@TiredOfLife
Can't even get to any sort of...

I've downloaded Magic64 1.81 from aminet and it crashes on 3.9. when i try to use it OS4.0 it works to a degree (I get the loading screen for Wizball then it freezes). However it is also time limited...

Does Magic64 require a keyfile? and if so does anyone have one? and is 1.81 the last version?

Thanks for letting me know. I now know that my CV64/3D is not hindering me too much then.

Unfortunatly the C64 version would only run at 50-60% so i couldn't truly compare the two but i think the controls on the Amiga version are more sluggish and less delicate than what i remember of the...

Possibly nostalgia and rose tinted glasses or just sometimes simple is better. It's one of those things that is hard to quantify. Tell you what i'll try both and see which i prefer.

I know what you mean i have Wizball for the Ami but it was far better on C64. Thanks for reminding me I'll have to D/L that and check it out.

VICE runs at around 80-105% speed on my system. I'd forgotten the old start up music to C64 Elite. Boy did that give me a flashback. The C128 emulator is somewhat buggy and needs a AmigaOne to run as...

I tried waprNES but couldn't get anything to work. I'll give OS4 versions a try as WarpOS is tempremental. Managed to get hatari working and tried some of the earlier TOS/GEM images and i have to say...

Just downloaded VICE for OS4 and it runs pretty fast. Had a quick go at Uridium and about to try Project Stealth Fighter and Elite128which will be a good judge of the speed as the C64 and C128 were...

I did get Shapeshifter to work and had MACOS7 running as the hdf was on one of the last Amiga Format CD's and PCTask also worked but it has to be said i would have liked to get WIN95 or 98 to run....

I'm curious. Does anyone use any emulators on their Amiga. I use ZXAM occaisionally but have never been able to get a good C64 emulator running at a good speed. And then i just had a qick look at...
