Lemmingssdl (Networked)

Foxblock has made a .pnd file available...though he says it seems to run a bit slow...now, if only I had a Pandora then I could go about trying to fix it!

Sound and gameplay is perfect, yeah. Only a bit slow, but looking reeeeaaally good

Will check it out Im loving the recent addition of some classic, casual games (and my girlfriend likes it to I must add )

Works really nicely bar the slight speed loss. Thanks for all the hard work

Hi there,

I've just watched ED's new video and I think it runs about the right speed - I.E. I think this is ready to have it's 'WIP' status removed! It's ready for proper release...or at least beta-testing

Yes- but that was using 800 MHz

HHmmmm, Foxbloc said to me that ramping up the CPU speed had no effect. This changes things, perhaps some optimization is in order after all...

I don't suppose you could tell me what the CPU usage is by the LemmingsSDL process please, just out of interest?

For instance on my P4 3ghz (BIG difference I know) it's only using about 6-10% of the CPU according to 'top'

I also never considered it to be a CPU problem... I just thought the game timer was running a bit slower than it should be (seconds counting down in 2 seconds, and the game felt a bit slow...)

Right. I shall do side by side comprison of the Amiga version (as that's all I have to go on) and tweak the timings until it matches.
