new driver time!
cave 1000
test video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgnb60f2WvI*despite what is written below, all games are playable and work great*
WIP limitations: (will be fixed within the next week or 2)
0:
need 32bpp video. fixed, supports 15/16, 24 and *of course* 32bpp
1:
cpu rate selector must be 25,50,75,100% anything in-between will cause the music to screw up (especially in ddpdfk) FIXED 2: some bugs
3: even more bugs
limitatations that will not be fixed:
1: you'll need a nice cpu for this, my dumpster-find i7-2600 runs all games just fine though! If you have trouble getting 60fps, time to go pc hunting on night before garbage day! or talk to some scrappers. or try some tips below...
tips:
1: turn OFF vsync / dwm sync
2: use XAudio2 audio plugin, with 6-8 buffers
3: use auto frameskip function - it helps with audio buffering, even if frames never get skipped
bonus:
savestates work
threaded blitter thanks to Thready! (pre-cursor to towelie)
