PSPUAE Fame WIP News

Hi, just to update you on the progress of the FAME C core intergration into PSPUAE.
Ric has been working hard, as he almost has a stable beta ready. Ric has said, that in his early stage tests, Ric has had 5 to 7 FPS more speed. His next step is make it stable enough for us to test it with some Pre-Selected games as Ric pointed out he hasnt really tried any games.

This is good news for PSPUAE, but remember, FAME C is still in the very early stages.

Cool this will be a very good improvement.
Good work Ric and the rest of the team.

what is the fame C core exactly?

**aries2k4** · November 8th, 2006, 03:22

Sounds good, this emu could use a boost up on the speed.
Keep up the good work

This is great news.

Anything that’s going to increase the speed is a welcome addition.

I still havent tried this yet (I was waiting for a ickle speed update), but when this is implimented I reckon I'll be firing it up.

Is this the same Fame C core that Chui is working on and implementing in UAE4ALL? That was updated recently on the GP2X and it had a very nice speed boost. I'm really looking forward to this. Thank you guys for your hard work.

@ The Ultimate Eggman;

dont hold your breath for too massive an improvement. There is still a long road ahead to making FAME/C and PSPUAE as efficient as possible. The new core should make future improvements easier, but i worry about people expecting immediate full-speed from the core. this WILL NOT HAPPEN!!

@ hatebreeder

the FAME core is a 68000 core, (Fast and Accurate Motorla 68k Emulation library) - it has recently been converted to C, making it useable in emualors such as PSPUAE and UAE4all. It is known to be somewhat more efficient than the UAE core used previously.

@ Baboon. Alien Breed is pretty good already :P
