SH-3 VERSION OF PQ UP AND RUNNING!

[Jay]

I GOT A RELEASE VERSION OF POCKET QUAKE FOR SH-3 WORKING!  I will create a package and get it on this site as soon as Dan contacts me.  Thanks to Carpediem, Dan, and everyone else who helped me to release this.  YAY!

[Moose or Chuck]

Now just think, you'll have to do whatever you did for each release of PQ. Everyone will expect you to. ;D<br><br>Oh ya, any difference in FPS with a release build?<br>Last modification: Moose Master - 03/29/01 at 15:50:08<br>Last modification: Moose Master - 03/29/01 at 15:50:52

I'm testing the two optimizations that are currently working.  So far, it's still 3.3 fps but I've seen it get up to 5.5 so let's see.<br><br>Give me a break people, it's my first release and it was a pain too!

Ok, I finished it and it runs at 3.9 FPS although when you're actually playing it seems faster.  (to me at least)

In the big main hall? or on the timedemo tests?

OK FINAL BENCHMARKS ON SH-3 RELEASE BUILD:<br><br>BENCHMARKS DONE WITH TIMEDEMO DEMO1.DEM<br><br>Portrait: 3.9fps<br>Landscape: 2.8fps<br><br>However, it seems to run faster in mu opinion when you're actually playing.  Well, at least that's the case for portrait.  I'm not so sure about landscape.

Sorry about that repeated post, my connetion died, then came back, and re-sent all my info!

[Dan East]

Good work! What did you have to change, so I can modify the 0.06 source? We'll need a build without the debug settings. Also, enabling speed optimizations and function inlining in the C/C++ settings should speed it up some.<br><br>Dan East

[Jay]

Dan, could you talk to me on AIM or something, it'll be a lot easier.  I have a lot of stuff to explain.

[Dr. Phat]

you get stars for explaining stuff here. can your AIM do that?

[Jay]

haha, no

[Jay]

ok, I'll make this brief.  Inlining works, speed opt doesn't.  All debugging code is out.  Whenever you want it Dan.
