I Have succeded in porting PocketQuake to CASIOS

[cookie319]

I want to compare the timerefresh of different clock speeds. Those with a 133, 150, 168 and 180 mhz casio's.. can you help me out?<br>please do the timerefresh at the introduction level where you spawn when you start a new game. Don't move.

v0.041 has been posted <br><br>.<br><br>

Alot of visual anomalies. It is however a little more playable. Whether all that clipping and missing sky is worth it... I don't know. I'm keeping both the 4 and 4.1 ...<br><br>2.83 timerefresh @200

sorry.. didn't mean to sound discouraging.. great work, carpe..<br><br>hey can you sorta outline what you did in your last release??

[Moose or Chuck]

Nice work carpediem. Nice idea removing some of those polygons that are behind the quake guy. Atleast I'm guessing that's what you did.<br>2.620793 on  E-125 @ 180

Carpediem: I tried your floating point converted D_PolysetCalcGradients function on the iPaq and I got a 3% improvement using the new benchmark.<br><br>Dan East

[CARPEDIEM]

Dan:<br>I think from now on we should concentrate all our efforts in turning:<br><br>void R_RecursiveWorldNode (mnode_t *node, int clipflags)<br><br>found in r_bsp.c into FixedPoint. I think that it is THE MOST processor expensive function in the whole sourcecode and it's yet not optimized, I see you've done some work but it's not implemented. Try commenting out the whole function, you will get 30+ fps on the timerefresh test. I truly believe that if that complex recursive funcion can be optimized, we could easily get at least 2 more frames per second. And even much much more.<br><br>Ohh, and version 0.041 always gives me 2.9+ fps on the test. I have an E-125 @ 200.<br>

Dude, I'm getting some static paper and overclocking like... now!  2.9 is almost double what I've got... Thanks Dan, 999, Jacco, and Seize the day.

First off id like to say Carpediem + Dan way to go, you guys rock..<br><br>Carpediem are you going to post your Mips based source code? I would like to work with the source but not have to redo everything you have done(especially the GAPI code).<br><br>FYI on my casio E125@150mhz i get 2.150470fps in the entryway, normal playing is around 4.7fps<br><br>

[CARPEDIEM]

For now im no longer working in pocketquake, i have quitted.<br><br>but give me a day to think about it, maybe i'll change my mind and keep working on the casio build, but im not sure.<br>

[Matt Keys]

Carpediem,<br><br>That came out of the blue. I hope you change your mind, it sounds like you were really getting somewhere with optimizing the code. Of course I’m sure you also have a job that pays to work on. I suppose I will respect your decision either way.<br>

[norvain]

thats too bad!! But I agree you gotta do what ya gotta do. So if you do decide to stop working on it can you please post the source somewhere so others can follow in your footsteps.

[Dr. Phat]

I'm sorry to hear that, but thanks again for your work in the ppc freeware community!

CARPEDIEM <br>Do not stop what you are got at even if i have to send you a Cheque to your Door step. I shall my mail is above.<br><br>I will like you to keep up the job working on Casio Mips Build but you can cut diwn the hours you put in.<br><br>Thnak fot all your effort and time.<br>
