AMD has finally posted their FSR upscaler on github: https://github.com/GPUOpen-Effects/FidelityFX-FSR It's a lanczos-based upscaler with edge-guided interpolation. Is it feasible to add it as an upscaler in dgVoodoo? The assumption of course is that it would offer higher quality upscaling than the …

Black Mirror 1 consists entirely of pre-rendered content. The "3D" characters you see in the game are all bitmap graphics, drawn as sprites. The dev's next game Ni.Bi.Ru. added realtime 3D characters, but Black Mirror didn't have that. Since everything is pre-rendered for a fixed resolution and …

Does someone know if Black Mirror 1 ( from Steam ) is actually supposed to be software-rendered? I'm running on Windows 10 64-bit, and I'm only getting what appears to be software rendering, either when running it vanilla or with dgVoodoo2. Perf is rather slow and the 3D characters have pixelated …

The Amiga contains multiple customs chips that need to be emulated along with a 68K CPU . This requires a fair amount of CPU powee. At least in the late 90s, when Pentium 1 CPUs were still relevant, there was no way to run an Amiga emulator at anything approaching usable speed . I was using Fellow …

That's what I thought. Though many say the SC-88 used SC-55 sounds, but I am guessing that doesn't apply to SCVA and only applies to the actual hardware. The instruments of the SC-88 that are common with the SC-55 sound anywhere from identical to very similar . Roland did change some things. That's …

It is true that the MIDI versions of some pieces have in-song loops that are not present in the Red Book audio versions. Examining the MIDI files, these in-song loops are accomplished by way of XMIDI controllers 116 and 117. Given that the same performance data is merely repeated, and is not even …
