MiSTer FPGA Forum

Ahh okay I see, that's a shame but thanks for the reply.

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows this great arcade shooter and if they think it would be possible to recreate in MiSTer? It's a great game, one of my favourite arcade memories.

Pretty sure I've noticed the same and you're right, the Amiga mouse was a hardware pointer so didn't slow down when the machine was busy.

But MiniMig doesn't have (yet) a pipelined IEEE 754 single/double precision FPU !

Indeed! No FPU or MMU in the 68020 series. And as you pointed out, the 040 architecture was way more sane in this area than the 030. But, still 32-bit

There were external FPU and MMU for the 68020.

Yep I'd be in too

From memory the Archimedes didn't really output at 15Khz. At least not as a general rule. I think it was somewhere between 24 and 31Khz.

Thanks for the replies. Unless I'm mistaken, I feel like my A2500 was faster for RAM disk access than the Minimig 020 option. I figured it was maybe the lack of FPU, I'm not sure. Something seems a little slow when the file count gets high. Or maybe I'm mis-remembering the 2500. Also the blitter operation at least to my recollection seems a little ...

Hi all, I remember some talk on the old forum of the possibility of a hybrid system which might use the ARM side for a PowerPC type accelerator and/or a RTG option. Is this something that would be technically feasible and if so, does anyone know if something like this is in development?
