I was a coder like 30 years ago so this brings me nostalgica. At the end I found the 64k category the most interesting one. Seeing what could be done with such limited resources....
Hi there! - Could I use a screengrab from this video to illustrate a feature I am making about the culture of Amiga Demo Parties...? It would be nice if you have other photos that would be good to illustrate the topic of modern demo-party. Thanks in advance.
@@bartmanAbyss Thanks - it's a great video and just what I need. If you would like to share a 'best memory' of modern or classic parties please let me know as the final parts of my 'party culture' series will be a collection of the best memories from these events. thanks! A 100 word paragraph or such would be great.
There's a hardware project underway that is a drop in FPGA replacement for a 68030 running at up to 1ghz. Imagine what demo coders will be able to do with that (considering that the fastest commercially released Motorola 68k chip was the 80mhz 68060 AFAIK, so more than 10 times faster than _THAT_ even).
But in 2022 using old school CPU's the limit is the challenge, it's not like iin the 1980's any upgrade possible would been seen as fair, as it was to show off what was possible at that decade.
@@tonysofla Indeed, but it does make me wonder what can be done with a 1Ghz 68030. (Another project is working on a 100mhz 6502, which could also yield some insane demos)
@@memes_gbc674 With an FPGA implementation, sure. For original chips, the 65816 variant can be clocked at 20mhz with no problem. This is the chip that the CMD "SuperCPU" used back in the old days for the C64.
This consist of 64Kbyte that is not comparable to the standard demos that takes all resources and memory. This is unbelievable, so minimal amount of code/data for such a mature demo!!
