Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

Very cool to see accelerated graphics on the Raven. Et4000 does not have fancy accelerated functions. On raw isa busspeed I’m not sure if a mach32 is faster (on a isa bus). Et4000 could be faster on raw busspeed throughput at least on a pc in dos it probably is (fps DOS doom, quake). From Phil’s co...

Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

Install NVDI5 with the screensys driver in the GEMSYS Folder disable by rename these to *.syz ... NVDI must run after sta_vdi.prg and you becomes 200% speed from the Nova driver ... Yep, I run it like that. And all thanks to you I must add! Every time I've gotten stuck and needed to search for some...

Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

Received an ATI Mach32 today and holy crap... From these numbers I must assume the Nova driver is able to take advantage of that cards acceleration features. gb_mach32.jpg This was the ET4k gb_et4k.jpeg It's not a like-for-like comparison since the older ET4k benchmark was using the nvdivga driver a...

Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

I cant stress enough how phenomenal all this is. Im aware of your version of CaSTaway (which Im also still awaiting a release of to try on my Vampire v500). What I want to know is how long you have been working on this new computer system? Thank you kindly! I'm very proud, and also a bit surprised,...

Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

Nice ... How did you make it possible to make games run on the et4000 graphics card and the 060 CPU? Is it an ST-Low resolution? It runs under 'partial' software emulation - in that it can route some IO access directly to the host when it has compatible hardware. On hosts without Atari compatible g...

Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

Is it a proper Atari now? :)



It's a work in progress based on my Vampire port of Castaway.
There's no frame-pacing yet so the emulator runs much too fast -- but I thought it was awesome when the first ST game booted and wanted to share anyways :)

Re: Raven. A homemade Atari-like computer

I think there is a law somewhere stating that all hardware must be able to run Doom.
Thus...



Bottlenecked by access speed to graphics card. But it's expected.
