Not possible to use CD music? With AHI mixer?Quote:

I remember though the AHI sounds not working very well on my system with this game...
The only time i've had good sound from this game is in OS3.9 with AHI through Paula. Standard Paula has massive scratchy noises on loud sound effects and with Delfina the whole game crumbled to about 1 frame per sec, sound was crystal clear 16 bit though (albeit very quiet) :D
Only attempt on OS 4.1 was with Classic under Warp 3D emulation... and it only ran the title screens. Crashtastic random polygon attack once the level loaded. Not tried Update 5 yet though. Maybe I should...
But Wipeout 2097 is a good example of what not many dedicated people (2 coders and a graphic artist) can achieve with PPC Porting. Back in 1999 when this came out it was an amazing achievement and everyone thought it would never happen. Unfortunately Digital Images didn't last long in Amigaland (Blittersoft that published it didn't either). Infact around that time everything was looking rosy with MMC on the horizon and games like this appearing, but when Gateway suddenly pulled plug, I think that pulled the hope of many (me included) of their ever been a real comeback for Amiga commercially as well.
But Alas, I swayed off a little there :D
Maybe you need to make a poll, Mike, and try and get interest in PPC game porting/development....

Just a thought Phantom, did you do a FULL install? It wont play CD audio unless you install the game fully (around 70MB).
Hi,
Few days a go I've intalled the 4.1 Update 5 and I've found some advantages with this update like faster boot times, network/internet speed increases, smooth windows transitions and also faster HDD/DVD access. :thumbsup:
But.... none of my installed games works now :( Descent FreeSpace & Quake 2... with Update 4 these games starts & run great but now the system hungs everytime :(
Any idea?
Update: Reinstalling Quake 2 & Patch the game is running now, but FreeSpace still crashing the system even reinstalling the game...
ive had some fun. i fitted an ATI 9250 and OS4 didnt like that much.
copied the driver and ATIradeon.chip to kickstart and it wouldnt boot anymore.
so..
took it out and reinstalled OS4 again :-(
all okay now
i havent tried freespace yet but Quake 1 & 2 work fine with update5
Maybe a daft question, but how do you upgrade the RAM on the SAM 440ep? It seems you get 512MB onboard and with SOME versions you can further upgrade to 1GB (if it has a RAM socket) is yours such? I can see something looking like a RAM module?
Also, have you thought about overclocking it?
http://www.soft3dev.net/pages/hyperclock.php
Some boards have ram onboard and have no socket but mine has a socket , it uses printer ram ... Not sure if it takes 1gb but 512 is enough ..
Not over clocked it yet but I've seen the tool :-)
Ah, I noticed now yours has some components missing where the RAM should be, ok that makes sense. I just checked the Wiki and see that yours is a Revision C and it takes up to 512MB via the Printer RAM. So I guess the Rev C version is to give flexibility.
I'm also puzzled on what speed the PCI bus is, some say 33MHz, but it seems the official specs say 66MHz. I'd think a 66MHz PCI Radeon 9250 would run a little better than the onboard M9 which is 9000 Based. Mind you that might depend on the AGP speed. I'm assuming its at 1x, but it could be 2x which would mean the PCI as a video upgrade option is a bit useless (unless you want more VRAM for higher resolution etc).
Another question, have you tried WHDLoad yet? If so, does it run well?
The general opinion is that the m9 radeon is 66mhz and the pci slot is 33mhz so a graphic card gives gives you more ram rather than speed ..

It's nice and smooth if your Monitor supports 320x256 or 320x300 (normal native Amiga resolution) however if you have to run 640x480 and then stretch with filtering you need frame skip which is annoying.
For WHDLoad get your Classic Amiga out :thumbsup:
Yeah, just strange that folks say 33MHz, but all the specs i've seen say 66MHz. You'll have to tell us if there is any difference once you get your PCI card working. :)
Steve, yeah I wouldn't imagine it to be better than a REAL classic :) just wondered if it was working/usable.

actually many WHDLoad games work great under OS4.1 update 5 with either glUAE or RunInUAE which can be found over at OS4depot.
Once installed 68k programs and WHDLoad programs run with a simple double click from WB
They do I can vouch for that . Cd32 games are a bit flakey tho
