Nearly running at 1GHZ.

;)

Can't get internet to work because it keeps bumping my wireless connection out when I bridge the two connections.

New build is very fast though.

Still a little slugish but its coming on really well.

What kind of processor do you have for PearPC to display such a high clockspeed? :blink:

on my XP1800+ i get a 533Mhz G3 :p

anyone noticed how anything animating onscreen takes deteriorates the performance of the emu? like when starting an app, if you hide the dock, the app starts MUCH faster because there's no icon bouncing on the dock

well i've managed to boot w/nic, but it isn't being recognize by OS X. The XP shows an active connection, and the DOS shows it is reciveing but not being filtered?

[iO/3c90x] indicate(00000010) mIntStatus now = 00000000

[iO/3c90x] acknowledge(00000010) mIntStatus now = 00000000

[iO/3c90x] EthTun: 250 bytes received. But they don't pass the filter.

[iO/3c90x] Not uploading, because: mUpStalled(=0) or UpListPtr == 0 (=00000000)

or not mRxPacketSize(=0)

Also the new build of pre.3 is slower than the one yesterday, so could someone send it to me?

You stole my idea! :angry: :angry:

:p

By the way, what are the keystrokes to get full-screen in the "other" build? I'm talking about the one that has right-click enabled. Shift-F12 doesn't work on that one.

Never mind. Got it. It's "F5".

sorry :blush: didn't mean to. i just posted because it's not just with the dock. anything that animates onscreen (even the friggin mouse) takes cpu power from the emu.

it's ok. :) I knew you didn't do it on purpose. Hence the :p below those harsh words.

so i havent gotten the green light networking problem fixed

one think i have noticed is that

if u are running ure comp at 3-3.2 ghz pearpc shows around 900-950 mhz

If u r running 1.8 ghz like i am it will show 533 mhz

BUT remember with macs the speed is doubled to equal that of an intel processor

so if ure running 533 mhz on pearpc that is actually 1066mhz

u sure i always heard that with the power pc processor that speed is doubled. Lets say u have an imac that is 200mhz that would be equal to a 400mhz pentium x processor. I really dont know if its true. But i read something about it in some Mac magazine

ppc is generally faster, but usually not 2x as fast.

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
