#Wanna make games?
2 messages in this thread
Christian,
I need the AGA for the 256 colors. Ask yourself: how many games really
use the AGA chipset ? How many A1200 games aren't just PC conversions or A500
enhancements? It's time to change that!!! Yeah!!! Anyway, we could do an A500
conversion later. But as you should know, by using EHB you loose speed and
memory…
I think the ideal computer for my project is an A1200 with at least
2meg chip and of course a HardDrive. Almost every A1200 owner has an A1200 2meg
with HD (I think).
So what's your programming level? I have a book about how to have acces
to AGA, so it shouldn't be a problem for that. Anyway, I'll contact you in one
month (I'm on holyday during the month of August). Thanks for answering the
message. By this time, I'll be able to tell you more about how we will get
organized to build the whole think…

Diego,

I agree, I agree. 256 colors would be nice. I am just complaining because I
do not have AGA. That is why I am hoping for a two graphics version game.

I am against that. That would mean to keep in mind 1 Meg RAM and no harddrive
and 68000 etc. in mind. That should not be the goal. The beginning should be
not to mind hardware restrictions and then go from there . . .

But why not requiring at least 1 Meg Fast RAM? That would speed things up.

Oh, oh, pretty poor. I have done some AMOS but then I started to study (which
I stopped by now) and did only very little 80×86 assembler. I will learn C in
fall. (That is why I am lurking around in this forum.)
I have got a lot of ideas and since I have got a very good business education I
may be able to handle some organisation and administration stuff.
Bye, Christian
